Operation Grassland Community's website describes their program as follows:
"OGC has more than 340 members who steward land throughout the grassland region of Alberta. Each year, we seek new members who have species at risk located on their lands, and/or have significant parcels of native prairie habitats. Each new member agrees to take part in a voluntary stewardship agreement to protect these species at risk and their habitats.
"Membership is voluntary and strictly confidential - only with permission from the landholder would we share information about the landholder or species residing on their lands. Members also retain all rights for their lands as expressed prior to their membership in Operation Grassland Community. Membership is renewed every 5 years. . This renewal process ensures members are kept abreast of needs for SAR on their lands, and renews their commitment to protecting habitat for these species."
We hope that landowners in the grassland region of Alberta, expecially those with Species At Risk, will contact Operation Grassland Community for more information on this voluntary program.
Operation Grassland Community recognizes the conservation efforts of landowners in southern Alberta. Operated by the Alberta Fish & Game Association, this inovative focuses on maintaining and improving habitat for grassland species, especially Burrowing Owls and Loggerhead Shrikes.
