The statewide initiative will involve hundreds of people from state and federal agencies, wildlife conservation groups and sportsmen in general. The Utah forest supervisors are committed to increasing benefits for wildlife in Utah and improving public awareness of how wildlife benefits them. Action items have been identified that will improve the future of wildlife and fish as an important and expanding natural resource in Utah. The vision includes improvements in habitat, populations, increased visibility of the benefits of wildlife and fish to all Utahns, and strengthening of appreciation for this important natural resource to the quality of life in Utah. Recent forest planning efforts resulted in increased public support for wildlife programs on the national forests. The initiative will be a catalyst that will accelerate a wildlife improvement programs on all national forests in Utah. The initiative will also be a cooperative effort and will mesh with the Bureau of Land Managements Wildlife 2000 program and the efforts of the Utah Department of Wildlife Resources. Already 20 action items have been identified and committees are being formed from the various agencies and interest groups. One of the action items is a symposium that will kick off the initiative and provide the opportunity for everyone to hear state and federal agency leaders and interest group leaders speak on the issues, challenges, and opportunities related to wildlife and fish in the state. The symposium will bring together all the people who will be working to accomplish the goals of the initiative and who will make the difference in Utah. The symposium will be held December 1 and 2 at the Salt Lake City Marriott, and is open to eveiyone. The initiative is designed to provide opportunities for everyone to get involved and will proceed with projects for the next few years.
