Department of the Interior (DOI): Peninsular Florida Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC)

The Peninsular Florida Landscape Conservation Cooperative (PFLCC) is one of 21 LCCs established by Secretarial Order No. 3289, which focus on on-the-ground strategic conservation efforts at the landscape level. LCCs are management-science partnerships that inform integrated resource-management actions addressing climate change and other stressors within and across landscapes.

In Peninsular Florida, this LCC will enhance and expand existing partnerships among state, federal, and local agencies, the Miccosukee and Seminole Tribes of Florida, nongovernmental organizations, universities, and other stakeholders. The PFLCC will complement Florida’s Wildlife Action Plan and other landscape level conservation strategies to restore, manage, and conserve the biodiversity of the region in the face of both climate change and intense development pressure associated with a rapidly growing human population.
