How much land has been acquired or set aside to date?
Fortunately, about 77% or 387,000 acres was already public or quasi-public land when RCA was formed in 2004. This land forms the core of the habitat conservation plan. RCA’s work focuses on the remaining 153,000 acres needed to fulfill the plan’s requirements and is expected to take at least 25 years. To date, more than 21% of the remaining goal of 153,000 acres has been acquired, about 32,000 acres.
