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
Baer's Pochard Aythya baeri	CR	winter	2002	present	A1
Greater Adjutant Leptoptilos dubius	NT	breeding	2004	present	A1
Lesser Adjutant Leptoptilos javanicus	NT	resident	2002	present	A1
White-rumped Vulture Gyps bengalensis	CR	non-breeding	2002	present	A1
Slender-billed Vulture Gyps tenuirostris	CR	non-breeding	2004	present	A1
Pallas's Fish-eagle Haliaeetus leucoryphus	EN	resident	2004	present	A1
A4iii Species group - waterbirds	n/a	unknown	2002	min 20,000 individuals	A4iii

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
Invasive and other problematic species and genes	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Biological resource use	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Agricultural expansion and intensification	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas	Management plan	Other action	Result
Not assessed	Not assessed	Not assessed	not assessed
