Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The socioeconomic monitoring report addresses two evaluation questions posed in the Northwest Forest Plan (the Plan) Record of Decision and assesses progress in meeting five Plan socioeconomic goals. Volume I of the report contains key findings. Volume II addresses the question, Are predictable levels of timber and nontimber resources available and being produced? It also evaluates progress in meeting the goal of producing a predictable level of timber sales, special forest products, livestock grazing, minerals, and recreation opportunities. The focus of volume III is the evaluation question, Are local communities and economies experiencing positive or negative changes that may be associated with federal forest management? Two Plan goals are also assessed in volume III: (1) to maintain the stability of local and regional economies on a predictable, long-term basis and, (2) to assist with long-term economic development and diversification to minimize adverse impacts associated with the loss of timber jobs. Progress in meeting another Plan goal--to promote agency-citizen collaboration in forest management--is evaluated in volume IV. Volume V reports on trends in public values regarding forest management in the Pacific Northwest over the past decade, community views of how well the forest values and environmental qualities associated with late-successional, old-growth, and aquatic ecosystems have been protected under the Plan (a fifth Plan goal), and issues and concerns relating to forest management under the Plan expressed by community members. Volume VI provides a history of the Northwest Forest Plan socioeconomic monitoring program and a discussion of potential directions for the program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Northwest Forest Plan (the Plan) was developed in 1994 to resolve debates over old-growth forests and endangered species on federal forests in the range of the northern spotted owl. In 2005, federal agencies reviewed the first 10 years under the Plan to learn what worked and what did not, what changed, and what new information or surprises might influence these forests in the future. I highlight the monitoring results and new science from that review. Following are some of the key findings. Nearly all existing older forest habitat on federal land was protected from timber harvest. Older forest on federal land had a net increase of over 1 million acres in the first 10 years of the Plan. Despite protection of northern spotted owl habitat on federal land, spotted owl populations declined at a greater rate than expected in the northern half of their range, likely because of barred owl competition, climate, and the changing condition of historical habitat. Watershed condition improved slightly, because of reduced harvest in riparian areas, tree growth, and increased emphasis on restoration. Federal timber harvest in the Plan area averaged only 54 percent of Plan goals. In spite of mitigation measures, some local communities near federal lands had job losses and other adverse effects. State, federal, and tribal governments worked together on forest issues better than they ever had before. Increased collaboration with communities changed how the agencies get work done.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Implementation of the President's Forest Plan for the Pacific Northwest: Oversight Hearing Before the Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests, and Lands of the Committee on Resources, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session The problem that we are having is, I have talked to everybody from all different levels to find out what we can do. The final deci sion, some people say that we cannot remove any wood from lsrs. Some say that it will be up to the forest supervisors to do it. Some say that the regional ecosystem office has the final say about it, or at least it is a screen that it has to go through. Anyway, it is very confusing, who has the final say, but we are working on this. The Medford elm district also has downed timber and they will do whatever we decide on this team to do. I guess, in summary - oh, there was also some suggestion that the ecosystem office in the White House might also be involved in this decision. I suggest that this plan should be clarified and simplified, less prescriptive, letting the local supervisors have flexibility necessary to manage and make it clear that wood production is part of the management. As a local elected official, I have devoted two terms to helping empower and strengthen local communities. There is a great deal of mistrust in a top-down prescriptive system heavy with regulation and laced with punishment. The system of local empowerment I am describing is built on trust and confidence and people making right decisions in local communities with their local forest. Surely this is the system we want for the United States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
