  • Survey stakeholders (using Survey Monkey)
  • Organize public meetings/stakeholder input sessions (4 meetings in different locations) to refine issues to be addressed in the Assessment
  • Conduct GIS overlay analysis reflective of feedback on Indiana forest issues
  • Use the forest issues as a framework to internally draft the Assessment
  • Draft Assessment and share with stakeholders for input 
  • Incorporate stakeholder review comments
  • Survey stakeholders regarding strategy development
