Master Development Plan
The Mt. Bachelor Master Development Plan 2010 has been prepared to comply with terms of Mt. Bachelor's Special Use Permit (SUP) with the Deschutes National Forest. The entirety of the Mt. Bachelor ski resort occupies a portion of the National Forest and is operated under a SUP granted by the United States Forest Service (USFS). A Master Development Plan (MDP) provides a comprehensive and systematic approach for proposed future development at the resort, and is a precursor to beginning approval processes under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
