The United States, Canada and Australia mounted last minute objections to a compromise deal on the project but finally joined a consensus in favor since they could not have won if they forced a rare vote by International Atomic Energy Agency governors, diplomats in the closed meeting said. Syria's request for technical aid in planning a nuclear power plant, a rubber-stamp matter for many IAEA member nations, caused a political tug-of-war after an agency report suggesting Damascus might have tried to build a nuclear reactor in secret. The November 19 report said a Syrian building demolished in an Israeli air raid last year bore similarities to a nuclear reactor and uranium particles, possibly remnants of pre-enriched nuclear fuel, had been found in the area. But it cautioned that the findings, based on U.S. satellite intelligence and one on-site IAEA inspection, were preliminary and more investigation, as well as Syrian documentation to prove its denials of illicit work, were essential to draw conclusions. Major Western nations wanted the project axed, saying it would be "totally inappropriate" as long as Syria was being investigated over fears it tried to build a reactor with North Korean help designed to produce plutonium for atomic bombs. Russia, China and developing states, influentially backed by IAEA Director Mohamed ElBaradei, countered that there was no legal basis for denying a country aid for civilian atomic energy unless proliferation accusations were proven. SPECIAL SCRUTINY The text of a compromise adopted by the IAEA board of governors said the project, to be carried out from 2009 to 2011, would be under close monitoring with extra care taken to ensure equipment provided could not be diverted to military uses. It also provided for governors to be able to reconsider the Syria study in future if the inquiry found Damascus to be in "non-compliance" with safeguard rules, as North Korea and Iran were previously, which led to cut-offs of IAEA aid. An official chairman's summary of the three-day debate noted the "strong reservations" of some states about granting Syria atomic benefits before it opened up fully to IAEA investigation. "(We) agreed to the project based on the understanding that in light of further developments, (we) have the right to revisit the issue pursuant to the (IAEA) statute," it said, meaning the project could be killed if a nuclear cover-up was confirmed. "We've made our point -- this Syrian project is now under the spotlight and will remain under the spotlight," said a senior Western diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity. Other diplomats said the outcome was a victory for ElBaradei and Syria and a slap in the face of the United States, which has skirmished with ElBaradei for years over what it sees as his "soft" attitude toward suspected proliferators such as Iran. "The U.S. had to back down while ElBaradei, Syria and international law prevailed, the principle that any party is innocent until proven guilty," said one of those diplomats. Continued...

The balmy part first. Two-and-a-half years ago, the country was gifted a separate ministry dedicated to further develop and popularise ayurveda along with a few other indigenous medicinal systems. Thus came Ayush in November 2014 after the present government upgraded a department by the same name. This fiscal, that ministry's budgetary allocation was raised by 8 per cent—to Rs 1,428.65 crore.
Now the flip side. For all the apparent boost, the new ministry's media machines have failed to evoke sufficient public awareness and confidence in ayurvedic treatment to get people to use the services of its clinics in cities and villages. Notwithstanding its millennia-old history of healing, this 'way of life' remains the second or last alternative to allopathic treatment for most Indians. Why has the system that uses natural resources failed to satisfy even those who would rather not opt for allopathic treatment?
To a large extent, the blame goes to a lack of focused administrative attention and non-existence of an enabling policy environment and the absence of scientific standardisation of the medicines. Health being a state subject, the Centre only makes overarching guidelines. It is for the states to implement them. The Drug and Cosmetics Act has a provision for ayurvedic medicine. But the herbal drugs and bhasmas produced under the science are specific to different states. This often results in drugs without proof of efficacy. "We have no fixed standard for trial of ayurvedic drugs," says an ex-official of the ministry. "Drug firms may show trial data on just a handful of patients and are still eligible to get a licence for mass production."
An 18th-century Nepalese ayurvedic drawing on human body anatomy
This, when the Indian ayurvedic drug market is estimated to be growing at a compound rate of 16 per cent every year. Yet, there is almost no regulation on advertising of ayurvedic products. Result: consumers are often duped into believing exaggerated claims of cure. A recent example is BGR-34, a blood-glucose regulator, jointly developed by CSIR-NBRI and CSIR-CIMAP. The drug went into mass production and has been a runaway hit. A lawyer, Manu Govind, has challenged the manufacturers in the Kerala High Court, alleging the claims weren't backed by technical or clinical data.
Dr Anand Srinivasan, chairman of the Delhi-based Maharishi Ayurveda Hospital, says most manufacturing units for such drugs are substandard. "India has more than three lakh manufacturing plants for ayurvedic drugs. Only 20-30 of them produce drugs that might meet required standards," he says. "Most others are one-room set-ups."
This is one of the major reasons that leave patients ineligible for insurance cover when it comes to ayurvedic treatments—even from reputed hospitals. "No standards for cost of procedure is available," says a medical insurer. "Most of such treatments can easily fall under 'experimental' category."
Since herbs are their components, ayurveda drugs have been deprived of recognition from the US Food and Drug Authority or other international bodies. This, however, can be "easily rectified" by changing the guidelines for drug trials, according to the former Ayush official. "We need to develop a format of standardisation that follows the rules of ayurveda instead of that of allopathy. By using traditional knowledge and presenting it in international forums, we can seek accreditation for mass distribution of such drugs in a more organised manner."
The onus for research and development of new ayurvedic drugs, too, lies almost solely in the hands of the government. The Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS) under Ayush is responsible for the development of drugs and creating a nuanced understanding of ayurveda principles. Dr Neera Vyas, deputy D-G of the 1978-formed CCRAS, rues laxity in promoting research since the new ministry was formed by upgrading a 1995-constituted Department of Indian Systems of Medicine and Homeopathy, which was renamed Ayush in 2003. "There still don't exist guidelines for the testing and development of drugs under the ministry," she says.
Another CCRAS official says most trials undertaken in the organisation do not last more than three months, and often do not conclude anything new or ground-breaking. "Our research into ayurveda is not improving upon the existing principles in texts," he states. "Several western countries are doing better work in understanding the basics."
Three years ago, the Narendra Modi administration floated a mission to create a data-bank of information on ayurvedic treatments and compositions of medicines, many of which are now lost or not available in full. The country has 350 ayurveda colleges recognised by the Central Council for Indian Medicine (CCIM). Most students opt to study ayurveda only as a second option—after MBBS. On completion of the ayurveda degree, many graduates practise allopathic medicine—something allowed in states like Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. Some study further and become nurses in hospitals.
The total number of seats available for bachelors in ayurveda in the country stands at around 17,000—a number growing every year, as more colleges are accredited. Yet, admission trends suggest that about one-sixth of these seats remain vacant. The syllabus excludes practical knowledge; there's no mention of the ways of making the herbal potions. What's more, the courses have an overarching influence of allopathy.
Points out Kerala-based Dr M.S. Valiathan, a renowned cardiologist who took to ayurveda recently: "Mixing our traditional teaching with allopathy only sullies the sciences, giving students half-baked knowledge about ayurveda." Ravi P.V. is pursuing a course in an 'alternative medicine' in Tamil Nadu, having failed to get through to a medical college. Does this ayurveda student in Coimbatore wish to set up his own practice subsequently? Ravi shrugs and says, "I think I'll do a small course in nursing after this so that I can get a job in a hospital."
Vineetha Muralikumar, president of the CCIM which is the ayurvedic counterpart of the Medical Council of India and is responsible for vetting colleges as well as registration of ayurvedic doctors in the country, says a mix of traditional medicine and allopathy has become "important". "The government needs to ensure that the ayurvedic practitioners have at least basic knowledge of allopathy." According to her, low availability of doctors in rural Maharashtra and UP is leading many ayurveda practitioners to treat patients with allopathic medicines.
Vinod Kumar, an ayurvedic doctor from Kerala, says the syllabus in ayurveda colleges is stale. "It deprives students of knowledge about new discoveries. There must be constant updating," he says.
Ayurveda laureate Padmaja Ramachandran, also from the same southern state, regrets a decline in the number of books taught in ayurveda courses. "When I was a student a few decades ago, we had to learn every shloka in the Ashtanga Hridayam, which is the most crucial text for ayurveda. We also had supplementary reading material, which is not present anymore," she says. The result: an inevitable decline in the quality of present-generation doctors from colleges.
The Ayush ministry rules prescribe that INStitutes comply with certain requirements, be it with the teaching staff or with beds in the attached hospital and its patient inflow. The biggest problem, to some, is a dearth of quality teachers. "Over the past few years, duplication of teachers has been a major issue," says Dr Vineetha. "Several teachers have registered themselves in different states, showing an exaggerated number of staff available in states as well as colleges." This means that many of the colleges are fudging the strength of its teaching faculty to get accreditation. Efforts are on to rectify the situation by issuing identity numbers to teachers, says Dr Vineetha. But the process is long drawn.
Sadly, the national health programme policy released by the government does not mention ayurveda. The Trauma Centre under Delhi's All India Institute of Medical Sciences, taking a leaf from global counterparts, has now joined hands with the Defence and Research Development Organisation to test the efficacy of herbal products in treating wounds. A small but significant step.

Newcastle United
Mario Balotelli interest shows Newcastle United's transfer desperation in January
Newcastle United fans know not to expect much from the January transfer window, though reports from the Mirror claim that the Magpies may consider a move for Mario Balotelli as he looks to leave Nice.
Balotelli appears certain to depart the Ligue 1 club but his destination remains unclear, with Newcastle now seemingly leading the race for him in terms of Premier League clubs.
However, it seems a strange decision, given the disciplinary nature of manager Rafa Benitez, to sign a player who is as unpredictable as Balotelli and who has previously failed to produce the goods at Liverpool.
Fans may point to the Italian's better form for Manchester City, but they too would know that Balotelli would seemingly be just a short-term fix. In any case, moving for him would be a gamble.
Currently only two points above the drop zone and with only 15 goals scored, only Huddersfield have scored fewer and it is clear that bringing in a goalscorer must be a priority with the limited funds available.
Balotelli, who has not scored in any of his 10 appearances this season, would be a real wildcard for Newcastle. Benitez is not the kind of coach to take such gambles.

If you fancy trying something a bit different in August, sowing salad rocket and parsley is a good idea. If sown in pots it can be brought into the greenhouse as winter marches on, and you can continue to crop. If you are feeling a little lazy but use lots of summer herbs all year round – try buying live herbs from the supermarket (parsley, basil, coriander) and replant in troughs filled with compost. As you transplant tease out the stems and these will grow into larger plants in the bigger trough. You will need about three live supermarket plants per trough to make sure you have loads of fresh herbs to keep cropping and using in the kitchen.
JUNE is one of the busiest months of the year in both the garden and on the allotment. Whilst everything is taking advantage of the warmer weather, the plants are growing – but so are the weeds ! June signifies the commencement of the battle against the weeds – and the more you get on top of them now, the easier it will be over the remainder of the growing season. Weeds will compete for moisture, light and space and 'hog it all', to the detriment of your carefully sown and planted younger more tender crops. So – here's our top weeding tips…..if you don't want to resort to chemical weedkillers.
• Hoe regularly to reduce young weeds whilst the roots are shallow. Hoe when its dry so that the cut weeds will die back quickly. If the soil is damp – collect the severed weeds up so that they don't re-grow.
• Don't let weeds flower – by doing so they will regenerate and provide a new crop of weeds. Don't put any perennial weeds on the compost as they can live to fight another day. Put them on the bonfire, garden bin or green recycling centre.
• Try using lightproof membranes to reduce weed growth and spread surface mulch to suppress weed growth – this is a good technique around the base of fruit bushes and raspberry canes.
JUNE and JULY are good months for experimenting with sweet potatoes and edible flowers – including chicory, rocket, dill, oregano and borage. Do research though as some – potato, pepper and tomato – are actually poisonous.
As JUNE moves into JULY the emphasis is still on weeding, watering and mulching in an effort to give your crops the optimum growing conditions. July is also a good time to do some summer pruning, particularly of fruit trees and bushes, just after they finish cropping – cherries, currants, summer raspberries, gooseberries.
Watering effectively with a good soaking rather than a meagre sprinkling is best – even if it is done less often, it gets down to the roots where the plants can make more use of it. Best done at the start or end of the day – rather than in the height of the sun. If you have a large area to water try doing some in the morning and some later in the evening, so that it doesn't become so much of a chore and given a good soaking most things only really need watering every few days.
Summer herbs are in abundance in JULY, and it is also a good time to start drying and storing them. Marjoram, thyme and mint are all good stored in jars once dried in the summer sun.
By the time AUGUST is on its way, onions, garlic and shallots should all be ready for harvesting this month and it is a good idea to loosen the soil around the roots before lifting. Once lifted lay them on the ground or on upside down meshed containers to let the air circulate and dry them off for storing. Storing onions and shallots can be a problem if you don't have much space in a cool dry shed – but empty hanging baskets is a really good space saving way to store. Just put a couple of hooks into the roof timber of your shed or garage and hang the baskets of onions. They are easy to get to throughout the winter, but do remember to check over every now and again and remove any that have gone soft or sprouted.
This is also a good time to sow some crops that will survive winter and be available for early next year. For example spinach, chard, leeks, spring cabbage, kale and broad beans are all ok to go into the ground now and be ready for mid April next year – just remember to mark out where you put them and not accidentally dig them over in late winter/early spring ! There are some lovely colourful varieties of chard and kale which are not only great for cooking with, but also very ornamental in the flower beds as well.

Spread out on 49 acres is a Labor Day tradition that has just about anything you could ask for — from sandcastles to sausage subs, from horses to Holsteins. The 152nd Annual Woodstock Fair, held every Labor Day weekend, began on Friday and concludes tomorrow.
Spread out on 49 acres is a Labor Day tradition that has just about anything you could ask for — from sandcastles to sausage subs, from horses to Holsteins.
Spread out on 49 acres is a Labor Day tradition that has just about anything you could ask for — from sandcastles to sausage subs, from horses to Holsteins.
The 152nd annual Woodstock Fair, held every Labor Day weekend, began on Friday and concludes tomorrow. The fair is sponsored by The Woodstock Agricultural Society and draws throngs from across New England to admire antique tractors and cars; sample fairground delicacies such as fried dough, fried Oreos or french fries; enjoy carnival rides and midway games; or participate in agricultural competitions or go-cart races.
One of the biggest draws is the Barnyard Babies exhibit, where cows that are due to calve are brought so fairgoers may witness a live birth. As of Saturday, there were six calves born at the fair this year. Also present are ducks and ducklings, goats and kids, and alpacas and crias.
Don Hibbard, of Hibbard Farms, was explaining to a crowd gathered outside the Birthing Center yesterday what happens to the calves once they are born, as one of the youngest calves moved on shaky legs from each child and adult with an outstretched hand.
The fair's newest exhibit — "The Great Pumpkin" — drew people to admire the large gourds that will move on to other competitions. Inside the exhibition hall, fruit, vegetable and photography exhibits were on display.
And what fair wouldn't be complete without horse, pony or tractor pulls?
"The main feature here year after year is the agriculture," said Douglas Young, president of the Woodstock Agricultural Society. "The fair was developed to celebrate the harvest. We have vegetable competitions, fruit competitions, dairy cows, beef, sheep and poultry, and it's all to celebrate the vibrant agricultural community."
This year's fair was fortunate enough to have a streak of clear, warm weather, and while Mr. Young doesn't expect this year's attendance to break any records, he said it did pull a steady stream of people to the fairgrounds.
However, more important than a favorable forecast for a successful fair, Mr. Young said, are the hundreds of volunteers, ranging from the volunteer firefighters manning the first aid stations to the local nonprofit organizations and churches that make the fair happen.
"This is about educating people about agriculture," Mr. Young said, looking at seven pregnant cows in the Birthing Center. "You need to keep people informed. You really have to survive."
The fair offers something for everyone, and many families have made it a tradition to either meet there or return together year after year.
Millie Jones of Storrs, Conn., returned this year with her daughter and son-in-law, granddaughter and four great-grandchildren. The four generations sat at a picnic table yesterday sampling the fair's food — baked potato, corn dog, and, in a closed bag, the one thing they come for every year — the "big doughnuts."
"They offer so many different things, but we come for the food," said Cindy Schaffer of Ashford, Conn. "It's our family tradition."
Standing outside a demonstration tent, Aime Liggett of Somers, Conn., returned to the fair for the first time in years with her two children — Alasdair, 2, and Olivia, 9 months — and her husband, Keith.
"We're introducing the third generation," said Paul Bessette, Mrs. Liggett's father.
"It's great to see the fair through his eyes," Mrs. Liggett said, holding Alasdair.
Jessie Friedrich of Uncasville, Conn., has been bringing her three granddaughters to the fair for the last 10 years.
"We give their parents the weekend off," Mrs. Freidrich said as she ate ice cream with her youngest granddaughter, Lauren, 8. She was to meet up with her oldest two grandchildren, both 12, and her husband, who made a beeline to the antique tractors as soon as he entered the gate.
"I'm very traditional when it comes to fairs," Mrs. Freidrich said. "I like to bring my granddaughters here, to take them away from the iPods, and bring them back to nature. This brings you back, and I want them to remember that."

LONDON — Britain's Parliament grabbed control Monday of the government's efforts to leave the European Union, challenging the country's political traditions and inflicting on Prime Minister Theresa May a rebuke not suffered by any recent predecessor.
By stepping into the process known as Brexit and trying to define an alternative path, lawmakers could create a constitutional showdown in Britain, where the government normally controls the agenda in Parliament, especially on its most pressing issues.
Parliament passed an amendment giving itself the power to vote on alternatives to the government's Brexit plan. Its attempt to take control of the process came as Mrs. May prepared for a last-ditch effort to persuade lawmakers to support her withdrawal plan, which has already been rejected twice by huge margins.
On Monday she admitted that there was "not sufficient support" to make another quick attempt to push it through, though she might try again on Thursday.
Mrs. May's grip on power is ebbing, with members of her cabinet openly discussing contradictory Brexit policies, rumors swirling of a plot to replace her and several of her Conservative Party lawmakers calling on her to name a date for her departure from power. She has already said she will not lead the party into the next general election scheduled for 2022.
What Is Brexit? And What Happens Next?
The basics of Brexit, the troubled plan for Britain to quit the European Union.
The latest maneuvers come at the start of a week that was supposed to see Britain leaving the European Union, something that Mrs. May had promised more than 100 times would happen on March 29. Instead, Britain will remain at least until April 12, though what happens thereafter is anyone's guess at the moment.
Nonetheless, this week is shaping up to be critical, both for Mrs. May and for those who oppose her withdrawal plan from the bloc, which would provide for a status quo transition period but would eventually aim to take Britain out of Europe's main economic structures.
Last week, European Union leaders granted an extension on the March 29 deadline for departure but not on the terms Mrs. May sought. They agreed to a short delay to May 22, if she can get a deal through Parliament this week. If that fails, then Britain will either have to request a longer extension and take part in elections to the European Parliament — something Mrs. May has rejected — or quit without any agreement on April 12.
Parliament's attempt to take control was led by Oliver Letwin, a veteran Conservative lawmaker, and is driven largely by fear of leaving without an agreement, a rupture that could leave ports jammed and cause huge economic dislocation. A "no deal" Brexit remains the default option if the deadlock in Britain continues, and the risks of it happening by accident are increasing.
Richard Harrington, who had warned of the risks of leaving the European Union without an agreement, resigned his post as business minister in Mrs. May's cabinet in order to support the amendment.
In a hard-hitting resignation letter, Mr. Harrington said that "the government's approach to Brexit is playing Russian roulette with the lives and livelihoods of the vast majority of people in this country."
Under the amendment brought forth by Mr. Letwin, which passed by a vote of 329 to 302, Parliament will hold a series of votes on Wednesday on alternatives to Mrs. May's plan.
These could include a so-called "soft Brexit" that would keep Britain tied into European economic structures; a second referendum, revoking Brexit completely; or leaving without any deal.
Speaking before lawmakers passed the amendment, Mrs. May said she could not commit to honoring the outcome of any of these nonbinding parliamentary votes, particularly if they contradicted the pro-Brexit stance in the Conservative Party's manifesto for the 2017 general election.
After the vote, the government responded with a statement that said that the amendment "upends the balance between our democratic institutions and sets a dangerous, unpredictable precedent for the future."
Mrs. May is still hoping that no alternative will command more support than her blueprint, giving her a realistic shot at pushing her plan through by presenting it as the only alternative to a no-deal Brexit or a long extension.
Critics think that Mrs. May is favoring the interests of her Conservative Party by being willing to contemplate a no-deal Brexit — something hard-line pro-Brexit Tory lawmakers back — over a cross-party effort to produce a softer Brexit that might win approval from Parliament but would split the Tories and possibly precipitate a second election.
On the other hand, moderate voices in the party complain that allowing a no-deal Brexit against much opposition would be a risky move that could haunt the party for years to come.
The leader of the opposition Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, said that he would support the push for a series of so-called indicative votes on other options for Brexit, telling lawmakers that it was "time for Parliament to take control."
On Saturday a demonstration in favor of a second Brexit referendum brought hundreds of thousands of people onto the streets of London, while more than five million people have signed an online petition to end Brexit, something the government could do unilaterally.
Despite all her problems, Mrs. May still seems safe from an immediate leadership challenge.
But some of her pro-Brexit critics say they might vote for her deal if she promises to stand aside soon and let someone else take over for the next phase of Brexit talks that will determine Britain's trade ties. That could put pressure on her to announce a departure date.
Demonstrably, discipline has almost completely broken down inside the government and there is a feeling among many at Westminster that something has to give soon.
On Sunday, the chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Hammond, described a second referendum, something Mrs. May has refused to entertain, as a "coherent proposition" that deserved consideration. His colleague, the Brexit secretary Stephen Barclay, said that if Parliament voted for a soft Brexit plan, it could precipitate a general election.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO LUKE - Chapter 19 - Verse 22
Verse 22. Out of thine own mouth. By your own statement, or your own views of my character. If you knew that this was my character, and knew that I would be rigid, firm, and even severe, it would have been the part of wisdom in you to have made the best use of the money in your power; but as you knew my character beforehand, and was well acquainted with the fact that I should demand a strict compliance with your obligation, you have no right to complain if you are condemned accordingly.
We are not to suppose that God is unjust or austere; but what we are to learn from this is, that as men know that God will be just, and will call them to a strict account in the day of judgment, they ought to be prepared to meet him, and that they cannot then complain if God should condemn them.
{p} "Out of thine" 2 Sa 1:16; Job 15:6; Mt 12:37; 22:12; Ro 3:19

In my review of the book
The Price is Great by Alejandro Mijares Ortiz
posted on Amazon.co.uk, I gave it 2 Stars.
Here is my review.
The price may be great but the book isn't
Hiding in this book are some good points that summarise research on how we respond to prices. Even though it's short, it would be worthwhile and rated at 3 stars. Add in more research and examples and the rating can go up to 4 stars.
However it's very hard to absorb the ideas because of the way the book is written. It is impossible to recommend even as a Kindle Unlimited download. The price of the physical book is ridiculous.
Note to the author. Get yourself a good editor who will be cruel to be kind. Sentences are badly constructed, paragraphs are too long and there are spelling mistakes. It will be a painful process but you'll finish with a much better book.There are many thousand of business books, you can see the full list of my reviews at Business Books Reviews by Paul Simister (Please click).

Environmental Defense Fund (an ILE stakeholder) Recommendations are For the Birds
[Source: world-wire.com]
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management is taking action to reduce fatal collisions with thousands of miles of public land structures by western birds that the Obama administration is considering for listing under the Endangered Species Act. These western birds are the Columbian sharp-tailed grouse, greater sage-grouse, and lesser prairie-chicken.
"Listing these birds under the Endangered Species Act is likely to have long-term negative impacts on livestock grazing and energy development in the west because restrictions on land use may be required to save these species," said Ted Toombs, Rocky Mountain Regional Director of Environmental Defense Fund's Center for Conservation Incentives. "By taking action now to reduce the death threat of fencing to these birds, the Bureau of Land Management is making a smart, inexpensive taxpayer investment that can produce immediate benefits."
Several studies have shown wire fencing to be a main cause of mortality for sage-grouse and lesser prairie chickens because they can't see the thin wires and fly into them. In the results of an ongoing study released late in October 2009, during a 31-month period, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department documented 146 instances of finding sage-grouse feathers or carcasses on or near a 4.7-mile section of barbed-wire fence near Farson in western Wyoming. Subsequent research concluded that colored tags helped sage-grouse avoid flying into the fence. Fence collisions were attributed to more than 33 percent of lesser prairie-chicken mortalities in a 2004 Oklahoma/New Mexico study.
The BLM's directive to its western field offices are similar to recommendations Environmental Defense Fund made in a January report. Recommendations in the BLM directive include:
If bird mortality due to collision with fences is documented, or if collisions are likely to occur due to new fence placement, implement appropriate actions to mitigate impact. Such actions might include marking key sections of the fence with permanent marking or other suitable means.
All Field Offices shall consider marking new fences in sage-grouse, sharp-tailed grouse, or prairie-chicken habitat and should identify marking fences as part of the cost of new fencing projects (see for example, State of Montana guidelines at http://fwp.mt.gov/content/getItem.aspx?id=34461).
- To reduce the impact of new fences on sage-grouse, Field Offices will ensure that new fence proposals, including those for emergency stabilization and rehabilitation, are carefully evaluated for sage-grouse collision risk, and are sited in a manner consistent with conservation measures in the State Sage-grouse Conservation Plan.
- All Field Offices are to identify priority areas for flagging or marking existing fences to avoid collisions (nesting, leks, ridge tops, etc.) For reference, see: http://www.mt.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/ecs/biology/sagegrouse/dontfence.html.
- In the process of prioritizing areas for flagging or marking fences, state wildlife agency personnel shall be consulted.
- When flagging or marking, consult visual resource management leads to determine markings that are most appropriate for the site.
- To promote cost effective efforts and maximize potential benefits to bird populations, monitoring should be conducted to further document the specific fence segments that should be flagged or marked.
- Select a set of marked fences for monitoring to determine the adequacy of the marking.
Wind Energy Associated Structures
- To reduce the risk of collisions, avoid the use of guy wires for turbine or MET tower supports. All existing guy wires should be marked with recommended bird deterrent devices.
- The siting of new temporary MET towers must be avoided within 2 miles of active sage-grouse leks, unless they are out of the direct line of sight of the active lek.
"There are thousands of miles of public land fences in the 15 states where these birds live, so this action literally could significantly reduce mortalities for these species," concluded Toombs.
Environmental Defense Fund, a leading national nonprofit organization, represents more than 700,000 members. Since 1967, Environmental Defense Fund has linked science, economics, law and innovative private-sector partnerships to create breakthrough solutions to the most serious environmental problems.
