Habitat management, Habitat restoration

Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) supports military training while also hosting 90% of the remaining prairie habitat in the South Puget Sound. Through the Sentinel Landscapes Partnership, the Departments of Agriculture, Interior, and Defense work with a variety of partners to promote working lands, protect wildlife species and habitat, and ensure military readiness at the base.

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is proud to stand with this array of partners in the South Puget Sound region to maintain sustainable military operations at JBLM, a vibrant agricultural economy, and effective conservation of rare species and their habitats.
