The site was identified as important in 2004 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.

Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species') at the site:

Species	Red List1	Season	Year(s)	Size	IBA criteria
Lesser Adjutant Leptoptilos javanicus	NT	resident	2004	present	A1
Indian Skimmer Rynchops albicollis	EN	breeding	2004	present	A1
White-rumped Vulture Gyps bengalensis	CR	non-breeding	2004	present	A1
Indian Vulture Gyps indicus	CR	non-breeding	2004	present	A1
Greater Spotted Eagle Clanga clanga	VU	winter	2004	present	A1
Eastern Imperial Eagle Aquila heliaca	VU	winter	2004	present	A1

1. The current IUCN Red List category. The category at the time of the IBA criteria assessment (2004) may differ.

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2004. The most recent assessment (2003) is shown below.

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	low
Biological resource use	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	low
Energy production and mining	past (and unlikely to return) and no longer limiting	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Invasive and other problematic species and genes	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Residential and commercial development	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Transportation and service corridors	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
