East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservation Plan / Natural Community Conservation Plan (HCP/NCCP)

The East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservation Plan / Natural Community Conservation Plan (ECCC HCP/NCCP) is a multi-jurisdictional initiative designed to coordinate species and habitat conservation through a structured permitting and mitigation process. The East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservancy, acting as the lead agency, is seeking to amend the HCP/NCCP and its associated state and federal permits through applications submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. This project is a discretionary action subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report has been prepared to support these amendments. The project was officially approved by the East Contra Costa County Governing Board on December 15, 2025, with a Notice of Determination filed on December 17, 2025. Administrative oversight is managed by the East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservancy, with primary contact Abigail Fateman and additional coordination through John Kopchik. The performance area is located within Eastern Contra Costa County, and the project is identified by State Clearinghouse Number 2005092129. While the action is categorized under NAICS code 541620, the provided documentation focuses on environmental compliance and regulatory approval rather than specific procurement pricing or delivery schedules.
