Develop a management plan for a site that was formerly a pine plantation managed by the Department of Forestry. The site was destroyed by fire in 1998 but endemic plants persist and there is potential for restoration. Develop partnerships with the neighboring urban community, especially youth; rehabilitate the area to a natural ecosystem; and conduct public awareness activities.

Strategic Direction: 1 Support civil society involvement in the establishment of protected areas and management plans in biodiversity corridors
