| 描述: |
The Virginia Outdoors Foundation (VOF), in collaboration with the Department of Conservation and Recreation’s Division of Natural Heritage, will acquire five acres as an addition to Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve (BRMNAP) in Fauquier County. Situated below the western-most ridge of the Bull Run Mountains and the rare pine-oak/heath woodlands that make up the Highpoint Conservation Area, this tract enhances VOF and DCR’s protection of a key visual and ecological site that typifies the Bull Run Mountains ecological corridor. Along with protecting critical habitat just below BRMNAP’s most fragile summit ecosystem, protection of this parcel will prevent incompatible development on a fragile ecosystem under heavy development threat. In addition, the property supports a section of Central Appalachian/Inner Piedmont Chestnut Oak Forest mapped as an Element Occurrence and several cultural history features. VOF was awarded a VLCF grant of $411,000 for this acquisition.
