(These various categories are usually referred to collectively as special status plants species.) The Idaho Natural Heritage Program maintains a master data list and GIS mapping effort for special status plants occurring in Idaho. The Idaho Natural Heritage Program performs the following kinds of functions: Research, monitoring and inventory of species or habitats of special concern; implementation of habitat improvement projects, development and implementation of species conservation and recovery plans; environmental education; conservation projects for native plant communities, and eradication of noxious and other weeds in special habitat areas. In addition, administration and management of rare species tabular and spatial data are a central activity of the Idaho Natural Heritage Program. With assistance from the Idaho Natural Heritage Program, the BLMs CDAFO Plant Conservation/Restoration Program will be implemented through a variety of important projects throughout the CDAFO management area such as resource inventory, monitoring, and research; environmental education; habitat and plant community restoration; and tabular and spatial data administration and management. The focus will be on special status species inventory and monitoring; conservation/restoration actions; species or habitat information needs for developing activity plans; habitat restoration planning or implementation; habitat project maintena
