Got it working and I can't believe how complicated I made this to be.
Need to get confirmation from C/D about sensitivity.
Add in Sensitivity filter for the Commissions.
Added in sensitivity although PGC and PFBC are both treated equally.
Next, I think we need some more explanatory text about sensitive habitats.
Fixed. Needs a language improvement.
As noted in #138 for subterranean species, specialized habitats for subterranean SGCN were left out of this draft of the tool. One of the main reasons behind this is that it was difficult to represent these habitats in the tool because of their overlap with the terrestrial habitat map. Cave systems can be extensive systems that extend for several hundred meters from a relatively small surface entrance. Similarly, seasonal pools that typically occur within a forested matrix, are difficult to represent as they are small and can occur in a number of associations. There's also a site sensitivity issue for both of these habitats, as they are associated with sensitive SGCN.
We've struggled with this a bit, but a relatively simple solution was present right in front of us (this is getting very typical). Here is the proposed solution:
