17 SWAP 2015 Implementation & Integration Status

18 SWAP 2015 has been used as o Conservation Framework o Conservation Priorities & Standards o Framework and/or motivation for Study o Data o Reference

19 To address diverse conservation activities: o Funding o Land Protection o Regulation & Policy making o Conservation Planning o Operational Planning o Partner Engagement o Data Gathering & Analysis o Studies

20 SWAP Integration Example o Legislation AB 2087 and the Guideline o Regional Strategic Plans Integrated Conservation & Development Plan (SGC) Regional Climate Adaptation Strategy (LCC) Forest Carbon Plan (NRA & CalFire) Strategic Plan (WCB, Transition Habitat Conservancy) CA Water Plan (DWR) o National Databases o Climate adaptation strategy for at risk

21 SWAP Integration Example o Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation Program ($7M per yr) o Proposition 1 - Water Quality, Supply, and Infrastructure Improvement Act of 2014 Restoration Grant Program $372.5M (10yr) $31M (FY2015~16) Water Storage Investment Program $2.7B (1time, coming) o State Wildlife Grant (cont.)

22 SWAP 2015 Direct Implementation o SWAP Companion Plans (2016) - for Collaborative Implementation o SWAP 2015 Operational Plan (2016)

56 Advocate Roles for SWAP o ID key issues and potential opportunities o Connect dots o Find missing links o Advocate to fill the gaps

57 Advocate Roles for SWAP (cont.) o The scope includes invasive aquatic animals. o Invasive plants in research level only, but high interests. o Once markers for invasive plants are established, we should have ways to incorporate the sampling/s. assessment for those plants. o Potential to add
