The
California Biodiversity Council (CBC) was formed in 1991 to
improve coordination and cooperation between the various resource
management and environmental protection organizations at federal,
state, and local levels. Strengthening ties between local communities
and governments has been a focus of the Council by way of promoting
strong local leadership and encouraging comprehensive solutions to
regional issues.
The Council was not created to independently establish new projects nor
to become another bureaucracy. Rather, its purpose is to discuss,
coordinate, and assist in developing strategies and complementary
policies for conserving biodiversity. Members exchange information,
resolve conflicts, and promote development of regional conservation
practices.
The Council has 40 members, including ten regional associations of
county supervisors and governments, 16 state agencies, 12 federal
agencies, the University of California, and the California Association
of Resource Conservation Districts.
For questions regarding the Council, its activities, or this site,
