Document Description
Two elements of the proposed project are included within this NOP: (1) a Kern County GPA in order to change existing Land Use Codes 8.1 (Intensive Agriculture), 8.3 (Extensive Agriculture), and 8.4 (Mineral and Petroleum) to Land Use Code 8.5 (Resource Management) in the Lokern area; and (2) a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) that covers lands owned by Chevron in the valley floor portion of Kern County, known as the Lokern area, and portions of five Kern County oilfields. The Chevron Lokern HCP provides for the long-term conservation of endangered and threatened species by preserving specified habitat land. The purpose of the Chevron Lokern HCP is to obtain permits authorizing the "take" of endangered and threatened species incidental to otherwise lawful activities, for a permit term of 50 years.
