Description

Democrats in Oregon's congressional delegation sent a letter to Kim Prill, the acting director for the region at the Bureau of Land Management, seeking a pause and more public comment on the plan to greatly increase logging in western Oregon forests.

Oregon’s congressional Democrats are asking federal officials to give the public more time to learn about and comment on new plans that would open up millions of acres of federal forests in Oregon to logging activity not seen since the 1960s.
