INTRODUCTiON Thiring the past few years there has been a great deal of thought in regard to conservation. The redwood lumber industry is confronted with a great deal oÍ' public opinion in regard to the conservation of redwood timber, a very limited and valuable species. In past years the operators of the region have not been worried by public opinion or conservation. During the eighty years of redwood logging,clear cutting was the practice and a great amount of wood waste has gone with it.

Companies sought to increase the efficiency of their operations by reducing the number of compensable accidents and fatalities among their workers. They took the lead in creating a safety regime in forestry, but were joined in the endeavor by the provincial Workmen’s Compensation Board (WCB) and the forest workers’ union, the International Woodworkers of America. Safety programs were heavily gendered, with companies promoting a hetero-patriarchal masculinity in an attempt to reduce worker’s risk-taking. Efforts by companies, as well as the union and the WCB, were successful in reducing many of the hazards of working in forestry. However, many of the dangers in this industry persist into the twenty-first century. iii Abstract This thesis examines the safety policies implemented by three British Columbia forestry companies between 1943 and 1968.

  • OLD-TIME LOGGING on TEXADA the Story of Early Logging On
    OLD-TIME LOGGING ON TEXADA The story of early logging on Texada is the story of coastal BC. Initially hand-loggers with only an axe, a “hand fiddle” (crosscut saw), Gilchrist jack and the Law of Gravity tackled Texada’s steep slopes. Logs were manoeuvred downhill to the chuck with great effort. Later teams of horses or oxen hauled logs over pig fat greased skid roads to chutes which plunged the logs down to the booming area below. Bill Young remembered, as a boy, watching the Sumner brothers operating near Van Anda. He eagerly awaited the huge watery explosion when an extra-speedy log would overshoot the outside boomsticks and careen wildly into the ocean. At that time Chinese crews were logging and cutting 4-foot blocks of cordwood by hand to fuel mine and sawmill boilers as well as the ever-hungry limekilns. When “Steamboat Bob” retired his steam tug, Wood Nymph, Bill Young and Bill Kirkness rivalled for the business of towing log booms to the sawmills. The Van Anda sawmill had operated for 20 years in Cumberland before it was dismantled in 1899 and shipped to Texada along with George McLeod who reconstructed it for the Carter brothers at the mouth of the creek. Over the years improvements in technology led to more efficiency. Donkey engines replaced horse teams and the A- frame-mounted, gas-powered dragsaw made cutting blocks easier. In 1910 Walter Planta and Jack Abercrombie logged the Lagoon using oxen but graduated to rubber-wheeled wagons on a tote road when they took over the Little brothers’ operations in 1927.

    SEEING THE FOREST FOR THE REDWOOD TREES: UNDERSTANDING THE SOCIAL IMPACTS OF A PROTECTED AREA ON A LOCAL COMMUNITY – A NORTHERN CALIFORNIA CASE STUDY By Alicia Jones A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Natural Resources: Forestry, Watershed, & Wildland Sciences Committee Membership Dr. Erin Kelly, Committee Chair Dr. Steve Martin, Committee Member Dr. Yvonne Everett, Committee Member Dr. David Greene, Program Graduate Coordinator July 2016 ABSTRACT SEEING THE FOREST FOR THE REDWOOD TREES: UNDERSTANDING THE SOCIAL IMPACTS OF A PROTECTED AREA ON A LOCAL COMMUNITY – A NORTHERN CALIFORNIA CASE STUDY Alicia Jones The social movement and political process surrounding logging old-growth redwood stands on private property that eventually led to the creation of the BLM managed Headwaters Forest Reserve (Headwaters) made Humboldt County, California a focal point of environmental activism and heated debate for much of the 1990s. The objectives of this research are to (1) understand the social processes that led to the creation of the Headwaters, and (2) analyze the present day relationship between the people of Fortuna, California and the Headwaters. Data collection methods included door to door surveys (n=260) and interviews with key informants (n=18). Support for Headwaters was highest among those who had obtained higher levels of education, those who lived in Fortuna longer, older participants, and females. The creation of Headwaters occurred during the contentious timber wars, and exacerbated mistrust and misgivings of many community members in timber-dependent towns such as Fortuna. The primary barrier to increased support and success for Headwaters lies in the ability of people to access it.
