Since 2003, the Northern Federation has been developing the Regional Resource Protection Plan. The goal of this Plan is to provide regionally consistent recommendations and actions for the identification and protection of the Region’s Natural, Historic, Scenic, Agricultural, and Recreational resources. Specifically, this Plan:

• Identifies municipal resources and Regionally significant resources;
• Recommends developing community, Regional, County, and state support for municipal and regional plan initiatives;
• Coordinates municipal implementation of this Plan; and
• Provides strategies, the legal basis, legislative actions, and information on organizations which will help enable municipalities to succeed in their preservation efforts.
