Delta National Heritage Area Management Plan Advisory Committee
December 7, 2023@3:00 pm-5:00 pm
The Delta Protection Commission is the entity responsible for preparing a management plan for the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta National Heritage Area, which was created by Congress in 2019 (PDF). To advance that goal, the Commission created a 15-member volunteer NHA Management Plan Advisory Committee – read its charter (PDF) – to develop the plan.
The NHA Committee is scheduled to meet every month until the management plan is approved by the Secretary of the Interior. The location of the December meeting and the agenda will be posted here at least 10 days in advance.
Materials: The following are chapters of the administrative review draft of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta National Heritage Area Management Plan – all are Word documents that will auto-download:
