Buchanan has been the Forest Supervisor on the Lincoln National Forest for 2 ½ years and was the Deputy Forest Supervisor on the Lincoln for three years before that. Jacque has been a US Department of Agriculture employee for 22 years. Prior to coming to the Lincoln, she was the District Ranger on the Glenwood Ranger District of the Gila National Forest.
