Preparers Notes The Department of Conservation and Natural Resource's Technical Working Group (TWG) prepared the Nevada Natural Resources Status Report under the guidance of the NNRP Steering Committee. The Steering Committee includes the director and assistant director of the Nevada Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, and the administrators of the divisions and special programs within the Department. The TWG members who are participating in the development and implementation of the NNRP planning process include: Jennifer Newmark Natural Heritage Program John Walker Division of Environmental Protection Verne Rosse Division of Environmental Protection David Cowperthwaite Division of Environmental Protection Steve Weaver Division of State Parks Mark Farman Division of State Lands Mike Del Grosso Division of State Lands Denise Adkins Division of Conservation Districts Doug Driesner Division of Minerals Anita Cook Division of Wildlife Jason King Division of Water Resources Rich Harvey Division of Forestry Chuck Moses Department of Agriculture Don Henderson Department of Agriculture Ed Skudlarek Department of Conservation and Natural Resources In addition to assistance provided by many hard working people throughout the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, we are very grateful for the time, effort, and contributions from other state and federal agencies. The state draft Natural Resources Status Report could not have been prepared without special efforts by those agencies that take the important step of making their databases, maps, and technical reports available to the public. We extend a special thanks to these people at the: Nevada Department of Agriculture Nevada Division of Minerals, Commission on Mineral Resources Nevada Bureau of Health Protection Services, Heath Division Nevada State Historic Preservation Office Nevada Department of Transportation Nevada Energy Office Nevada Commission on Economic Development Nevada Public Utilities Commission U.S. Bureau of Land Management, Nevada State Office U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Nevada State Office U.S. Forest Service, Humboldt Toiyabe National Forest Supervisor's Office U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service U.S. Geological Survey U.S. Department of Defense U.S. Department of Energy Next Page -- Map of Nevada Back to Table of Contents
