Die DRECP auf den Wüstenregionen von Kalifornien konzentriert enthalten die Mojave und Colorado Wüsten Biosphärenreservat.
Der Zweck der DRECP ist zur Erhaltung und Bewirtschaftung Flora und Fauna Gemeinden in den Wüstenregionen von Kalifornien und erleichtert die rechtzeitige Genehmigung von kompatiblen Projekte für erneuerbare Energien. The DRECP is a collaborative effort being developed under the California Natural Community Conservation Planning Act (NCCPA) and the Federal Endangered Species Act (FESA), and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA).
The Desert Renewable Energy Conservation-Plan (DRECP), a major component of California’s renewable energy planning efforts, will help provide effective protection and conservation of desert ecosystems while allowing for the appropriate development of renewable energy projects.
The DRECP will result in an efficient and effective biological mitigation and conservation program providing renewable project developers with permit timing and cost certainty under the federal and California Endangered Species Acts while at the same time preserving, restoring and enhancing natural communities and related ecosystems. Approximately 22.5 million acres of federal and non-federal California desert land are in the DRECP Plan Area.
