<idAbs>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The updated VT's Biophysical Region Map (Ferree 2008), with 9 regions, replaces the older 8 region version from the VT Biodiversity Project (1998). The new biophysical region is the Champlain Hills, a section split off from the northeastern part of the former (now smaller) Champlain Valley region. The biophysical regions are a key aspect of the Vermont Conservation Design that is displayed in BioFinder. The updated and improved map should be used for all land use and planning purposes.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</idAbs>
