Information for Planning and Conservation System

 The IPaC system is designed for easy, public access to information about the natural resources for which the Service has trust or regulatory responsibility. Examples include Threatened and Endangered species, migratory birds, National Refuge lands, and NWI Wetlands. One of the primary goals of the IPaC system is to provide this information in a manner that assists people in planning their activities within the context of natural resource Conservation. The IPaC system also assists people through the various regulatory consultation, permitting and approval processes administered by the Service, helping achieve more effective and efficient results for both the project proponents and natural resources. The IPaC System is continuously being further developed to help meet the needs of Service staff and others in conserving trust resources during the project planning process.
