Forest Service Enterprise Program
Supporting the Forest Service Mission
The White River National Forest reached out to Enterprise in 2018 to create a series of trailhead and specialty panels. Enterprise created 156 trailhead and interpretive panels through the project agreement.
The Rock Creek watershed located in southwest Oregon encompasses 62,600 acres and provides habitat for one of the most diverse assemblages of native fish in the Umpqua Basin—including the prized spring Chinook salmon, winter, and summerrun steelhead, Endangered Species Act-listed coho salmon, and coastal cutthroat trout.
Enterprisers often find unique ways to support the agency-this is what we are here for. It is built into our business model. An example is our support of the Washington Office's Engineering, Technology, and Geospatial group related to energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs).
Enterprise partnered with the Cibola National Forest to complete a new interpretive sign focused on the Oso Ridge Airway Beacon 61. Beacon 61 was one of a network of lighted beacons that guided airplanes during nighttime travel from the 1930s to the 1960s.
Enterprisers from the recreation program are assisting the Los Padres National Forest, Monterey Ranger District with visitor use management challenges in the iconic Big Sur coastal area of central California. Along California State Highway 1, this national and international travel destination is experiencing unprecedented visitation and associated issues such as the increased risk for wildfire, off-road vehicle impacts, and traffic congestion.
