Acknowledgements
The Steering Committee of the BRNBA Conservation Partnership has put in countless hours helping to create the Conservation Framework. Suzanne Easton, Rob Thayer, and Ray Krauss made significant contributions in writing and reviewing. We are especially grateful to Tina Stott and the PMC Conservation and Resource Planning Group for their consulting services on the project. Jake Mann, GIS consultant, worked tirelessly on the maps and conservation analysis, supplementing the groundbreaking modeling work of the Information Center for the Environment at U.C. Davis. The Partnership also greatly appreciates the years of support given by the Bay Area Open Space Council staff. In addition, without grant funding from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the Resources Legacy Fund Foundation, this important work would not have been possible.
