San Juan Islands San Juan Islands Forestry Products and Business Directory 2013 PUBLISHED BY THE NORTHWEST NATURAL RESOURCE GROUP photo © Matt Freeman-Gleason This directory is intended as a resource for individuals, landowners, forestry workers, and county officials who want to learn more about island wood products and the local businesses that are utilizing our unique forest resources. The San Juan islands are seeing a renewed interest in growing, harvesting, and building with local trees. The businesses in this directory offer a viable alternative to mainland wood products for all types of projects. Our thin soils and scant rain mean slower growing trees with tight clear grain, perfect for trim, flooring, and furniture. Many local houses, barns, and sheds are clad in rough sawn local boards often from the land where the building sits. The architects and builders in this directory have created buildings entirely from local timber with beautiful results. Historically the islands had a booming timber indus- try as the forests were cleared for farm land and our harbors made easy access to barge the logs to mill. As the resources were exhausted the economy shifted and it’s only in recent years that the forests have regrown sufficiently to offer high quality timber at economically viable scales. The growing number of businesses that deal in local wood are part of a larger ethic of forest stewardship that sees the island’s forests not only as a resource, but as a vital part of our overall community health. Safeguarding these forests while sustainably managing and harvesting from them is offering new opportunities for the island economy. We hope you find this information useful and if you or your business would like to be included in future edi- tions please contact us we’d be happy to have you.

  • San Juan Islands National Monument Site Catalog June 2017
    San Juan Islands National Monument Site Catalog June 2017 San Juan Islands National Monument BLM Lopez Island Office PO Box 3 Lopez, WA 98261 37 Washburn Place Phone: (360) 468-3051 Email: blm_or_sanjuanisland.gov Introduction In 2013, President Obama designated approximately 1,000 acres of federally managed land as the San Juan Islands National Monument. This site catalog provides a snapshot of existing resources and uses on the Monument landscapes. The catalog includes approximately 700 acres currently under Bureau of Land Management (BLM) jurisdiction and nearly 300 acres withdrawn to the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) that are in the process of being relinquished to the Bureau. The BLM and USCG currently co-manage those lands. Today the BLM is in the process of developing a land use plan for the Monument. Anticipated to be published in 2018, the planning process considers a range of potential management approaches and may redefine the activities that the BLM encourages or prohibits in each Monument location. When the final plan and environmental impact statement is published the activities allowed at any given location may differ from those described in this site catalog. Anyone visiting after the summer of 2018 should contact the Monument office on Lopez Island (see cover page for contact information) for updated information. The Monument is located within the traditional use area of a number of Native American Tribes who continue to utilize and value the lands and resources in the Salish Sea region. Fishing, hunting, gathering, and other traditional activities by tribal members are protected by treaty. Please be respectful of the area’s tribal heritage and of activities that may be taking place during your visit.

  • SEAWATER INTRUSION in COASTAL LOPEZ ISLAND (WA) AQUIFERS
    FURTHER EVIDENCE of SEAWATER INTRUSION in COASTAL LOPEZ ISLAND (WA) AQUIFERS Laura Strom Russel Barsh August 2010 Summary Aquifers in low-lying coastal areas, including islands, are frequently in contact with seawater. Significant withdrawals from wells can draw seawater into these aquifers, gradually increasing aquifer salinity to the point that water is no longer potable. The San Juan Islands were largely below sea level in early post-glacial times (8,000-10,000 years ago), moreover, flooding aquifers with seawater that may remain trapped under lenses of more recent freshwater additions. While these aquifers may no longer be in contact with the sea, withdrawals that exceed the rate of recharge (from precipitation and infiltration) can mix the relict saline water with remaining fresh water. Relict seawater and seawater intrusion limit the availability of potable water throughout the San Juan Archipelago, but especially for low-relief islands such as Lopez where most aquifers lay below current sea levels. The U.S. Geological Survey tested 184 Lopez wells for chlorides in 1997. Half of the wells tested had chlorides in excess of 100 mg/L (parts per million); one in ten wells exceeded 250 parts per million. While these values are very small in comparison with the chloride concentrations in seawater around the islands (32,000 parts per million), they are evidence of underground mixing of seawater and freshwater, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommends that drinking water be kept below 250 parts per million chlorides. Increased rates of withdrawal from compromised aquifers—or decreased rates of aquifer recharge due to climate change—may continue to increase salinity in affected wells until they are no longer potable.
