Ms. Livy Ludington <br /> Triangle Land Conservancy <br /> Orange County Chair <br /> 304 Ray Road <br /> Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27514 <br /> Dear Livy: , <br /> We are encouraged to see that there is high probability to finance an <br /> Orange County natural areas inventory this year. The North Carolina Natural <br /> Heritage Program offers its assistance to Triangle Land Conservancy and <br /> Orange County to help organize and supervise a countywide inventory of <br /> special natural areas, biological resources, and rare and endangered <br /> species. - <br /> • We are willing to contribute our program's time and expertise to assist <br /> the Orange County natural areas inventory project in the following ways: <br /> - selection of qualified biologists to be contracted to conduct the <br /> inventory; <br /> - training and supervision of the biologists; <br /> - provision of inventory report formats and content specifications; <br /> - monitor the progress of the.project; <br /> - help to assure completion of a high-quality inventory report; <br /> - review and edit the inventory report for accuracy; and <br /> - evaluate identified natural areas for overall state and regional <br /> ecological significance. <br /> The enclosed document elaborates on the North Carolina Natural Heritage <br /> Program's experience and procedures for supervising and conducting natural <br /> areas inventories. We estimate the value of our contributed supervisory <br /> participation in the Orange County project to be at least $2,000 (for . <br /> professional services of Natural Heritage Program staff). That sum should <br /> be considered "in-kind services" and added with Triangle Land Conservancy's <br /> contributions to "match" other sources of project funding from the county <br /> and municipalities. <br /> P.O.
