Local Data for Better Conservation Act amends Endangered Species Act to integrate state-collected data in species listing decisions.
The Local Data for Better Conservation Act amends the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to require the Secretary to accept and integrate state-collected data when making determinations to list or delist species as threatened or endangered. This change aims to incorporate local data into federal conservation decisions, potentially improving the accuracy and effectiveness of species protection efforts.
