Review of law and agency policy relating to the management of threatened, endangered, and sensitive species. Particular attention will be paid to building appropriate administrative records of decisions, and the roles of all the players.

Challenging case studies are used to explore managing TES species across landscapes and jurisdictions in an effort to develop best management practices.
