BLM CA DRECP California Desert National Conservation Lands Polygons

Metadata Updated: November 25, 2025

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has prepared this Record of Decision (ROD) approving the Land Use Plan Amendment (LUPA) for the California Desert Conservation Area (CDCA) Plan and Bishop and Bakersfield Resource Management Plans (RMPs). The BLM also explains in this ROD the identification of the California Desert National Conservation Lands as discussed in the attached LUPA. The LUPA was prepared as part of the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP). The DRECP has been developed as an interagency plan by the BLM, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the California Energy Commission (CEC), and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) (collectively “REAT Agencies”; Renewable Energy Action Team [REAT]) to (1) advance federal and state natural resource conservation goals and other federal land management goals; (2) meet the requirements of the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), California Endangered Species Act (CESA), Natural Community Conservation Planning Act (NCCPA), and Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA); and (3) facilitate the timely and streamlined permitting of renewable energy projects, all in the Mojave and Colorado/Sonoran desert regions of Southern California.
