involves high costs that are
not present when these fish

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.
