Berryessa Snow Mountain National Conservation Area Campaign

Tuleyome is working on a proposal to designate the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Conservation Area (BSM NCA). The boundaries and the exact size and area are yet to be determined. However, our vision encompasses potentially as much as 500,000 acres – a largely undeveloped and diverse mosaic of public land. Click here for images of this area.

Dear Friend of the Berryessa Snow Mountain Region:

This proposal is really about the future. What is our vision for the future? What will our region look like in another 150 years? We hope that it will remain much as it is with important ecosystems protected, enhanced recreation consistent with that goal, and a thriving and sustainable working landscape. Tuleyome feels that a National Conservation Area designation is our best opportunity to realize this vision for the future.

The goals of the Berryessa Snow Mountain NCA are to:

• Protect the conservation resources of the region
• Enhance public recreation consistent with protecting the conservation resources
• Sustain the working landscape and its economic viability
• Help local economies

An NCA designation would result in:

• Congress stating that these lands are important
• Require development of a multi-agency comprehensive regional management plan,
• Establish a public advisory committee
• Focus conservation and management dollars for the region
