If you haven't yet submitted comments on the Blue Mountains Forest Plan Revision DEIS, you have until 11:59 pm tonight (9/30). This Plan will affect 5 million acres on 3 National Forests. It proposes to triple logging and strip protective standards for mature and old forests, streams, and more.

Action Alert! The Forest Service is revising Forest Plans for National Forests in the Blue Mountains, encompassing five million acres in eastern Oregon and southeastern Washington. These plans will have lasting implications for the climate, biodiversity, and clean water for generations to come.

Really appreciate this great convo from Western Watersheds Project and Dr. Boone Kauffman. Totally engaging and important listen!

WATCH: Interview on Livestock Industry Meddling in Sage Grouse Science and its Conservation Implications
Kauffman and Molvar examine the forces driving that unraveling and how political pressure and industry influence continue to distort the very science meant to guide sage grouse conservation.

Thanks to Fungaia for this video! BMBP is also very concerned about the Tiger-Mill timber sale. It was pushed through with limited opportunity for public comment, and includes logging of large trees, in never-logged and roadless areas, and on steep slopes above streams with imperiled fish.
