Oak Woodland Protection Plans
State of California
The State of California has given directives to enact oak woodland protection plans, and identifies potential funding sources. California Assembly Bill No. 242 enacted the Oak Woodlands Conservation Act to fund the protection and conservation of the state’s oak woodlands [1]. Local government entities, park and open-space districts, resource conservation districts, private landowners, and nonprofit organizations can obtain funding from the Oak Woodlands Conservation Fund established by the bill. In addition, California Assembly Bill No. 2785 directed the Department of Fish and Game to identify and prioritize areas in the state serving as essential habitat connectors or wildlife corridors[2]. The Department is required to produce vegetative data and analytical products for public and governmental use. The bill states that funding and cost-sharing opportunities with agencies or organizations that use the data will be pursued.
