The Lower San Pedro IBA, particularly the riparian corridor from Cascabel to Dudleyville (including the BHP lands at San Manuel).  Securing long-term protection and conservation management for the riparian corridor, thus ensuring ecosystem health and function and wildlife habitat protection is our goal here.
