The State Coastal Conservancy seeks two attorneys to join our six-person legal team. The Conservancy is a small state agency that protects natural resources, including wetlands, open space, rivers, and watersheds; addresses the impacts of climate change, including sea level rise and extreme weather; and increases opportunities for the public to get to and enjoy the coast. The Conservancy works along the entire length of California’s coast, within coastal watersheds, through-out the Bay Area, and along the Santa Ana River. The Conservancy awards and oversees grants to local governments, other state agencies, nonprofit organizations, and tribes, using various types of funding. Conservancy attorneys work mostly in the areas of contracts, real property, environmental permitting, land use, and operation of state and local government. The Conservancy’s offices are in downtown Oakland, CA near BART. For detailed information, please see the job postings at:
