3 million secured to finance sales
THE STORE WHERE YOUR DOLLAR
Pine beetle
WILL DO THE MOST
Congressman Robert Dun
can, D-Ore., announced that
the Interior Sub-Committee of
Appropriations agreed to his
request for supplemental to
the 1977 Budget of great
importance to the State of
Oregon.
Duncan was successful in
securing a $3 million advance
to a revolving fund, as pro
vided for in the National
Forest Management Act of
1976, to finance salvage sales
primarily in Eastern Oregon,
where Lodge Pole Pine and
Ponderosa Pine has been
killed by the Mountain Pine
Beetle. The dead timber from
La Grande to John Day
constitutes a major fire haz
ard, made worse by the
terrible Western drought. The
$3 million will be repaid to the
Treasury as the sales are
made and thereafter the fund
will be self-sufficient. Duncan
pointed out: "The only known
way to combat this insect
infestation is by sanitation and
salvage and, of course, the
timber will again increase
production."
