Northwest Forest Plan & Amendment

The 1994 Northwest Forest Plan is an overarching land management plan that applies to seventeen national forests and one national scenic area to address impacts to threatened and endangered species while also contributing to social and economic sustainability in the region.

What’s changed? Thirty years later, the landscape within the Northwest Forest Plan area has experienced significant social, economic, and ecological changes - prompting a formal amendment process to improve the management framework to align with these current conditions and challenges. The amendment focuses on five key areas that have been identified as part of this need for change. Learn more and get involved: https://www.fs.usda.gov/goto/r6/nwfp.
