Oregon Forest Waters: Out of Balance

Oregon's logging rules for rivers and streams lag far behind other Northwest states. It's time to modernize practices that are endangering salmon and dirtying drinking water.
Oregon’s clear, cold lakes and rivers are the pride of the state. But for decades, the state has been falling behind in protecting forested streams. Oregon's outdated logging rules are now far less protective than in neighboring Washington, Idaho and California. And that’s harming Oregon waterways and taking a steep toll on fish, wildlife, and communities.
Oregon can and must improve protections from heavy logging near streams, to keep safe its most precious resource-water.
