Environmentalists criticize Beuter appointment
WASHINGTON (AP) - Environmen
talists criticized the timber industry's
links to an Oregon forestry economist
newly appointed to a top federal job
overseeing the U.S. Forest Service.
Agriculture Secretary Clayton Yeutter
on Friday appointed John Beuter of Cor
vallis as his new deputy assistant secre
tary for natural resources anil the envi
ronment.
Beuter. a former Oregon State Univer
sity professor who now works for a for
estry consulting firm in Portland, will
become the top assistant to Assistant
Agriculture Secretary James Moseley ef
fective next month.
"John has many years of experience
in forestry management and econom
ics.” Yeutter said in a statement from
the international trade talks in Brussels.
Belgium.
"He will be able to use his back
ground to help promote natural resource
conservation and work with state and
local governments and other federal
agencies involved in this task.” he said
Bcuter, 54. is a forest economist for
Mason, Bruce and Girard Inc. of Port
land. a leading consulting firm in the
timber industry.
Environmentalists said Friday his
work on behalf of some of the nation's
largest timber companies may bias him
against efforts to slow logging in the
Northwest's old growth forests
Karlier this year, the activists accused
Neuter and other co-authors of an indus
try study of exaggerating anticipated job
loss tied to protecting the northern spot
ted owl.
Sydney Butler, The Wilderness Socie
ty's vice president for conservation, said
Friday that Neuter's "work on Iwhalf of
the timber industry is well known."
Tim Hermach, executive director of
the Native Forest Council based in Eu
gene said, "Clayton Yeutter wants to
sell all the trees to make a buck and has
chosen a good man to help him.”
Andy Kerr, conservation director of
the Oregon Natural Resources Council,
said Reuter's timber supply studies have
been overly optimistic and misleading
because they suggest that the national
forests can make up for timber shortfalls
on private lands.
‘•His two timber supply studies were
not critical in nature, in that they as
sumed for example that the Forest Ser
vice will spend more money per acre
than Weyerhaeuser does to grow trees."
he said.
Reuter, in a telephone interview from
his Portland office, said the criticism
was unfounded.
"That's an inaccurate representation
of me. My interests are professional for
estry I'm a forester." Reuter said
