The Army prepares an annual T&E report that summarizes data from a variety of sources including the T&E species portion of the Army Environmental Database - Environmental Quality (AEDB-EQ) system. The AEDB-EQ is one of the means by which installations report annually to the Department of the Army headquarters on a variety of natural resource and environmental issues. The report also includes information on SAR, migratory birds and much more.
The USAEC T&E and migratory bird team provides technical support and guidance to installations and Army Commands regarding Endangered Species Act (ESA), Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) conservation, management and compliance issues. We also scan the Federal Register for ESA, MBTA and BGEPA announcements to alert installations of proposed ESA listings/critical habitat designations and regulatory updates/changes that may affect mission activities.
