Governor, land board tour forest
Monday, November 30, 2009 | No comments posted.
Gov. Ted Kulongoski is touring the Elliott State Forest today, with other State Land Board members, their staff and Department of State Lands employees.
They’ll learn about the overall forest management, including timber harvests, restoration strategies and protection of threatened and endangered species.
Timber sales receipts off the Elliott go into the Common School Fund. The State Land Board owns 91 percent of the 93,000-acre forest. The Department of Forestry manages the forest for the board.
Members of the land board include the governor, Secretary of State Kate Brown and State Treasurer Ben Westlund.
