The Bureau of Land Management California Plant Conservation Program aims to lead the identification, maintenance, and restoration of Western native plant communities on public lands. These lands host a variety of wildlife species that rely on native plant habitats found in over 50 ecoregions under BLM jurisdiction. The program collaborates with agencies and partners to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of plant conservation efforts. Future plans include prioritizing the restoration of wildlife habitats with a focus on a wider range of native forbs and grasses, particularly after wildfires. Application deadline: April 30, 2020.

| Description: | The Plant Conservation Program provides leadership in identifying, maintaining, and restoring Western native plant communities on public lands.
Public lands contain a diversity of wildlife that need habitat of native plant communities comprised of over 50 ecoregions across BLM administered lands. Each ecoregion contains native plants that have adapted to those environments. The Program will continue to work with agencies and partners to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the plant program. Into the future, the BLM would continue to work with partners to focus on more diverse forbs and grasses for restoration of wildlife habitats and rehabilitation after wildfires. |
