Current conservation efforts are conducted in accordance with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) 2019 Biological Opinion, Formal Section 7 Consultation for Routine Maintenance Operations, DFSP, San Pedro, Los Angeles County, California (FWS-LA-08B0606-08F0704). The principal components of this cooperative agreement are plant rearing of PVB host plants at DFSP for the PVB rearing program, rearing and seed collection of other native plants, weed control, habitat restoration, and vegetative monitoring along established transects.
