The SCV HCP/NCCP is studying approximately 62% of the land area of Santa Clara County, or approximately 520,000 acres. The study area lies primarily within southern Santa Clara County and includes all of the City of San Jose except for Bayland areas. Within the Study Area, the impacts of future uses of land and conservation opportunities will be evaluated and identified. The boundary of the study area is based on ecological and hydrologic factors along with jurisdictional boundaries.
