Abstract/Summary:

This manual is intended as a decision support guide to project teams tasked with planning and implementing pollinator vegetation on utility-scale solar projects. Vegetation involves planning, managing, and adapting living organisms subject to subtle changes in conditions, climate, and disturbance regimes. While comprehensive, it is not intended as a substitute for first-hand knowledge of individual project conditions or constraints. It is ultimately the responsibility of project managers and vegetation specialists to have the appropriate technical knowledge and understanding of their own sites and apply the information within this manual in the most appropriate manner.
