Two attached SOW proposals from NatureServe for JELA and NATR define the specific steps to the tasks summarized below. Duties will focus on: 1.

NATR Task 8 � Formal Accuracy Assessment (Subcontracts with Alabama and Tennessee Natural Heritage programs for crews) Hiring and training field contractors and qualified seasonal / interns for accuracy assessment field work 7. NATR Task 9 � Prepare Geodatabase, Final Report, and Required End Products. NatureServe contributes sections on classification and accuracy assessment as needed to the final report. 8. NATR Task 10 � Project Close-out Meeting. NatureServe attends and presents final vegetation classification and its relationship to mapping units. NATIONAL PARK SERVICE INVOLVEMENT Substantial involvement on the part the National Park Service is anticipated for the successful completion of the objectives to be funded by this award.
