Alternative 1: Ecologically Focused Management• Synopsis: Focus on ecological health of watershed by
limiting development and preserving areas of high biodiversity and fire danger
• Development:• Minimization of development• RLUP scenario• Encourage conservation
easements• Exclude areas of:
• Potential wolf habitat• Preble’s habitat• High biodiversity • High fire danger
