The action area is the specific spatial polygon encompassing all of the areas where land, water, or air will be detectably changed due to the proposed project and any other activities that would not occur but for the proposed action. This typically does not include the broader area where affected wildlife might travel or move to after being exposed to those modifications within the action area. The action area should not be confused with other geographic descriptions, such as: analysis area, project area, recovery unit, management unit, etc. These may be helpful in analyzing population effects, but are not an equivalent substitute for the regulatory description of an action area.
Depending on the nature of the project, the action area may extend beyond the limits of the actual project location. IPaC will prompt you through the process to help you determine an appropriate action area. Once determined, effects to species should be considered throughout the action area.

This tool guides you through evaluating and documenting your project''s potential effects on species protected by the Endangered Species Act.
For all species and designated or proposed critical habitat that are identified by IPaC, the Federal Action Agency must determine whether a project "may affect" the species and critical habitat. If you determine that there will be "no effect" to all species and critical habitat within the project action area, then a summary of the analysis can be saved for your records and you are finished.
If you identify that this project "may affect" any species or critical habitat presented by IPaC, then consultation is required with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and this tool will generate a biological analysis suitable for use as a biological assessment or other environmental review document that you may submit to initiate consultation.
A consultation package contains documents that support your analysis of the project as it pertains to Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, including the official species list, any determination key analyses, and a biological analysis/assessment or other environmental review document.
For some project types and species, IPaC helps complete this analysis using data from the Service''s internal effect pathway (EP) analyses. Where available, IPaC presents effect pathway data as suggestions during your analysis process.

The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.

Your IPaC Migratory Bird list showcases birds of concern, including Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC), in your project location. This is not a comprehensive list of all birds found in your project area. However, you can help proactively minimize significant impacts to all birds at your project location by implementing the measures in the Nationwide avoidance and minimization measures for birds document, and any other project-specific avoidance and minimization measures suggested at the link Measures for avoiding and minimizing impacts to birds for the birds of concern on your list below.
Ensure Your Migratory Bird List is Accurate and Complete
If your project area is in a poorly surveyed area, your list may not be complete and you may need to rely on other resources to determine what species may be present (e.g. your local FWS field office, state surveys, your own surveys). Please review the Supplemental Information on Migratory Birds and Eagles document, to help you properly interpret the report for your specified location, including determining if there is sufficient data to ensure your list is accurate.

Measures for Proactively Minimizing Eagle ImpactsFor information on how to best avoid and minimize disturbance to nesting bald eagles, please review the National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines. You may employ the timing and activity-specific distance recommendations in this document when designing your project/activity to avoid and minimize eagle impacts. For bald eagle information specific to Alaska, please refer to Bald Eagle Nesting and Sensitivity to Human Activity.
The FWS does not currently have guidelines for avoiding and minimizing disturbance to nesting Golden Eagles. For site-specific recommendations regarding nesting Golden Eagles, please consult with the appropriate Regional Migratory Bird Office or Ecological Services Field Office.
If disturbance or take of eagles cannot be avoided, an incidental take permit may be available to authorize any take that results from, but is not the purpose of, an otherwise lawful activity. For assistance making this determination for Bald Eagles, visit the Do I Need A Permit Tool. For assistance making this determination for golden eagles, please consult with the appropriate Regional Migratory Bird Office or Ecological Services Field Office.
Ensure Your Eagle List is Accurate and CompleteIf your project area is in a poorly surveyed area in IPaC, your list may not be complete and you may need to rely on other resources to determine what species may be present (e.g. your local FWS field office, state surveys, your own surveys).

This analysis is not limited to the location of the project nor is it limited by the Federal agency''s authority. Rather, it is a determination of the reach of the proposed action on the environment (land, water, and air). The action area is typically larger than the area directly affected by the action, because of the indirect effects of the action and effects from activities caused by the action.
The action area is comprised of the total area within which all activities, structures, and their corresponding stressors occur on the landscape. If you draw any polygons for activities, structures, or stressors outside of your original project location polygon, they will be automatically included as part of your action area. You will be required to confirm your action area prior to beginning your analysis.
If your project stressors extend beyond your original project footprint, or your action area has expanded, additional species and critical habitat may be added to your project for analysis. Any completed documentation for this project will be invalidated.
Subsequent analyses of the environmental baseline, effects of the action, and levels of incidental take are based upon the action area.
