Participation in the SEP-HCP means voluntarily enrolling a property in the Plan for the purpose of complying with the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Those that complete the enrollment process become “Participants”. Any non-federal entity conducting a Covered Activity may seek to participate in the SEP-HCP by submitting an application to the Development Services Department.
Applications should provide information on the specific property identified by the applicant. Once an application is received the City will review all submitted information and notify the applicant of any deficiencies and request a revision or additional information. We will not process any application for participation without all of the required information. A list of requirements may be found in the SEP-HCP checklist. More information may be obtained by emailing DSD SEP-HCP team.
For an overview of the participant application process, please reference the Coordinating Committee Work Session presentation (PDF) and flow chart (PDF).
