Description

The Healthy Landscapes (HL) Program is a dynamic, long-term landscape scale, collaborative interdisciplinary effort to restore and sustain natural aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and their associated processes, while providing for managed development. HL uses a science-based landscape-level approach which combines biological planning, conservation design and delivery, establishment of a data clearinghouse and information management framework, while utilizing an integrated inventory, monitoring, and research strategy to guide the adaptive management cycle. Strategic restoration of native ecosystems and their services, and habitats to recover listed species and prevent future listings, will be emphasized across watersheds and sub-watersheds, and ultimately entire eco-regions, while maintaining the natural productivity of the working landscapes. This goal will be reached through collaboration with other federal agencies, Tribal, state and local governments, private land owners, permit holders, non-profit and non-governmental organizations, and private industry.
