Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan

Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan

United Water Conservation District will prepare an EIR to evaluate the environmental effects of its proposed Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) and facility and operations modifications associated with implementation of the MSHCP. The primary elements of the proposed project that could result in changes in the physical environment are the construction, operation, and maintenance of a new fish passage facility at the Freeman Diversion; modified water diversion operations and potential development of supporting infrastructure; replacement of the fish screen at the Freeman Diversion, and habitat restoration and enhancement in the Santa Clara River watershed.
