WGA Report Review

The Western Governors Association has just released a comprehensive report on the forest restoration needs of the 11 western states. That report is stored on our website   and seems to mirror most of the discussions we had at the Workshop in January. The Partners ask that you review the report  (16 pages) and report back to the IFRP Partners as to the applicability of the WGA concepts and recommendations to the work you are doing in your individual Collaboratives. 

A Forum has been established at that same link which is available to all visitors. We are asking that you:

  • Make comments regarding  the good and not-so-good portions of the report, as it affects your Collaborative efforts.
  •  Forward this message to others in your Collaborative who might be interested in commenting.
  •  Make recommendations as to what actions, if any, the IFRP should undertake to support the WGA in this effort.

Comments may be posted by following the instructions at the bottom of the page.

Thank you for your participation. Thanks also to those Idahoans and members of the Idaho Collaboratives on the WGA Forest Health Advisory Committee and  those who attended the September, 2010, WGA Workshop (Pages 14 & 15).
