Marbled Murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus)
(MAMU) are listed as Threatened in Canada by
the Committee on the Status of Endangered
Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) (Hull 1999 in
Deal and Smart 2004). Marbled Murrelets are
identified on Schedule 1 of the Canadian Species
at Risk Act (SARA), and are on British
Columbia?s provincial Red List (Conservation
Data Centre, 2005). As a result of the status, the
British Columbia government has made the
conservation of Marbled Murrelet habitat a
priority, which will be implemented, in part,
through the provisions of the Identified Wildlife
Management Strategy (IWMS) under the Forest
Practices Code (FPC). The Forest Range and
Practices Act of British Columbia (FRPA)
provides direction in Section 7 of the Planning
Practices Regulation that sufficient amounts,
distribution and attributes for species at risk will
be conserved on crown forest land in BC.
(Province of B.C. 2004). Section 7 notices
outlining amount, distribution and attributes for
species at risk were approved in the summer of
2004.
