Service Approves City of San Antonio and Bexar County Plan to Conserve Nine Federally Listed Species

Over the last several years the City of San Antonio and Bexar County, Texas, in cooperation with the Service worked together to develop a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) for nine listed species in one of the fastest growing areas of the country. The HCP maximizes the conservation benefits for the species while providing a streamlined ESA compliance process for businesses and residents to address the impacts of infrastructure and commercial and residential development in Bexar County and the City of San Antonio. The HCP and associated incidental take permit are authorized for 30 years.
