Please exercise judgment before opening .. attachments, clicking on links, or replying. Greetings, On December 10, 2021, the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) released a Revised Draft of the Central Valley Flood Protection Plan (CVFPP) Conservation Strategy for public review and comment. This deadline for providing comments on the Draft Conservation Strategy is this Thursday, February, 10, 2022. The draft document is available on DWR’s website at: https://water.ca.gov/Programs/Flood- Management/Flood-Planning-and-Studies/Conservation-Strategy. Please use the public comment form (available on the website) to capture your comments, and submit the form to CScomments@water.ca.gov. About the Conservation Strategy The Conservation Strategy is an integral component of the 2022 CVFPP Update. Its purpose is to provide actionable and measurable targets to improve riverine, aquatic, wetland, and riparian habitat in the flood system through the integration of ecological principles with flood risk reduction projects, operation and maintenance activities, institutional support, and other means (e.g., the removal of fish passage barriers). The Conservation Strategy also provides data, information, and guidance to floodplain managers to assist in the development of multi-benefit flood infrastructure improvement projects by integrating project components and management strategies that benefit native species and their habitats.
