CHANTELLE MEYER/SIUSLAW NEWS
Florence Mayor Joe Henry (center) proclaimed October as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month during
Monday’s Florence City Council meeting. He read statistics which stated that 1-in-4 women will experience domes-
tic violence in her life, and 1-in-5 will experience sexual violence. “In Florence, Siuslaw Outreach Services continues
to provide advocacy services to women and men who have been victims of domestic violence, and serves, on aver-
age, over 150 persons per year,” Henry read. After concluding the proclamation, Henry added, “I want to say thanks
to Siuslaw Outreach Services and to all the volunteers. They do a real good job for us. It’s sad in a community of
our size that we have this problem, but it is there with us.” SOS led a march for awareness last week.

supervisor’s office in Corvallis.
There will be a reduced supply
of personal use permits due to a
current shortage of harvestable
wood.
Those interested in purchas-
ing a commercial permit must
first contact the district office,
541-563-8400, to learn how to
submit an advance permit
request in writing.
Individuals may purchase a
commercial permit for up to a
maximum of 15 cords. The cost
for commercial permits is
$20/cord with a six cord mini-
mum and 15 cord maximum,
with 30 days to harvest the
wood.
Across the forest, firewood
harvesting must occur in desig-
nated cutting areas only. Maps
are available for review at dis-
trict offices prior to purchasing
a permit and will also be issued
at the time of permit sales.
When collecting firewood,
harvesters are reminded to:
• Adhere to provisions listed
on their permit
• Clean up cutting area, scat-
tering or removing debris from
wood cutting
• Keep firewood lengths to 6
feet or less when transporting
• Accurately record quanti-
ties cut on their removal cards
and firmly attach load tags to
the transported wood
If collecting only limbs,
chunks of wood or bark for per-
sonal use only, firewood gath-
erers should request a free-use
permit. No power equipment
can be used when gathering
free-use firewood. Free-use
permittees cannot gather their
firewood within cutting areas
designated for paid permittees.
Failure to comply with pro-
visions on any firewood permit
may result in fines up to
$5,000, forfeiture of the permit,
or both.
For more information or to
obtain a permit, contact a
Siuslaw National Forest office
in Corvallis (541-750-7000);
Hebo (503-392-5100);
Reedsport (541-271-6000); or
