Manage the O&C lands for permanent timber production
What the document says“the new Administration must immediately fulfill its responsibilities and manage the O&C lands for “permanent forest production””
The O&C lands are Oregon forest lands governed by a 1937 statute requiring management for permanent forest production, with timber to be sold, cut and removed. The chapter says doing so would fulfill the congressional mandate, provide employment in rural Oregon and reduce the effects of wildfires.
What the document actually says“the new Administration must immediately fulfill its responsibilities and manage the O&C lands for “permanent forest production””
Manage these Oregon forests for timber. That is what the law says.
Some Oregon forests are run under an old law. It says the timber should be cut and sold. The book says that is not happening now.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
