NATURAL RESOURCES

Marine Corps Installation West-Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton (MCIWEST-MCB CAMPEN) is a premier amphibious training Base which is home to 19 federally listed species.  Integral to the success of the military mission aboard MCB CAMPEN is maintaining and protecting natural resources.  The Base has successfully implemented the Base’s Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan (INRMP) by close coordination and collaboration with Base operators, federal and California state agencies, and the regional scientific community.  MCB CAMPEN’s Resource Management Branch oversees management of 12 federally protected species of mammal, bird, amphibian and fish on Base, as well as many other sensitive species of various taxa.  These species are distributed widely over approximately 125,000 acres of largely undeveloped training land in Southern California, including 17 miles of shoreline, three major watersheds and coastal foothills with elevations up to 3,000 feet above sea level.

MCIWEST-MCB CAMPEN developed the 2024 INRMP Revision in coordination with the US Fish and Wildlife Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Services, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the California Department of Parks and Recreation, Orange County District.
