The LT category addresses the protection of habitat in the Sensitive Land Protection credit. Sensitive land protection supports the location of the development footprint on previously developed land or rehabilitating damaged sites, and does not support development of projects on the following sensitive land types, except as noted:
Prime farmland,threatened or endangered species and their habitats.
Protect water bodies: provide 100 foot buffer zone; minor improvements permitted.

Projects cannot be located on farmland, threatened or endangered species, or in floodplains.
