Step 2: Identify Solutions & Options

2.0 Overview

Step 2 is the centerpiece of the decision guide. The six second-level steps described here are where we provide the greatest detail for users to learn of types of mitigation for passing wildlife safely over, under and across transportation corridors, how to place that mitigation, how to determine configuration, maintenance needs, and how to begin a cost effectiveness analysis. We end this section with details on establishing a monitoring and evaluation plan. The user will exit this step with a full range of details on how to proceed with carrying out a successful mitigation project. It is expected users will revisit this portion of the guide several times during the planning and adaptive management stages of the project.
