The Canyon Country Partnership is an interagency, grassroots initiative which grew out of the vision and efforts of local agency managers. The goals of the Partnership are two-fold:  1) collaboration among members of the Partnership, including the sharing of information and re-sources so that management decisions can be made with an un-derstanding of potential impacts to adjacent lands; and 2) sustainable land management, i.e., preserving ecosystem functions while providing products that society needs and desires.
