The Nature Conservancy via email: <br />Good Morning Nicole, <br />Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the 2021 Recreation and Tourism Plan. We <br />appreciate the County's efforts to advance this important work. <br />The Nature Conservancy is referenced six times in the plan and most of those references are <br />accurate and supported from our perspective. However, there is one reference that we request is <br />adjusted. <br />The reference currently reads: <br />"Action Item 6.4 Conserve Open spaces <br />Define and conserve a system of open space corridors or separators to provide definition <br />between natural areas and urban land uses in and adjacent to Roslyn and Cie Elum — <br />especially the open spaces created by the Teanaway Community Forest and the recent <br />acquisitions by The Nature Conservancy." <br />While The Nature Conservancy is a partner in the land ownership, it is actually owned by the <br />Central Cascades Forest, LLC. To clarify, we propose the following edit: <br />"Action Item 6.4 Conserve Open spaces <br />Define and conserve a system of open space corridors or separators to provide definition <br />between natural areas and urban land uses in and adjacent to Roslyn and Cie Elum — <br />especially the open spaces created by the Teanaway Community Forest and the recent <br />acquisitions by the Central Cascades Forest. LILC and managed by The Nature <br />Conservancy." <br />Thanks — we look forward to hearing if this is acceptable to the County. <br />Darcy Batura (she/her) The Nature Conservancy <br />Forest Partnerships Manager 110 E First Street <br />Cie Elum, WA 98922 <br />(509) 304-5200 www.washin tonnature.or centralcascades <br />30 <br />
