SIX-The Heppner Gazette-Times. Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, September 6. 1979 Forest Service releases timber resource plan for decade of forests -1 4 4 ' A Timber Resource Plan Draft Environmental State ment (DES) proposing a . timber management program for the Umatilla National Forest for the next ten years was made public and trans mitted to the Environmental Protection Agency. Aueust 31 . 1979, according to H.B. Ru-. dolph, Forest Supervisor. The existing Timber Re-. source Management Plan went into effect in 1962, and has been amended by the Regional Forester. The Timber Resource Plan DES describes four manage ment alternatives and pre sents an environmental as sessment and comparison of the effects of implementation for each alternative. The Forest Service pre ferred alternative provides for a programmed harvest level of 181.5 million board feet (149.1 million board feet of ponderosa pine and associated species and 32.4 million board feet of lodgepole pine). Imple mentation of the plan which will not occur before October 1, 1980, will mean that the Umatilla's programmed an nual harvest level may be increased by 33 million board feet. This increase will be phased in over the next ten years, as funding and person nel become available. The Forest Service is asking the public to review and comment on the Timber Resource Plan DES. Public comments should be sent to the Forest Supervisor, Uma tilla National Forest, 2517 SW Hailey Avenue, Pendleton, OR 97801. They must be received not later than October 30, 1979. "We will hold a series of open houses next month, to provide an opportunity for the public to discuss aspects of the Timber Resource Plan DES with Forest Service resource staff on a person-to-person basis," Rudolph said. "Dates and locations of the open houses will be announced later.

Record your tax rebates Taxpayers may want to record the amount of the income tax rebate checks they receive from the Oregon Department of Revenue. The information may be needed next spring for filing federal tax returns. The rebates are not taxable by Oregon. However, they may be taxable income for some federal taxpayers. Those persons who itemized deductions on their 1978 fed eral returns and deducted the state tax paid must add the amount of the rebate back into their 1979 income. The rebates, which amount to 9 per cent of an individual's 1979state income tax, are part of the 1979 Oregon Legisla ture's tax relief plan.
