Overview: Harney County Restoration Collaborative

This project will bring diverse partners from the community, government agencies and non-profits together to build a Declaration of Cooperation to support a landscape-scale National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process targeting the eastern portion of the Emigrant Ranger District. This project would take place within a larger effort to forge consensus for the future management of Eastern Oregon's forests. The desire is to build local capacity to address future natural resource issues in the Harney Basin and in other areas with similar forest health issues.
