Purpose: This page provides guidance on how to report Nonstructural Land Management Practices (NLMPs) where a contract is implemented over multiple years, and where the practice location may change each year.
NLMP Reporting Decision Tree:
1. Is the contract length more than 1 year?
If no, enter 1 Activity Detail.
- Count of Activities = 1
- Map location(s)
- Lifespan = 1 year
- Size = enter applicable amount
- Installed Date = date practice installed
- Enter indicators for practice
If yes, go to question 2.
2. Is the practice located in the same location(s) each year?
If yes, enter 1 Activity Detail.
- Count of Activities = 1
- Map location(s) once
- Lifespan = contract length (# of years practice implemented
- Size = annual amount (NOT total for all years)
- Installed Date = date first year of practice is installed
- Indicators should be entered as an annual amount (Ex. tons/year)
If no, enter a separate Activity Detail for each year. Example: 3 activity details for 3-year contract.
- Count of Activities = 1
- Map location(s) as appropriate for each year
- Lifespan = 1 year
- Size = amount implemented each year
- Installed Date = date practice is installed each year
- Indicators should be entered for each year
