Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA). The DBCA Legislated Lands and Waters data set shows all lands and waters defined under acts which are applicable to DBCA. These include the CALM Act 1984, Swan and Canning Rivers Management Act 2006 and lands identified under the Land Administration Act 1997 such as Crown reserve vested in Botanical Gardens and Parks, Crown reserve vested in the Zoological Gardens Board and Crown reserve vested in the Rottnest Island Authority. Tenure categories include but not limited to, national park, nature reserve, conservation park, marine park, marine nature reserve, marine management area, section 5(1)(g) reserves, State forest and timber reserves. This dataset is a March 2024 extract from the SCDB with approved enhancements and updates from the GIS Branch where required. Note that this layer, together with the DBCA - Lands of Interest data set, replace the DPaW Managed Lands and Waters data set. Both data sets are required to get the same scope/information as the old data set. Tenure is a dynamic dataset - for enquiries regard current tenure status please contact the DBCA - Land Services Co-ordinator/Policy and Planning/Land Unit - 9219 8777. This dataset was formally known as DPAW Managed Lands and Waters (DPAW-026)

This dataset represents CDFWs ongoing effort to identify priority wildlife movement barriers across the state. Currently, increasing attention is being directed toward wildlife habitat connectivity as a mechanism of maintaining biodiversity in the face of population growth and climate change. Listing priority wildlife barrier locations will help focus limited financial resources where the highest need has been identified to improve wildlife movement. This is complementary to CDFW''s fish passage barrier priorities that have been identified for anadromous fish. Like the fish passage priorities, the wildlife barrier priorities list will be periodically updated to reflect new information and barrier removal successes.CDFW divides the state into six administrative Regions. CDFW staff in each Region identified linear segments of infrastructure that currently present barriers to wildlife populations in their jurisdiction. In doing so, the Regions used all available empirical information in their possession, including existing connectivity and road crossing studies, collared-animal movement data, roadkill observations, and professional expertise. This dataset represents all barriers identified statewide as of May 2022 and former barriers that have been remediated since 2020. Most of the barriers identified are highway segments, but other infrastructure types such as fencing, canals, local roads, and high speed rail alignments are also represented.Additional information can be found in this report: https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentID=204648.
