The current Coronado National Forest Plan is undergoing revision. Public participation in the revision process is welcome. Please visit our Plan Revision website for complete information.
FThe Coronado National Forest amended its 1986 Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP)
with a proposed Wildland Fire Amendment.
The purpose of the Wildland Fire Amendment
was to update the LRMP's existing wildland fire management direction to comply
with the 2001 Federal Wildland Fire Management policy (also know as the Federal
Fire Policy).
The Federal Fire Policy recognizes the essential role of fire
in maintaining natural systems and allows managers a broader range of options
when responding to wildland fires.
Changes were made to the Forest-wide
Goals, Standards and Guidelines in the LRMP to integrate the Federal Fire policy. These changes were documented at the Wildland
Fire Amendment Home Page.

Mid-level planning documents, including landscape or watershed
assessments and roads analysis, are an intermediate planning step
between the Forest Planning (programmatic) level and project planning.
Recommended management actions are the primary result of assessments.
Livestock grazing is an important activity on the Coronado National Forest, with over 35,000 head of cattle permitted on almost 200 allotments. Long term management of the allotments is directed by the Coronado National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) and individual Allotment Management Plans (AMPs).
Other environmental documents may be found here, including environmental assessments and information about the scenic management system.
