  • Stewardship Contracting on the Malheur National Forest
    Stewardship Contracting on the Malheur National Forest February 2018 In September 2013, a ten year stewardship contract was awarded to Iron Triangle to complete restoration work on the Malheur National Forest in eastern Oregon’s Blue Mountains. The contract was awarded largely in response to the imminent closure of a mill in the town of John Day, a local crisis that created an unlikely alliance of industry and environmentalists. Ultimately, state and federal government officials intervened to save the mill through an innovative stewardship contract. In order for the mill to remain operational, they needed assurance of a consistent and long term supply of wood. While stewardship contracts have been used by the Forest Service since 1999, this contract is significant for its ten year commitment and the benefit it brings to the local community. Implementation After sending out a request for proposals, when the mill was saved, new opportunities Malheur National Forest awarded a ten were created locally because the contract year Integrated Resource Service Contract could assure enough supply to sustain (IRSC) to Iron Triangle, a contractor based businesses Residents report an increase in out of John Day.

Ecosphere 9(8):e02400. 10.1002/ecs2.2400 Abstract. A major goal of managers in fire-prone forests is restoring historical structure and composition to promote resilience to future drought and disturbance. To accomplish this goal, managers require infor- mation about reference conditions in different forest types, as well as tools to determine which individual trees to retain or remove to approximate those reference conditions. We used dendroecological reconstruc- tions and General Land Office records to quantify historical forest structure and composition within a 13,600 ha study area in eastern Oregon where the USDA Forest Service is planning restoration treatments. Our analysis demonstrates that all forest types present in the study area, ranging from dry ponderosa pine-dominated forests to moist mixed conifer forests, are considerably denser (273–316% increase) and have much higher basal area (60–176% increase) today than at the end of the 19th century.

To say 1920s and 1930s, by the late 1940s and 1950s, it was methodically undoing whatever nothing of their values as fountains of timber, they are worth infinitely more than all good it had done earlier by declassifying administrative wilderness areas that contained the gardens and parks of town. any commercial timber. —John Muir1 Just prior to the end of its second term, and after receiving over a million public comments in support of protecting national forest roadless areas, the Clinton Administration promulgated a regulation (a.k.a. “the Roadless Rule”) to protect the Inadequacies of Administrative remaining unprotected wildlands (greater than 5,000 acres in size) in the National Forest System from road building and logging. At the time, Clinton’s Forest Service Protections chief Mike Dombeck asked rhetorically: here is “government protection,” and then there is government protection.

    John Day - Snake River RAC October 7, 2016 Boardman, Oregon Meeting called to order at 8:05 a.m., October 7, 2016. Designated Federal Officials begin their respective reports: • Vale, BLM • Umatilla National Forest 1. Jim Reiss: Concerns over water rights pertaining to mining-what happens to water pools from mining activities once the operations have concluded? a. Randy Jones: It is generally left to evaporate. 2. Randy Jones: How can the John Day- Snake River RAC interact with the land management agencies in terms of providing comments and suggestions related to the Blue Mountain Forest Resiliency Plan? a. Gen Masters: The RAC can recommend increased budgetary support for the Umatilla National Forest as well as encourage public support of upcoming and ongoing projects. Also, the Umatilla National Forest will be bringing projects to the John Day- Snake RAC for review in the near future. • Prineville, BLM 1. Jim Reiss: Pertaining to potential State Park establishment, what is the anticipated use of the park? a. Carol Benkosky: Use of the roads to access the area are different than anticipated-users are preferring to access the river via Starvation Lane. 2. Jim Reiss: How are grazing permits being managed? a. Carol Benkosky: Grazing is currently being managed by Western Rivers, as a private contract. The land is being leased and if the land becomes federal land, grazing will continue per federal grazing regulations. 3. Bryan Sykes: It sounds like the goal of acquiring these lands is to maintain public access? a. Carol Benkosky: Yes. There are also maintenance concerns with the area, so a plan will be required to be developed.

  • 2016 Oregon Big Game Hunting Outlook Conditions for Big Game and Hunters Are Looking Much Better Than They Were a Year Ago
    2016 Oregon Big Game Hunting Outlook Conditions for big game and hunters are looking much better than they were a year ago. Back in August of last year, 100 percent of Oregon was in severe drought and 50 percent in the even worse category of “extreme drought.” While parts of NE and SE Oregon are still experiencing a severe drought, conditions have improved across the state. “We had normal winter precipitation and a wet spring,” says Autumn Larkins, ODFW Assistant District Wildlife Biologist for Harney County. “Water availability is much better this year.” It’s a similar story in northeast Oregon. “The weather is much better suited to deer and elk production as opposed to last year’s record drought,” said Mark Kirsch, ODFW District Wildlife Biologist in Umatilla County. The increased water also better distribute animals during hunting season, rather than cluster them around fewer water sources. It should help distribute early season hunters, too— especially those pronghorn and bowhunters who crowded around the few water holes to set hunting blinds in recent years. The conflict between hunters over blind placement has gotten so bad that ODFW and BLM recently put together a flyer reminding hunters of the rules and good etiquette Now wildlife biologists are crossing their fingers for rains in September. These early fall rains green up forage and help big game put on weight, so animals head into breeding season in good body condition and fit to reproduce. Despite the increased moisture, fire is still a threat throughout Oregon. Most forestlands will have restrictions (such as no campfires) during fire season, and some private lands will be closed to public access entirely.
