Natural forces such as the quality of the air, the energy of the sun, and the power smoldering deep under the lava flows are characteristic of Central Oregon. The local governments and community residents must work together to ensure these natural forces are not diminished. In support of this effort the Plan has the following goals:

■    to maintain or improve the air quality for a healthful and desirable urban environment;

■    to encourage energy conservation and the development of energy producing facilities that use renewable resources; and

■    to work with state and federal agencies to develop new, more accurate mapping data on flood plains, faults, and other local natural hazards within the urban areas.
