The spirit of powwow. . .
Legislation creating the Colum
bia Gorge National Scenic Area
(CGNSA) was signed by the Presi
dent November 17, 1986 and now
becomes law in managing 277,000
acres of the Columbia Gorge, ac
cording to USDA Forest Service
Regional Forester James F. Tor
rence. "We're pleased the Congress
and the Administration has been
able to resolve their concerns so
that we now have a law," Torrence
said. "We're pleased with the con
fidence they have expressed in the
Forest Service and the role they
have identified for us in imple
menting the legislation. We are
delighted to have a law which iden
tifies what we as an agency have
realized for a long time, that the
Columbia Gorge is a special place.
We-iook forwrd to working with
the Governors of Washington and
Oregon, the Columbia Gorge Com
mission, and the six counties in
volved in developing management
direction for the area."
The legislation divided the
CGNSA into three areas. Urban
areas are exempt from most of the
provisions. About half of the re
maining area is under the jurisdi
citon of a special commission to be
established through a bi-state
agreement. The remaining areas,
the Special Management Areas
(SMAs) will be managed by the
Forest Service. The Forest Service
will work with the Commission in
developing a management plan for
the entire CGNSA. The legislation
also directs the Forest Service to
acquire lands in the SMAs through
purchase from willing sellers or
exchange for existing National For
est lands outide the SMAs.
"I am appointing a special man
agement team to begin immme
diate implementation of this legis
lation," Torrence said. "Art Du
Fault, Forest Supervisor of the
Winema National Forest, head
quartered in Klamath Falls, has
been selected to head that team as
the National Scenic Area Manager.
He will begin that assignment im
mediately. The team will initially
work out of the regional office in
Portland.
"The Forest Service has a long
history in the Columbia River
Gorge," Torrence added. "In 1915,
we provided scenic protection of
nearly 14,000 acres between War
rendale and Viento State Park by
creating the Columbia Gorge Park
Division."That same year, the For
est Service also constructed Eagle
Creek Campground, the first Na
tional Forest Campground in the
nation, and built recreation trails
up Eagle Creek and Herman Creek.
"The Forest Service considers itself
one of the original environmental
ists in the Gorge."Torrence added.
During the 1930s the Forest Ser
vice, with the assistance of the
Work Progress Administration
(WPA) and the Civilian Conser
vaton Corps (CCC), built an exten
sive trail system and additional
picnic grounds and scenic view
points. In 1937, about 20,000 acres
were added to the Columbia Gorge
Park Division, extending it west to
include parts of Larch Mountain.
Torrence said, "We continue to
provide outstanding opportunities
to the public with sites such as
Multnomah Falls and Lodge, over
200 miles of interconnected trails,
two campgrounds, and numerous
picnic sites and viewpoints."
