Improving Habitat Conservation Planning: The California Natural Community Conservation Model

Environmental Community	Regulated Community
Little funding for plans and "no surprises"	Lack of certainty
"Jeopardy" too weak a standard	Unreasonable costs
Few public participation opportunities	Imbalanced allocation of costs
Ineffective management provisions	Agreements not reliable
Poor oversight of plan implementation	Science lacks rigor
Small ownerships lead to fragmentation	Planning process not predictable
Species focus too narrow	Implementing not streamlined
Lack of credible scientific input	Not enough public funding
