| dc.description.abstract | At the request of the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), we are conducting a third-party review of the Integrated Resource Restoration (IRR) budgetary approach, which has been implemented on a pilot basis for three years in USFS Regions 1, 3, and 4 since fiscal year 2012. Our objectives are three-fold: 1) To understand strategic planning approaches and whether improvements in efficiency, prioritization, flexibility, and achievement of restoration outcomes are occurring under the IRR pilot; 2) To assess internal perceptions of the pilot, current challenges, and opportunities for improvement; and 3) To determine the extent to which current performance measures and targets facilitate accomplishment and communication of outcomes under the pilot. Our evaluation will take place over two years, in three phases, and began in August 2013. This report summarizes our findings from phase 1, which involved interviews with staff from the pilot regions. | en_US |
