Mojave Desert Network
Committees and Working Groups
The Mojave Desert Network governing body consists of two main over-sight committees and a network charter.
The network's supervisory oversight is provided by a Board of Directors (BOD) made up of the Superintendents from the seven network parks. The Pacific West Region I&M Program Manager and the Network Program Manager are ex officio members of the Board. The BOD is chaired by one of the seven Superintendents; a term as chairperson lasts one year. Every Superintendent must serve a term before any is eligible to serve a second term.
The Technical Committee (TC) provides technical advice and assistance to both the network office and the BOD. This committee is made up of park Resource Chiefs, Science Advisor, the Network Program Manager, and the Network Data Manager. The TC coordinates the MOJN I&M activities and provides decision points to the BOD. In addition, the TC imparts guidance to the subject expert workgroup(s). The Network Coordinator is responsible for convening regular meetings and inviting other park staff, partners, and contributors as dictated by the meeting agenda.
The Network's Working Groups are composed of subject experts and interested personnel that provide technical expertise to the network's technical committee and I&M staff. The groups are primarily composed of personnel selected from within the network parks, from allied agencies in the area, and from neighboring university faculty.
