Subject:	This is an organizational meeting of the Steering Committee that will oversee the development of a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) for Florida’s sandy beaches. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) has undertaken a project to obtain an Incidental Take Permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to cover take of federally listed species that may occur as a result of activities permitted by FDEP’s Coastal Construction Control Line permitting program. In order to obtain this permit, an HCP that quantifies impacts to listed species and proposes minimization and mitigation measures must be developed. FDEP has determined that a Steering Committee will aid in the development of a comprehensive HCP. This initial Steering Committee meeting is intended to provide background information and introduce issues that will be faced in the development of the HCP.
