Population Objectives
As part of its responsibility in implementing the goals stated by NAWMP, joint ventures are developing habitat goals that are biologically linked to the breeding population goals. Ultimately, these goals are to be expressed as an amount of habitat that needs to be protected, enhanced or restored in the ACJV area in order to contribute to achieving NAWMP waterfowl population objectives at the regional and continental scales. At this time there is no consensus on how migratory or wintering waterfowl populations and habitat relate to the breeding objectives of NAWMP.
