The Implementation Matrix identifies and organizes the recommended courses of action that have been developed through a collaborative effort between representatives of local jurisdictions, property owners, Fort Drum, local organizations, the general public, and other stakeholders that own or manage land or resources in the region. Since the Fort Drum JLUS is the result of a collaborative planning process, the strategies represent a true consensus plan; a realistic and coordinated approach to compatibility planning developed with the support of stakeholders involved throughout the process.
The JLUS strategies incorporate a variety of actions that promote education, communication, compatible land use, and resource planning. Upon implementation, existing and potential compatibility issues arising from the civilian / military interface can be removed or significantly mitigated. The recommended strategies function as the heart of the JLUS document and are the culmination of the planning process.
