MEASURES OF SUCCESS
In striving to meet the intent of these Goals, the Department will begin with the
leader’s intent in mind. We will make adjustments as data and analysis inform our
forward progress, and we will tailor to each goal and objective the methods used
to measure success. With concurrence from the Executive Team, each Goal Working Group will define the timelines to meet successful outcomes as outlined in the
Roles and responsibilities section below. The intent as we initiate action on each

• Implement fuels reduction projects on at least 50,000 acres annually
• Continue to work with the Stewardship Council, conservation easement
