(2) "Conservation" means the use of methods and procedures necessary to bring a species to the point at which the measures provided under the Threatened or Endangered Wildlife Species Act (ORS 496.172, 496.176, 496.182) are no longer necessary.

(3) "Suitable Habitat" means flat, open areas on sandy coastal beaches, sand spits at coastal river outlets, dune-backed coastal beaches, coastal dredged-material disposal sites, and flats east of coastal foredunes that become exposed as deflation plain dry ponds.
