Coyote Creek Mitigation Bank

The proposed Coyote Creek Mitigation Bank is located adjacent to Interstate 5, approximately 1.9 miles south of Red Bluff, Tehama County, California (Figure 1). As anticipated, the Coyote Creek Mitigation Bank will offer credits for a variety of wetland habitats (e.g., perennial and intermittent drainage, vernal pool and swale, open water, emergent marsh, etc.) and uplands habitats (e.g., annual grassland, oak woodlands, elderberry savanna, riparian woodland, etc.).

Although Services Areas for Coyote Creek Mitigation Bank are speculative at this time, for most habitats and species that will occur on-site, the Bank is expected to serve the northern Central Valley from the Town of Colusa northwards.
