Planning and Community Development Department, South Sacramento Habitat Conservation Plan

The purpose of the habitat accounts is to thoroughly describe the mapped cover-types, plant communities, and species’ habitats under consideration by the SSHCP Steering Committee and to document specific strategies that will be used to assess and conserve habitat within the SSHCP study area. The accounts will also address how general habitat-level conservation strategies contribute to species-specific biological needs for covered species known to occur in the habitat. As necessary, additional conservation strategies will be added to improve the conservation benefits for species that use the habitat.
