US Fish & Wildlife Service Malheur National Wildlife Refuge

                                                                           Jess’s presentation will be on:                                                                                        

Comprehensive Conservation Planning: Then and Now.

The National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act of 1997 requires that every national wildlife refuge develop a comprehensive conservation plan (CCP) and revise it every 15 years, as needed. The purpose of a CCP is to specify a management direction for the Refuge; the goals, objectives, and strategies for improving Refuge conditions—including the types of habitat to be provided, partnership opportunities, and management actions needed to achieve desired conditions – are described in the CCP. Malheur National Wildlife Refuge’s original CCP process, completed in 2013, is known as a model for collaboration. With 15yrs from its adoption on the horizon, Refuge Leadership is reflecting on the success of implementation from the CCP and making plans for CCP 2.0! Join Jess Wenick for a presentation on this reflection and plans for the future!

Attendance is FREE

Donations are welcome. Suggested donation of $10/attendee.

Join us in person at the Harney County Community Room, 484 N Broadway, Burns, located next to the Harney County Chamber of Commerce office or sign up to attend via Zoom: https://bit.ly/3uRBvNx
