The BLM OR-WA department is offering this grant for comprehensive oak and pine-oak habitat restoration in Oregon’s Medford District. This initiative involves applying model prescriptions for various oak habitat types—savannah, shrub-oak, and closed canopy forests—with tailored treatments. These include thinning, noxious weed removal, prescribed burning, and planting. High-priority areas will be treated in a second phase, subject to fund availability. Additionally, the grant supports vital outreach and knowledge transfer through field trips, presentations, and stakeholder meetings, ensuring broad information dissemination and fostering community engagement in these critical restoration efforts.

| Description: | This project will apply model prescriptions for restoration treatments to different types of oak habitats. For example, oak savannah, shrub-oak habitats and closed canopy forest (where oak was historically dominant) would have different treatments such as thinning, noxious weed removal, prescribed burning and planting depending on the need. In the second phase of this project as funds become available, high priority areas will be treated.
In addition to implementing treatments, field trips, presentations and meetings with stakeholder groups would allow for dissemination of information, outreach and knowledge transfer. |
