Abstract: Environmental Conservation Areas (ECAs) encompass the largest remaining relatively natural or restorable forests, shrublands, grasslands, and agricultural landscapes in Boulder County. ECAs are a framework for ecosystem management that identifies and designates valuable ecological areas and delineates corridors of connectivity between them regardless of ownership. ECAs are defined and described in the Environmental Resources Element of the Boulder County Comprehensive Plan.

Purpose: Environmental Conservation Areas (ECAs) are a planning tool developed by the County and its agency partners for analyzing land use and land management decisions in the context of the cumulative effects of development, roads, trails and increased human presence at a landscape‐scale on these large and complex ecosystems. This land use decision‐making tool is used as a strategy for maintaining the wide‐ranging animal species, native plant communities, and natural ecological processes that operate at this landscape scale.
