HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursday, October 10, 1963 Forest Service Slates Charges For Tree Cutting A regional Forest Service pol icy of making a one dollar charge for all Christmas trees cut for personal use was an nounced today by Wright T. Mai lery, Umatilla Forest Supervisor. Holiday cutting of young trees in the Pacific Northwest has in creased so greatly in recent years that some regulation has become necessary to protect young trees for future forests. This policy has been adopted by all National Forests in the states of Oregon and Washington so that all citizens may obtain trees on an impartial basis. In order that proper refores tation may be assured, specific areas will be designated each year where Christmas trees may be cut by persons having per mits. Several forests have been using this method and charging for the trees during the past two years and report that it has worked very well. Permits for tree cutting and additional info r m a t i o n are available to citizens of this area at the District Ranger offices located in Dale, Heppner, Pen dleton and Ukiah in Oregon and in Pomeroy and Walla Walla in Washington.
