Implementation becomes the responsibility of the Forest Service and the rancher. This involves following the direction of the management plan and monitoring. Monitoring is done by Basin staff, grazing permittees, and other Forest Service staff. If monitoring indicates that resources aren't improving or management isn't properly implemented then adaptive management is used to improve conditions. Current management of the Basin's rangelands has led to a steady improvement of natural resources affected by grazing.
Recent photographs show a positive trend in the recovery of degraded areas.
The goal of the Forest Service in Lake Tahoe is to continue to improve at risk and maintain healthy rangelands so that all present and future users may benefit.
