Document Description
NOTE: Review Per Lead
The 1997 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) among LADWP, Inyo County, the Owens Valley Committee (OVC), Carla Scheidlinger, the Sierra Club, the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), and the California State Lands Commission (SLC) outlines the requirement for an evaluation of Yellow-billed Cuckoo (YBC) habitat at Baker and Hogback Creeks. The Final Ad Hoc Yellow-billed Cuckoo Habitat Enhancement Plan was developed to maintain and/or improve conditions for YBC at Baker and Hogback Creeks. Under the proposed Project, habitat conditions would be maintained and/or improved at each site through the implementation of project actions such as planting of native riparian vegetation, alteration of grazing practices, amended recreation policies, and altered trails.
