Would have required a lead agency to incorporate appropriate wildlife passage features into a transportation infrastructure project in a connectivity area, as specified, but would exempt a project on the state highway system from this requirement if California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is the lead agency. The bill would have authorized a lead agency to use compensatory mitigation credits to satisfy this requirement, as specified. Held on suspense in the Senate Appropriations Committee.
