Summary
The bill bans importing, exporting, buying, selling, or taking western Joshua trees in California unless a permit is issued. Permit holders must either mitigate the impact or pay fees, which the Department of Fish and Wildlife must adjust regularly and can tailor to specific projects. The law also requires biennial reviews of the species’ status and the conservation plan.
