Protected Areas and Conservation Easements (Update 2018)

- Description:
- California Protected Areas Database and California Conservation Easements Database, Santa Barbara County.The CCED layer was updated to include all easements within the county including the new Dangermond Preserve.The California Protected Areas Database contains data about lands that are owned outright (“in fee”) and protected for open space purposes by 1,000 public agencies or non-profit organizations. CPAD lands range from the smallest urban pocket parks all the way to the largest wilderness areas – all told, CPAD inventories just over 49.2 million acres in 14,500 “parks” (known in CPAD as Super Units).CCED contains data about lands that are under conservation or open space easement (as opposed to those in CPAD that are owned outright “in fee”). Easements lands are typically private property and are only rarely open to the public. CCED easement lands range from the very small parcels in cities to large rural or wild landscapes. Uses on these parcels may include farming, ranching, timber harvesting or open space (including use as floodways, scenic viewsheds or for the protection of biodiversity). Easement protected lands are sometimes parts of larger protected landscapes and sometimes they exist on their own. It is important to note that one privately owned property may have two or more easements held by agencies or nonprofits (“stacked” easements) – this can affect statistical counts of easement acres.These datasets were clipped to a buffered boundary of Santa Barbara County, California.Layer ID 219
