OHV PUBLIC LAND ADVOCACY WEBINAR SERIES

 
NOHVCC is pleased to offer its OHV Public Land Advocacy webinar series.

These webinars, interactive web based workshops, are for OHV riders and anyone interested in OHV land use. They are designed to give riders the skills they'll need to keep trails open in their areas. Each session will be approximately 2 - 3 hours long and will be conducted by the same OHV management experts who conduct NOHVCC's on-site workshops.

NOHVCC would like to thank The Motorcycle Industry Council (MIC), The Specialty Vehicle Institue of America (SVIA), and The Recreation Off-Highway Vehicle Association (ROHVA) who made possible the creation of the webinars.

NOHVCC would also like to thank the Yamaha OHV Access Initiative program for making possible the distribution of the webinars.
    The series consists of 4 separate modules. They are:
  • Module 1 Route Designation: How Did We Get Here? (2 hours) This module will help people understand the process required for land planning, it focuses on the US Forest Service Process, but the basics can be applied to any government agency. The course also discusses the US Forest Service Travel Management Rule, its implementation so far, and how to apply it going forward; as well as the US Forest Service structure.
  • Module 2 Trail System Planning Part 1 (3 hours) This module will help riders' and land managers understand how to plan, design, manage, and maintain trail systems that meet the riders' needs by providing high quality and adequate quantities of trails. The module will start with an introduction to OHV recreationists as it is hard to plan a trail to fit their needs if you don?t know what their needs are. It will then talk about the basic principles of OHV trail system planning before going into details on what is required to plan a sustainable trail system.
  • Module 3 Trail System Planning Part 2 (2.5 hours) This module starts with an overview of what was learned in module 2. It then goes into detail regarding trail maintenance, monitoring, and signing requirements. The details will instruct the land manager in various techniques to meet their needs and give the recreationists information regarding how they can assist the land managers with these trail requirements.
  • Module 4 Making It Work: Where Do We Go From Here? (2.5 hours) The module will help riders understand how to be effective in their efforts to influence the decisions that will determine where they can ride. It will give concrete examples of how to work effectively with land managers and make comments during the agency process. The module will also spend time looking at 4 areas where the design, planning, and implementation of the principles conveyed in earlier modules have worked to create successful trail systems. The module closes with ideas for both the enthusiasts and the land managers to move forward to creating the sustainable OHV trail systems.
