The fate of the Cas-
cade-Siskiyou National Mon-
ument’s expansion may hinge
on the president’s authority
over 2.4 million acres of fed-
eral O&C Lands in western
Oregon.
A federal appeals court
must decide whether Con-
gress has eliminated the pres-
ident’s ability to ban log-
ging on O&C Lands within
the monument’s expanded
footprint.
Because commercial tim-
ber harvest is prohibited
within the national monu-
ment, critics claim Presi-
dent Barack Obama lacked
the power to double its size
during his final days in office
in 2017.
Roughly 40,000 acres
added to the monument are
governed by the Oregon &
California Lands Act, which
established logging as the pri-
mary purpose on federal for-
estlands retaken from railroad
companies 85 years ago.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals is now consid-
ering whether Obama had
the power to override that
requirement under the Antiq-
uities Act, an even older fed-
eral law that allows pres-
idents to create national
monuments.
“There is simply no way
to reconcile those competing
demands. They are wholly
incompatible,” said Julie
Weis, attorney for Murphy
Co., an Oregon forest prod-
ucts manufacturer, during
oral arguments on Tuesday.
Congress dedicated O&C
Lands to a sustained yield of
timber production, so allow-
ing the president to ignore
that command would under-
mine the separation of pow-
ers among the legislative and
executive branches of the
U.S. government, she said.
“That would be highly
repugnant to the rule of law,”
Weis said. “There are limits
to executive authority.”

TODAY'S TIDES
gon, where logging on fed-
eral lands has already been
curtailed by the Endangered
Species Act and other envi-
ronmental statutes.
County governments in the
region are adversely affected
by logging restrictions, since
they rely on federal timber
harvest revenue, while ranch-
ers worry livestock grazing
will also face greater reg-
ulatory burdens within the
national monument.
Unlike other types of fed-
eral property, which are man-
aged for multiple uses, the
U.S. Bureau of Land Man-
agement cannot ban log-
ging on vast swaths of O&C
Lands, Weis said.
Commercial timber har-
vest cannot occur within the
110,000-acre national mon-
ument, which clearly con-
flicts with the dominant use
of O&C Lands, she said.
“They may still be called
O&C Lands but they’re now
off-limits to timber produc-
tion,” she said. “BLM does
not enjoy unfettered dis-
cretion in managing these
lands.”
