Common use of Stakeholder Involvement Clause in Contracts

Stakeholder Involvement. Stakeholder involvement in the adaptive resource management process is through multi-stakeholder collaborative planning efforts. The focus for such multi-stakeholder collaborative planning efforts shall be through ongoing collaborative work of the COPWRR CROP initiative. The COPWRR CROP collaborative efforts have been focused on including stakeholders whose interests align with place-based (Central Oregon) and issue-based (wildlfire risk reduction) issues. It is the intent of this MOU to continue with and build on the COPWRR CROP collaboration and ensure that all interested stakeholders in projects developed under this MOU can be included in collaborative planning efforts. For example, stakeholders for projects developed under this MOU have been identified as generally falling within four categories, but are not limited to such categories: (1) federal, state and local governments/agencies and community organizations within or proximate to a project area; (2) environmental organizations with special interest and expertise in forest and ecosystem management in the geographic scope of project; (3) industry, including lumber ▇▇▇▇▇ and forest contractors that operate within or proximate to the program area; and (4) organizations with a focus on sustainable economic development and job creation. It is anticipated that collaborative planning shall focus on two major categories: (1) project planning and (2) environmental monitoring. These collaborative efforts will be organized around an information-based planning model and will assist in the development of phased implementation, project identification, development of project protocols, and development of environmental monitoring protocols, implementation and reporting.
