Chapter II is divided into two sections. The first discusses the current special conditions of the resources of the Forest. These discussions include a general assessment of the supply and demand projections for most of the resources The second section lists information and research needs identified during development of the Plan RESOURCE CONDITIONS AND SUPPLY AND DEMAND TRENDS This section discusses the special resource conditions as of March, 1985 that influence the resolution of the issues, management concerns, and resource oppottunities. It is presented in two parts The first part discusses the supply and demand condtions of the key resources pertinent to the resolution of the major issues identified in Chapter I of the accompanying EIS. A table summarizing supply conditions and demand projectionsis presented at the end of the first part. The second part discusses the conditions of the other resources important and relevant to understanding the remaining issues and management concerns but less influential in the resolution of the major issues. As used in this section of the document, demand is defined as a particular want or need at some point in time. The want or need is assumed to represent a willingness on the part of the Forest user to pay for the desired product or service at that point in fime.
