NOTE: This map shows general locationsof State and Federal Listed Species and Significant Natural Communities. Informationon listed species is collected and compiledby the Natural Diversity Data Base (NDDB) from a number of data sources . Exact locations of species have been buffered to produce the general locations. Exact locations of species and communities occur somewhere in the shaded areas, not necessarily in the center. A new mapping format is being employedthat more accurately models important riparian and aquatic areas and eliminates the need for the upstream/downstream searches required in previous versions.This map is intended for use as a preliminary screening tool for conducting aNatural Diversity Data Base Review Request.To use the map, locate the project boundariesand any additional affected areas. If theproject is within a shaded area there may be a potential conflict with a listed species. For more information, complete a Request for Natural Diversity Data Base State Listed Species Review form (DEP-APP-007), and submit it to the NDDB along with the required maps and information. More detailed instructions are provided with the request form on our website.www.ct.gov/deep/nddbrequestThis file has PDF Layers. Look for the Layerstab on the left.
