Wildlife Area Management Plans

The Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) manages nearly one million acres of land around the state for fish and wildlife, habitat conservation and wildlife|related recreation. These lands are divided into Wildlife Area complexes consisting of 32 different wildlife management areas.

Management plans developed for each Wildlife Area identify specific management objectives for each complex and strategies for achieving them. Each of these plans was developed with the help of local Citizen Advisory Groups, which play a vital role in WDFW’s land management strategy. This kind of public participation promotes the inclusion of local values and perspectives and helps WDFW identify social, cultural and economic issues important to the local community.

The WDFW Lands Division updates the management plans on an annual basis, providing an opportunity to evaluate the success of ongoing strategies and identify new issues to be address in managing the state’s wildlife areas.
