I. Abstract
Conservation banks are permanently
protected lands that contain natural
resource values, which are conserved
and permanently managed for species
that are endangered, threatened,
candidates for listing as endangered or
threatened, or are otherwise species-atrisk. The habitat preserved, restored, or
established in conservation banks is
used to offset adverse impacts to species
that occurred elsewhere. We approve
habitat or species credits that bank
owners may sell in exchange for
permanently protecting and managing
habitat for these species. We began
approving conservation banks in the
early 1990s, and 105 banks have been
approved as of March 2013.
The Service and the Department of
the Interior’s Office of Policy Analysis
are conducting an analysis to identify
potential institutional or other
impediments to the habitat conservation
banking program, and develop possible
options for encouraging expanded use of
the program. We plan to ask OMB for
approval to implement surveys of
conservation bank sponsors and
purchasers of conservation banking
credits. The surveys will benefit the
Service by helping to identify
constraints in the current conservation
banking program, and thus provide
important information for developing
recommendations for further expansion
or perhaps changes to the program.

We will use information from the
Regulatory In lieu fee and Bank
Information Tracking System (RIBITS)
database and other sources to obtain
contact information for bank sponsors
and bank credit purchasers. We plan to
survey the entire sample of entities
taking part in our habitat conservation
banking program, and a random sample
of entities that have purchased bank
credits. We plan to collect:
(1) Background information on the
bank(s) and credit purchasers.

(2) Information about experience with
the conservation banking program.
(3) Perceptions of technical and
institutional obstacles encountered in
the conservation banking program.
(4) Perceptions of incentives that
would help foster successful banks.
(5) Information about the choice of
conservation bank credit purchase
compared to other mitigation options for
bank credit purchasers.
