Solano Habitat Conservation Plan | Solano County, CA

The Solano Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) is a multispecies regional conservation plan that encompasses approximately 585,000 acres and addresses the conservation of 36 covered species, 36 additional special management species, and five broad natural communities/geographic regions in Solano and Yolo Counties. Some of the species addressed in the HCP include vernal pool crustaceans, California tiger salamander, Swainson’s hawk, burrowing owl, steelhead, and a variety of regionally endemic plant species. Activities proposed for coverage include future development and operations and maintenance activities of the plan participants. In total, there are 14 plan participants: six cities, five water supply/irrigation districts, and three special districts. LSA’s role in the development of the HCP has encompassed multiple tasks ranging from working with stakeholders to defining the purpose and guiding principles of the plan, developing the conservation strategy, addressing information and data gaps by conducting targeted studies of key resources, and working with plan participants to develop a database for plan implementation.
