Who prepared the Draft HCP/SYP and do government biologists think it is adequate?
The draft HCP/SYP was prepared by Pacific Lumber Company, however, the conservation and management guidelines for endangered species (and other covered species) were developed during long and difficult negotiations with government biologists. The present draft HCP/SYP, that is now available for public review and comment, contains conservation and management guidelines that meet the conservation needs of the fish and wildlife species, and comply with Federal and State law. It is important to note however, that this is only a draft document, and no final decisions regarding adequacy have been made by the government agencies. Such final determinations will be made after the public review and comment period.
