In 29 May 2007, in order to protect this valuable area and to ensure its survival, the Mihai Eminescu Trust and the Local Council of Sighişoara undertook the custody of the reserve. The custodians and their partners committed to protect the veteran oaks on the Breite, to ensure the regeneration of the oak collection by planting oak saplings, to promote the reserve in the country and abroad and to elaborate a management plan for the reserve based on scientific research and public consultations within maximum one year.

Since 2007 the Breite Reserve has been part of the Natura 2000 Network, being included in the sites SCI Sighişoara - Târnava Mare and SPA Podişul Hârtibaciului. In 2010, the custody of the reserve was transferred to the administrator of these sites, the Association Progresul Silvic from Sibiu.
