Mount Logan is a mountain on the Gaspé Peninsula, in Quebec, Canada. Part of the Chic-Choc Mountains, Mount Logan rises above sea level, making it the highest point in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region and one of the few Quebec peaks over . The mountain's unusually steep northern flank is visible from Cap-Chat, on the estuary of Saint Lawrence. The altitude and the summit's exposure to winds from the Gulf of St. Lawrence make it one of Quebec's most precipitated summits. The combination of the mountain's physiography and unusual climate make it the habitat of several rare animal and plant species, such as caribou and griscom arnica. Mount Logan's topography, ancient geological composition, and remarkable flora and fauna aroused the scientific community's interest in the mid-19th century. Despite conditions favorable for skiing, Mount Logan's remoteness has worked against efforts to develop recreational and tourist enterprises. Straddling the boundaries of Gaspésie National ...

List Of Areas Of Critical Environmental Concern In Colorado
Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) is a conservation ecology program in the Western United States, managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The ACEC program was conceived in the 1976 Federal Lands Policy and Management Act ( FLPMA), which established the first conservation ecology mandate for the BLM. The FLPMA mandate directs the BLM to protect important riparian corridors, threatened and endangered species habitats, cultural and archeological resources, as well as unique scenic landscapes that the agency assesses as in need of special management attention. Criteria To be considered a potential ACEC an area must meet criteria of both relevance and importance. Relevance An area meets the relevance criteria of an ACEC if it contains one or more of the following: *A significant historic, cultural, or scenic value; *A fish or wildlife resource; *A natural process or system (including but not limited to areas supporting rare, endemic, relict, or endangered plant ...

Seal Of Ohio
The Great Seal of the State of Ohio is the official insignia of the U.S. state of Ohio. All governmental offices, agencies, and courts in Ohio use variations of the state seal. Its primary feature is a circular coat of arms that depicts a sunrise in Chillicothe, Ohio's first capital, along with symbols of the state's origins. The seal sometimes appears with the state motto, "With God, all things are possible". Shortly after its establishment in 1803, the state adopted a seal based on a sketch by Secretary of State William Creighton, Jr. Except for a brief period during the 1860s, the layout and details were left largely unregulated until a standardized coat of arms, based on the original design, was introduced in 1967. The coat of arms was modified most recently in 1996. Each of Ohio's 88 counties maintains its own official seal based on the state seal. Design The design of the Great Seal of the State of Ohio is defined in Ohio Revised Code section 5.10: The coat of arms ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
