This is the Absolute Constrained Areas (ACAs) in the SCAG Region developed for Connect SoCal, the 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). ACAs include Tribal Nation Lands, Military Lands, Open Space and Conserved Lands, Sea Level Rise Areas (2 feet), Farmlands in Unincorporated Areas.<\/SPAN><\/P>

  • Tribal Nation Lands \u2013 SCAG utilized the Census Bureau\u2019s American Indian/Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian (AIANNH) Areas database for 2017 to identify tribal nations in the SCAG region;<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • Military Lands \u2013 Locations of military lands are derived from SCAG\u2019s 2016 Existing Land Use Database, which underwent review and refinement by local jurisdictions through the Bottom-Up Local Input and Envisioning Process;<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • Open Space and Conserved Lands \u2013 Data on conservation areas, open space, and parks from year 2017 comes from the Save Our Agricultural Resources (SOAR) protected areas in Ventura County, the California Conservation Easement Database, as well as the California Protected Areas Database (CPAD). Together, these data inventories represent protected open space lands, conserved areas, and conservation easements in the SCAG region and the greater State of California. Several elements were developed by aggregating and cross-checking various open space data from multiple public agencies by GreenInfo Network, and also benefit from feedback provided by local jurisdictions through SCAG\u2019s Bottom-Up Local Input and Envisioning Process; <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • Sea Level Rise Areas (2 feet) \u2013 Data on coastal inundation were obtained from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coastal Services Center\u2019s online mapping viewer depicting potential sea level rise and its associated impacts on the nation\u2019s coastal areas (accessed by SCAG in 2017). These data depict the potential inundation of coastal areas resulting from a projected 2 feet rise in sea level above current Mean Higher High Water (MHHW) conditions, and underwent review by SCAG\u2019s local jurisdictions; and <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • Farmlands in Unincorporated Areas \u2013 Farmland information was obtained from the Farmland Mapping & Monitoring Program (FMMP) in the Division of Land Resource Protection in the California Department of Conservation. Established in 1982, the FMMP is to provide consistent and impartial data and analysis of agricultural land use and land use changes throughout the State of California. For SCAG\u2019s purposes, data from year 2016 (and 2014 in areas where 2016 data was unavailable) underwent review and refinement by local jurisdictions through the Bottom-Up Local Input and Envisioning Process. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL>
