Summary

The Morongo Basin Conservation Priority Setting Project was undertaken between 2008 and 2010 as part of ongoing efforts to support the basin’s long-term development and conservation. Project efforts are based on goals that originate in community values and are grounded in conservation science. This report presents the results of the project. It is intended to serve as a resource guide to inform conservation choices and support planning activities in the basin. It is our hope that the choices and decisions made as a result of our priority setting will respect our “backyard” desert landscapes while supporting the social and economic well-being of basin communities over the long term.
