Sierra Pacific Habitat Conservation Plan

The multi-species HCP covers 49,000 acres of timber lands in southwestern Washington State.
Summary
This HCP was signed in June 1995 with a 100-year term. The multi-species HCP covers 49,000 acres of timber lands in southwestern Washington State. Watershed prescriptions to protect unstable slopes and correct roads that deliver sediments to streams are being implemented according to outcomes of specific analyses.
NOAA Fisheries did not issue an Incidental Take Permit or a biological opinion because ESA-listed fish were not present in the covered area when the HCP was signed. West Fork was Murray Pacific Corporation when the HCP became effective.
The HCP and associated documents are very large files. Please e-mail wcr.webcontent@noaa.gov to request a CD of these documents, and include your name and full mailing address.
