In cooperation and on behalf of the state, BCAG has led and implemented or partnered on several environmental mitigation projects necessitated by the development and construction of capital projects having impacts to the natural environment in which the projects reside. Recent Environmental Mitigation projects are:

• State Route 191 Grassland and Blue Oak Mitigation 

BCAG was requested by Caltrans District 3 to implement the required mitigation for the State Route 191 SHOPP project south of the Town of Paradise in Butte County. Staff executed a Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans during the 2019-2020 Fiscal Year defining the terms and funding requirements to accomplish the mitigation. The mitigation project involved locating and protecting in perpetuity a sufficient acreage of blue oak woodland via voluntary conservation agreement with willing landowner.
