What does recovery mean related to threatened or endangered species? When a person is injured or has surgery, they often consult with doctors or other experts to develop a plan that will return them to full health and keep them from getting injured again. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife (Service) uses the word 'recovery' in a similar way. A 'recovery plan' determines the 'threats' that are hurting the species, suggests actions that will reduce or eliminate these threats so species can fully recover, and recommends ways to ensure that the population remains stable.
The goal of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) is to conserve the ecosystems upon which listed species depend and to recover species to levels where protection under the ESA is no longer necessary. Section 4 of the ESA directs the Service to develop recovery plans for the conservation and survival of a listed species.
The 2011 Revised Recovery Plan (5.7 MB PDF) takes a new approach to reversing declines in Mojave desert tortoise populations through a coordinated effort of science-based implementation and evaluation of conservation actions. This revised recovery strategy is a reflection of years of hard work by multiple stakeholders and recognizes the need to modify recovery efforts of the desert tortoise to accommodate changing management needs. The ability to conserve the Mojave population of desert tortoise and lead to eventual recovery of this threatened species depends on science and innovation. Finding a strategy that works alongside renewable energy development, for example, requires a plan that can incorporate new information and ideas.
The revised Plan recognizes the need to adjust to the accelerating pace of environmental change and its impact on key resource management issues, such as corridors and connectivity. The Plan will be a living document that advances a natural resource management model where ongoing detection of changes and attribution of causes will provide the basic information on whether or not the desert tortoise or its ecosystem is changing beyond natural variability.
By continuous examination of vulnerability, exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity of the desert tortoise to environmental change, resource managers will be able to update the Plan as it is being implemented with conservation July 15, 2020cover. For example, to address the recent impact of renewable energy on recovery of the desert tortoise, the Service will be adding a chapter to the Plan that focuses on measures related to renewable energy projects. The chapter will make clear what recovery implementation will look like in light of renewable energy development and will provide specific recommendations to ensure recovery and continued habitat connectivity.
Under the Plan, Regional recovery implementation teams will bring together partners from land management, scientific, conservation, and land-use groups to work with the Service to implement, track and evaluate recovery actions. To help teams apply the best available science, the Service has developed a system that explicitly describes the current understanding of what threatens tortoise populations and how recovery actions are predicted to reduce those threats. The system tracks where those actions will have the greatest benefits and where conservation actions have occurred. Teams can compare the performance of on-the-ground actions with what was expected to inform future decisions, and change the course of action as necessary.

In September 2011, the Department of Energy issued a $1.2 billion loan guarantee to finance Mojave, a 250-MW parabolic trough concentrating solar power (CSP) plant on previously disturbed agricultural land near Barstow, California. It started commercial operations in December 2014.
Mojave uses innovative solar receiver and frame designs to further enhance already proven parabolic trough technology that has been employed for nearly 25 years at facilities throughout the Mojave desert.
Mojave Compatible With Office 2011
Mojave created 830 construction jobs and is expected to support 70 permanent jobs. Approximately 83% of total costs were expected to be sourced in the United States (including both capital equipment and labor).
Mojave is expected to generate 617,000 megawatt-hours of clean energy and prevent 329,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually.
