Wildlife group
protects habitat
At its June 2 meeting, the
Wildlife Conservation Board
(WCB) earmarked $39.4 mil-
lion to help restore and pro-
tect fish and wildlife habitat
throughout California.
The funded projects in-
clude the Sierra Crest Con-
servation Easement, Phase
III in Sierra County. The
WCB approved a $2.4 million
grant to the Truckee Donner
Land Trust for a cooperative
project with the Sierra Neva-
da Conservancy and the
Northern Sierra Partnership
to acquire a conservation
easement over 2,683 acres of
land to preserve and restore
productive managed forest
lands and wildlife migration
corridors and provide access
for outdoor recreational op-
portunities. The site is ap-
proximately 16 miles north-
west of Truckee, near Web-
ber Lake.
The Quincy-based Feather
River Land Trust is a part-
ner in the Northern Sierra
Partnership.
The 23 funded projects will
provide benefits to fish and
wildlife species, including
some endangered species,
and increase public access to
these lands.
