| Abstract | We conducted a case study of the process for developing ZOA created by the Blue Mountains Forest Partners (BMFP), a collaborative group established in 2006 and focused on the northern portion of the Malheur National Forest in Grant County. This group was one of the first to formalize their ZOA, and there is interest from other groups and policy makers in learning from this example. As forest collaborative groups develop social agreements pertaining to public forestland management, documenting these shared understandings may prove useful going forward. Doing so provides a common reference point for current and future members, and articulates the collaborative’s perspectives for external stakeholders such as the Forest Service. Collaboratives interested in developing their own version of ZOA may benefit from the experience of groups such as BMFP. |
