SIMMONS, logging specialist NORTHEASTERN FOREST EXPERIMENT STATION FOREST SERVICE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE - - - WASHINGTON, D. C, 1951 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 75 cents Preface THOSE who want to be successful in any line of work or business must learn the tricks of the trade one way or another. For most occupations there is a wealth of published information that explains how the job can best be done without taking too many knocks in the hard school of experience. For logging, however, there has been no ade- quate source of information that could be understood and used by the man who actually does the work in the woods. This NORTHEASTERN LOGGERS' HANDBOOK brings to- gether what the young or inexperienced woodsman needs to know about the care and use of logging tools and about the best of the old and new devices and techniques for logging under the conditions existing in the northeastern part of the United States. Emphasis has been given to the matter of workers' safety because the accident rate in logging is much higher than it should be. Sections of the handbook have previously been circulated in a pre- liminary edition. Scores of suggestions have been made to the author by logging operators, equipment manufacturers, and professional forest- ers.

  • Human Uses and National Forest System Land Management
    Summary of Public Comment on Roadless Area Conservation Chapter 6 Human Uses and National Forest System Land Management This chapter presents the range of public comment discussing human uses of the national forests, and roadless areas in particular. Given that the Notice of Intent proposed possible restrictions on “all activities . that do not contribute to maintaining or enhancing the ecological values of roadless areas,” and that the set of action alternatives analyzed in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) are prohibitionary in nature, almost every response to the Draft EIS addresses human uses of national forests in some way. A great many people who generally favor a roadless conservation rule feel that the Preferred Alternative does not meet the mandate of the president or the purpose described in the Notice of Intent. These respondents request a wide array of further restrictions, especially in regards to timber harvest, mining activities, and motorized recreation. They feel that both ecosystem health and roadless values are unacceptably compromised because the proposed rule does not directly address commodity and recreational activities. Opponents to the proposed rule feel that broad multiple use management should be practiced in roadless areas and does not harm the environment. Current management of the national forests provides ample opportunity for addressing management of roadless areas and threats to the ecological health of roadless areas are greatly exaggerated, many say. A wide variety of recreationists and commercial users feel their use of the forests will be unreasonably restricted by the proposed rule or by the likely restrictions they believe will follow thereafter.
