    Lakeview Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration (CFLR) Project monitoring plan
    (Ecosystem Workforce Program, Institute for a Sustainable Environment, University of Oregon, 2015) Markus, Amy; Davis, Emily Jane; DeMeo, Thomas; Bormann, Bernard T.
    The Lakeview Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Project (CFLR) was selected for funding in 2012. Multiparty monitoring, evaluation, and accountability are required to assess the positive or negative ecological, social, and economic effects of projects implemented. Monitoring is an essential part of adaptive management, because it provides reliable feedback on the effects of management actions and it allows managers to refine decisions and project design through a learning based approach to management. Multiparty monitoring helps to achieve the CFLR’s goals of “improving communication and joint problem solving among individuals and groups” to better manage landscapes.

    Several trends have emerged in recent years that affect the management of the National Forest System, particularly in the western U.S. One is the recognition of landscapes departed from a natural range of variation, especially with implications for wildfire management. Another trend is the economic decline in many rural communities of the western U.S., particularly those based on natural resource activities such as timber production. Finally, there is increasing acceptance of collaborative approaches to forest management. Collaborative approaches endeavor to increase mutual learning among previously polarized parties, find consensus to accomplish objectives, and improve the quality of public participation while addressing recent landscape and socioeconomic concerns.
