Integrated Resource Management Plan
(IRMP)
Integrated resource management is an approach
to reservation resource management that takes a
whole system approaching, viewing all resources
(natural, social, cultural and economic) as being
interrelated in such a manner that management
actions directed at one resource also affect others.
As such, the integrated resource management
approach accommodates the management
of natural resources that involve multiple and
sometimes, conflicting uses. The goal of the IRMP
is to balance those multiple uses in a way that
ensures the long term sustainability of all the
natural resources of the Colville Reservation.
