Plans

The Oregon Habitat Joint Venture's partners work within a planning framework that links local habitat conservation priorities to the regional goals of the Pacific Coast and Intermountain West Joint Ventures.

A series of Oregon "focus area" plans developed in the 1990s provide a broad overview of wetland and wildlife resources and describe conservation needs and opportunities in general areas identified as "target areas" for Joint Venture action.

In 2003-04, joint venture partners also put together an "all-bird" conservation plan for eastern Oregon to provide a unified set of priorities for all four of the national and international bird conservation initiatives.

Draft and completed plans are available below in PDF format. When complete, the overall Joint Venture plan will include individual plans for the following Oregon focus areas:
