Management

|
| The Reserve's Resource Management Program is
responsible for implementing science-based management to conserve
natural biodiversity by recommending and implementing approved
strategies to (1) protect the natural resources of the Reserve
and it's watershed; (2) identify needed hydrologic and habitat
restoration within the Reserve and its watershed; (3) restore
natural conditions to the fullest extent possible using the
best available techniques; and, (4) export information on management
and restoration activities to environmental managers and decision
makers. The primary goals are to protect and restore natural
ecological functions within the areas managed by the Reserve
through invasive species control, prescribed burn management
and hydrologic restoration of wetlands and to assist in the
recovery of endangered species through cooperative efforts with
private landowners, and local, state and federal agencies and
organizations. A primary function of the Resource Management
program is to identify and pursue acquisition, management and
restoration of natural resources at the watershed, community,
habitat and site levels by coordinating with federal, state,
local and private entities to affect watershed-scale restoration
and conservation. |
