Contains files created during Wheeler's time as Secretary for Resources for the State of California, including correspondence, memoranda, reports, and clippings.

Besides Wheeler's position as Secretary, his involvement with the Nature Conservancy, the Keystone Center, Resourceful California, and the Sierra Summit are all well represented. The collection also includes materials related to environmental research projects, most notably the Sierra Nevada Catalog, the Heinz Center's report card on the nation's ecosystems, and the CERES Project (which is also represented on CD-ROM). This collection provides useful materials for researchers interested in environmental policy in California during the 1990s.
