The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) is offering technical assistance to cannabis cultivators with a new pilot program. The first of its kind Pop-up Shop is designed to review current or upcoming cultivation related projects and provides guidance on remediation projects or other construction activity with one-on-one assistance. CDFW’s Cannabis Permitting and Conservation Engineering staff will be on hand to answer questions. Cultivators from neighboring counties are welcomed and can schedule meetings too. Along with this, EPIMS support staff will be available to help with online notifications. Meetings will be by appointment only and times will be reserved on a first come first serve basis. Once someone is scheduled for a meeting, a confirmation email will be sent with instructions on what to bring to the meeting. Participants are encouraged to bring digital photos and other project paperwork. One-on-one meetings can be scheduled at [email protected] on first-come, first-served basis. Interested participants should include “Technical Pop Up" in the subject line and the preferred time in the message. No walk-ins will be allowed due to COVID-19 restrictions. Those with additional questions can email CDFW at [email protected], visit wildlife.ca.gov/cannabis to learn more about permitting, Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreements or attend any of the upcoming online permitting workshops.
