The permit application and accompanying Metropolitan Bakersfield Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) cover a 408- square mile area of Metropolitan Bakersfield.

The Service announces the availability of an Environmental Assessment (EA), HCP, application for incidental take, and Implementing Agreement (IA). This notice is provided pursuant to section 10(a) of the Act and National Environmental Policy Act regulations (40 CFR 1506.6).
