Subject: Sycamore Canyon Endowment Funds Request
Dear Mr. Gibson,
The Riverside County Habitat Conservation Agency (RC HCA) received your request for funding SKR Monitoring for the Sycamore Canyon Reserve. The requested funds are to come from the endowment established for the Sycamore Canyon Reserve under the Stephens' Kangaroo Rat (SKR) Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP). The funding request specifies that the funds will be used to purchase equipment to be used for trail repair and land management purposes, including invasive species removal, which will indirectly improve habitat for SKR and other native species within the reserve.
The RCHCA views this request as an appropriate use of endowment funds, and your request was approved by the RC HCA Board of Directors at the September 12, 2024 meeting. Attached you will find a copy of the funding request packet that codifies the responsibilities in accepting the endowment funds.
Please submit receipts for the equipment purchases for reimbursement, not to exceed $ 121,486.35 to:
[email protected].
Please do not hesitate to contact me at (951) 405-6708 if you have any questions or if you need any additional assistance.
Thank You.
Sincerely,
Riana Fisher
Program Manager
