The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers South Pacific Division, including its Sacramento, San Francisco, and Los Angeles Districts, along with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the California Natural Resources Agency, the National Marine Fisheries Service, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the State Water Resources Control Board, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service, as potential participants in Interagency Review Teams (IRT), collectively known as IRT agencies, is postponing the virtual public meeting previously scheduled for October 27, 2025 due to the lapse in federal government appropriations. The purpose of this meeting was to provide mitigation banking updates and solicit input from stakeholders. The meeting will be rescheduled at a later date.
AUTHORITY: The IRT agencies entered into an interagency Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Mitigation and Conservation Banking and In-Lieu Fee Programs in California (MOU) in 2006, which established the Banking Agency Management Team (BAMT) and the California Interagency Mitigation Bank Project Delivery Team (PDT) to improve consistency in mitigation and conservation banking throughout the state of California. The MOU was updated and executed in 2011. Pursuant to the 2011 MOU, the BAMT, in coordination with the PDT, is responsible for hosting public meetings to provide updates on templates, guidance, processes, etc., or to address areas for improvement in mitigation and conservation banking.
MEETING DESCRIPTION: The BAMT and the PDT are postponing the October 27, 2025, public meeting due to the lapse in government appropriations. The meeting will be rescheduled once the federal government fully reopens.
