          *********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
             The following information is revised to reflect amendments 
                     adopted by the committee on August 11, 2016






          Bill  
          Summary:  AB 2087 authorizes the California Department of Fish  
          and Wildlife (CDFW) to approve Regional Conservation Frameworks  
          (RCF) to guide conservation of natural resources and  
          infrastructure planning. 


          Fiscal  
          Impact: 
           Approximately $675,000 in year one, and $987,000 annually  
            (special fund) to develop RCF guidelines and administer the  
            program, some or all of which may be recovered through fees.
           Unknown, potentially significant savings to state agencies  
            using the RCF framework for conservation efforts,
