'''Southeast Conservation Blueprint''' is a Department of the Interior initiative led by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service within the Southeast Conservation Adaptation Strategy (SECAS), uniting over 2,000 partners across 15 Southeastern states, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands to prioritize conservation on over 400 million acres, reconnecting more than 64,000 miles of habitat and supporting over 1,093 migratory bird species and other wildlife as of 2025. | |||
Launched in 2016 as a first-generation spatial plan, it has facilitated over 350 completed uses and 90+ ongoing projects, securing $330 million+ in funding by 2025, with its 2024 update refining indicators like grasslands and savannas, integrating tools like the Southeast Blueprint Explorer, and supporting post-Hurricane Helene recovery efforts across the region. | |||
