Yolo Habitat Conservancy

The Yolo Habitat Conservancy has prepared the Yolo Habitat Conservation Plan/Natural Community Conservation Plan (Yolo HCP/NCCP), a model conservation plan to provide Endangered Species Act permits and associated mitigation for infrastructure (e.g. roads, bridges, and levees) and development activities (e.g. agricultural facilities, housing, and commercial buildings), identified for construction over the next 50 years in Yolo County. As part of the conservation strategy of the Yolo HCP/NCCP, the Yolo Habitat Conservancy is responsible for acquiring over 20,000 acres of conservation lands and implementing up to 956 acres of habitat restoration.
