GLOSSARY
CUTTING THROUGH THE JARGON
(Note: this page is a work in progress!)
Placer Land Trust has compiled this glossary of terms and acronyms used in publications related to land conservation in the Placer County region. We try not to use a lot of jargon or acronyms on our website and in our publications; but just in case, you can use this glossary to help identify things we let slip through. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to give us a call!
