Blue Ridge Berryessa National Conservation Area Campaign

Tuleyome is working on a proposal to designate the Blue Ridge Berryessa National Conservation Area (BRB NCA). The boundaries would approximate the Blue Ridge Berryessa Natural Area (BRBNA) region, but the exact size and area are yet to be determined.  However, our vision encompasses potentially as much as 800,000 acres – a largely undeveloped and diverse mosaic of public and private land.

Dear Friend of the Blue Ridge Berryessa 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 Blue Ridge Berryessa 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
