NITE 7:30 p.m. Congress. Can it see the forest for the trees? Oregon, timber-rich and timlx r-UcpenJcnt, is faced with an artificial timber shortage. Short sighted Congressional policy and lacked funding for the U.S. Forest Serv ice are the two principal problems. Almost 75 of Oregon's timber volume is on federal land. The U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, oper ating according to Congressional policy, can harvest only as much as they can grow in the future. It's called the 'non-declining eventlow' harvest policy. However, because Oregon National 1 ore-its are dominated by old, slow -growing timber, cur rent harvest levels are kept artificially low. What can be done? If more of the old -growth timber is harvested, and -enlaced with young, fast growing trees, . then harvest levels will increase because future growth will increase. The 1980 Oregon Forest Productivity Report shows that Oregon's National Forests w ill grow 2-12 times as much wood if the slower growing older timber is replaced with vigorous, intensively-managed young trees. We're not advocating cutting down all the old-growth stands in Oregon. Many are in Wilderness areas, and others are in areas of high recreational value. But much of the old growth timber is simply Oregon's Commercial Forests Timber lnenlory Annual Harvest rotting away, unseen and unproductive. U.S. Forest Service figures show that nearly 2 billion board feet of Oregon timber the equiv alent of 20-25 of the annual harvest dies each year and is left to rot. Most of it is on federally -managed forest lands. U.S. Forest Service attitudes are encouraging. The real problem is lack of Congressional fund ing and understanding. Congress needs to take a step back and see the forest for the trees. What can you do? It's especially important for people who live and work in communities with forest products operations to take an interest in the timber sup ply issue. Oregon's forest -based economy is too important to waste vast stands of old timber. Please write us for more information: Oregon Forest Industries Council, P.O.
