Service Description:

This environmental sensitivity ranking data seeks to characterize potential sensitivity of Georgia's ecosystems and habitats to large scale solar development. This data is part of the Georgia Low Impact Solar Siting Tool (GA LISST) that considers both environmental sensitivity and solar suitability to identify areas of low impact potential. Research and outreach to the solar developer community as well as natural resource agencies was conducted to identify the most relevant physical land characteristics that would impact large-scale solar potential as well as quantify the relative environmental sensitivity of these areas. The environmental sensitivity methodology compared relative rankings of environmental sensitivity through a process that retained the highest sensitivity rankings across a wider range of parameters. A site's particular ranking was produced through review of ranked datasets for comprehensive conservation concerns (South Atlantic Blueprint and TNC's Resilient and Connected Lands data) as well as state-specific solar concerns relating to the gopher tortoise, eastern indigo snake, and freshwater stream connectivity.
