Forest Restoration Program
Restore Native Vegetation and Forest Communities
Successful implementation of the Tahoe yellow cress (TYC) Conservation Strategy (CS2015) will continue to prevent the need to list TYC under the ESA and will protect the species per California and Nevada State law. The TYC CS established management goals and objectives to provide measurable targets for the conservation and management of TYC within the adaptive management framework. These goals are: G1: Protect TYC plants and habitat on public lands, G2: Promote stewardship, protection, awareness of TYC on private lands, G3: Manage TYC populations for persistence, G4: Utilize key management questions to direct research, G5: Continue long-term monitoring, G6: Use adaptive mgmt framework
