The Citizen Forest Plan will apply the best available science to:

• protect our roadless with wilderness character and our Wild & Scenic waterways
• protect habitat for threatened, endangered and sensitive species
• protect and restore water quality for native fish and people
• identify and protect habitat linkages for wildlife
• allow natural processes such as fire and insects to play their role in shaping the landscape
• minimize threats to human communities and essential infrastructure through pre-fire planning based on scientifically-based standards
• maintain high-quality opportunities for solitude and primitive recreation including hiking, backpacking, hunting and angling
