Trump’s roadless rule repeal won’t deliver his timber boom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Trump administration’s plan to open roadless areas of national forests to potential logging won’t do much to meet President Donald Trump’s timber goals, if estimates the Agriculture Department released Wednesday prove accurate. Rescinding the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule could boost timber harvests in national forests by 5 to 10 percent at most — and even that’s unlikely, USDA said in a draft of a proposed rule posted Wednesday in the Federal Register. The estimate falls far short of
Trump admin to lift logging limits in national forests (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Trump administration plans to remove restrictions on logging across more than 40 million acres of national forest, the Agriculture Department said.

The restaurant chain buys most of its frozen fries from Idaho-based Lamb Weston, whose motto is “Possibilities in Potatoes.” But a host of challenges — droughts, heat waves, pesticide-resistant insects and surging production from foreign competitors — confronts farmers and companies alike in the heart of U.S. potato production. Potato farmers planted
Dems float big bill on wildfire, roadless protections (opens the original)
Read excerpt
House Democrats on Thursday said they’ve combined 25 forest- and wildfire-related bills into one big legislative package summarizing their positions on management of federal lands. The measures cover bipartisan issues like boosting pay for wildland firefighters, as well as more divisive matters such as permanently blocking logging in designated roadless areas of national forests. “Hotter summers and drier forests mean wildfires are burning more intensely and reaching towns that never used to wor
