Abstract

The 7J Ranch, recently acquired by The Nature Conservancy (TNC), requires strategic and sensitive master planning to ensure the preservation of a diverse wildlife ecology while introducing additional program opportunities that include eco-tourism, research laboratories, artist residence, sustainable infrastructure, and public outreach. Through community engagement with TNC, university programs, and local stakeholders an ecological master plan was developed to incorporate environmental protection and public advocacy within the rural town of Beatty, Nevada.
