What is the Sierra Nevada Forest Plan Amendment (SNFPA, also known as the Sierra Nevada Framework) and why was there a need to improve it?
The Sierra Nevada Forest Plan Amendment (SNFPA) outlines procedures used to manage and protect forests, wildlife habitats, and communities from a variety of threats, including catastrophic fires. Almost immediately upon its adoption in January 2001, the SFNPA generated considerable feedback from concerned citizens, groups, and Forest Service personnel. The current improvements result from an exhaustive review process that began in response to this feedback.
