The Okanogan and Wenatchee National Forest Plans, forest plan monitoring reports, and other assessments and planning documents are available.

Current Projects

Find information here about specific projects that the Okanogan and Wenatchee National Forests are evaluating, planning, or actively implementing. The Schedule of Proposed Actions (SOPA) and NEPA projects documentation including supporting maps and documents are available.

Resource Management

Colville and Okanogan-Wenatchee Forest Plan Revision

The Colville and the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forests are revising their Forest Plans. The plans will be revised to reflect resource and social changes on all three Forests, as well as new scientific information.

The two national forests will release a plan revision proposed action on June 30, 2011, which initiates a 60-day comment period that ends on August 29, 2011. The Proposed Action is the first formal step to developing a draft revised forest plan and the draft environmental impact statement.
