Conflicts between trees and fish arise because the two resources share the same watersheds The main thrust of the bul letin is that forestry and f i shery management need not con flict. By protecting stream- side vegetation and minimizing sources of sedimentation th r ough careful planning, these r e sources can be produced at the same time in the same water sheds for the benefit of man. Lantz outlines the require ments of salmon, steelhead, and trout and points out the vital importance of small streams and creeks, many of which may be intermittent or dry in summer, in the production of salmonids in many cases these small tributaries provide most VISIT IN EUREKA of the spawning gravel for m ig Mr. and Mrs. George McDon- ratory fish runs.

Lantz prefaces his remarks with the reminder that timber and fish have flourished in the Pacific Northwest since pioneer days. Legends grew up around the colorful individuals who made up the backbone of each SHOP House Acts On Two Proposals of $350,000 annually per acre of spawning gravel The sec ond relates to the sockeye runs in the Fraser River, B ritish Columbia, where most of the spawning occurs in about 300 acres of spawning gravel With the commercial catch valued at as high as 50 m illion dol lars annually, each acre of gravel is capable of producing salmon valued at more than $160,000. Such dollar value points out the fact that few, if any, land uses produce as high a per-acre yield as that produced by the limited acres of spawning gravel in Oregon as well as other salmon, steelhead, and trout rivers of the Pac ific Coast. Hatcheries, Lantz "advises, supplement natural production and play an important role in fishery management. However, hatcheries have not replaced natural production. F urther more. maintaining hatcheries involves high costs that are not present when these fish spawn and rear under natural conditions. What Lantz is say ing is that nature provides the bulk of our fish resources for free, the same as she provides most other natural resources. He concludes that the future of Oregon's salmon, steelhead, and trout resources depends on how our streams are protected. Lantz discusses the effects of logging operations on fish and water quality in the Douglas fir regions of the state. He points out that physical chan ges in streams caused by log ging can be avoided by keeping streamside vegetation intact and taking precautions to minimize soil disturbances and erosion. He discusses surface dissolved oxygen levels in relation to logging debris; subgravel d is solved oxygen in relation to yarding and falling, streamside vegetation in relation to water temperatures; stream sedimen tation in relation to fish, their habitat, and food; and logging road location, design, con struction. and maintenance Lantz recommends four main points to protect fish habitat and water quality in logging oper ations and elaborates on each. These include stream clearance requirements and enforcement; the protection of streamside vegetation in all logging oper ations where fish, w ildlife, and water quality are involved or can be affected in downstream areas, harmful effects of falling trees into or across streams; and the detrimental effects of yarding through streams. Can our forest watersheds be managed to provide wuod products as well as fish for commercial fishermen and a growing number of sport fish ermen, Lantz asks? He then answers his own question by saying -- yes. Yes, if both resources are considered in planning and the plans are fu l ly implemented on the ground. Lantz describes how specific water quality changes are re lated to specific logging prac tices. Once these relationships are understood, he advises, in formation can be applied during the planning stages of any log ging show so that detrimental c anges to streams can be av oided. And in the planning, emphasis must be placed on prevention of physical changes to streams rather than on r e habilitation after the damage is done. now/ F.
