COOPERATIVE LAND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT ON CONBOY LAKE NWR - THE ADMINISTRATION OF ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION AND STEWARDSHIP PROJECTS ACROSS THE MT.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS DURING THE 2018-19 YEAR INCLUDED CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE'S FOREST STEWARDSHIP PLAN AND INCLUDED TREATMENTS ACROSS APPROXIMATELY 57 ACRES, INCLUDING CONTRACTING A FORESTRY SERVICES CONTRACTOR TO REMOVE SEVERAL DOZEN TRUCKLOADS OF TREES/LOGS TO IMPROVE FOREST STAND CONDITIONS FOR WILDLIFE HABITAT, RESILIENCY AND FIRE CONTROL. NET REVENUES FROM THIS UNDERTAKING ARE HELD IN AN ACCOUNT WHERE THE US FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE DIRECTS OUR ORGANIZATION TO MAKE INVESTMENTS IN ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION PROJECTS FOR WHICH OTHER FUNDING IS NOT IN HAND. PROJECT REVENUE AND EXPENSES ALSO REFLECTS DETAILED MONITORING OF THE IMPACT OF FOREST TREATMENTS ON WATER CAPTURE AND STORAGE ACROSS THE REFUGE.

WE WORKED WITH UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON RESEARCHERS TO SUPPORT A STUDY OF THE ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTIONS OF COMMUNITY FORESTS ON LOCAL ECONOMIES, USING THE MT. ADAMS COMMUNITY FOREST AS AN EXAMPLE. AND WE CONDUCTED VARIOUS ASPECTS OF NEGOTIATION, DUE DILIGENCE AND OTHER ACQUISITION SUPPORT TASKS NECESSARY TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE, VIA A LOAN, OF AN ADDITIONAL 154 ACRE COMMUNITY FOREST PROPERTY. LASTLY, SMALL QUANTITIES OF PRODUCTS FROM THE FOREST THAT WERE GENERATED FROM STEWARDSHIP ACTIVITIES WERE SOLD.
