This information is useful in operational planning and decision making to support consideration of material adverse effect. This dataset includes a disturbance metric for Wildlife Habitat Areas (WHA) and Ungulate Winter Ranges (UWR). The dataset reports percentage disturbance at the WHA and UWR level and identifies areas as being low, medium, or high risk, depending on the level of disturbance. This information supports consideration of WHA and UWR in decision making under the Environmental Protection and Management Regulation. Field validation of this data is encouraged in development planning.</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;"><SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:7 0 7 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>The Wildlife Annual Status dataset was initially developed by the BC Energy Regulator for consideration disturbance within WHA and UWR in Northeast BC.
