This report has been prepared as a reference for a variety of audiences, but the primary target is someone who is considering establishing a conservation bank. The text is addressed to that person — when we say “you”, we mean the person seriously interested in setting up a conservation bank. However, we hope that the report also will be useful to, among others, the staffs of resource agencies, such as the California Department of Fish and Game or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; local governments asked to cooperate in setting up a conservation bank; organizations or individuals interested in encouraging conservation efforts; local land trusts or land managers who manage conserved land; and bankers or other investors asked to evaluate a proposed conservation bank.
