SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bull
Run watershed, located in the Mt. Hood
National Forest, is the largest and oldest
of the several water supplies serving the
Portland metropolitan area. Its role in
the region’s past, present and future,
along with its unprecedented level of
water quality, make it a high priority for
both the City and the Forest Service to
take the steps necessary to ensure its
continuing quality, productivity and
protection.
As the City and the Forest Service
began to look closely at the
administrative and policy frameworks
that guided their interactions they noted
that much of that framework dated from
the late 1970s and arose from the
direction provided in the 1977 Bull Run
Management Act (Pub. L. 95–200). As
little of that framework had been
updated over time, its applicability to
current issues and needs is limited.
Thus, this Agreement replaces the
existing 1979 MOU, aligns practice with
existing legislation, and provides the
revised administrative direction and
agreements needed to structure the
parties’ roles, responsibilities, business
process and working relationships for
the coming decades.
The City and the Forest Service, along
with community interests in the greater
Portland metropolitan area, have had a
long and sometimes contentious history
of working together to protect and
manage the valuable ecological and
water resources of the Bull Run
watershed. But with the coming of the
21st century, the issues and conflicts in
policy and direction that held attention
for the last fifty years have all but
disappeared. Now, the parties are
turning to the future, responding to new
fiscal realities, and working together to
frame the structures, processes, roles
and responsibilities that will allow them
to act effectively as joint stewards of this
valuable regional and national resource,
in concert with citizens who
increasingly desire to redeem their
responsibilities in stewardship of their
lands.

the Mount Hood National Forest are
