California Resources Agency proposes to remove any consideration of
species of special concern, such as California Native Plant Society List
1B and List 2 plants, and any animals not actually listed by the Federal
or State ESA's from the list of species to be considered in the
preparation of Environmental Impact Reports. Such species have been
considered since the act appeared, and their elimination from
consideration violates the intent of CEQA. CEQA is meant to evaluate
impacts, and those would include driving already rare species to the
point where they would have to be listed. I urge all of you who care
about our state's natural heritage to write to Maureen Gorsen /
Assistant General Counsel/ The Resources Agency / 1416 Ninth St./
Sacramento CA 95814 to strongly protest this action. Letters must be
received by May 28th, and the hearing will be in the First Floor
Auditorium, 1416 Ninth, Sacramento at 10.00 on May 30th.
