Participants were granted confidentiality, so their identities are not revealed and interviews are not cited. Questions pertaining to the BDP in particular, and place-based legislation in general, were asked of all participants. The initial round of formal interviews was followed by several additional inquiries and conversations with those involved in place-based forests proposals throughout the West

    • Consider, for example, conflict over BLM management of O&C grant lands, governed under the Oregon and California Lands Act of 1937, 43 U.S.C. §§ 1181a-1181j (2006). Unlike other federal land laws and regulations, the O&C Act includes specific but contested language pertaining to community stability. Classified lands shall be managed ... for permanent forest production, and the timber thereon shall be sold, cut and removed in conformity with die principal [sic] of sustained yield for the purpose of providing a permanent source of timber supply, protecting watersheds, regulating stream flow, and contributing to the economic stability of local communities and industries, and providing recreational facilties [sic]. 43 U.S.C. § 1181a. Once sustained yield is determined, the Act also requires timber from O&C lands to be sold annually at "not less than one-half billion feet board measure, or not less than the annual sustained yield capacity when the same has been determined and declared ... or so much thereof as can be sold at reasonable prices on a normal market." Id. Associated regulations state that sustained-yield units contain enough land "to provide, insofar as practicable, a permanent source of raw materials to support local communities and industries, giving due consideration to established forest products operations." 43 C.F.R. § 5040.1 (2009). Whether or not the O&C Act is a multiple or dominant use statute has received a lot of debate. The Courts have also wrestled with the Act's provisions and how they were meant to be prioritized. Though timber shall be supplied, O&C lands are also subject to NEPA, the ESA, and other environmental statutes, thus setting up multiple conflicts over their management. See, e.g., Headwaters, Inc. v. Bureau of Land Mgmt., 914 F.2d 1174 (9th Cir. 1990) (interpreting the O&C Act as a dominant use statute that limits the ability of the BLM to manage for non-timber purposes).

We all understand that compromise is part of the legislative process, yet at the same time, I would submit that wilderness is not for sale. Simply put I believe we should not seek the lowest common denominator when it comes to wilderness and saddle a wilderness designation with exceptions, exclusions and exemptions."

It helps pay for reforestation costs and some overhead expenses and has been criticized for creating incentives to offer uneconomical timber sales. More recent criticism has been directed at the agency's Salvage Sale Fund (created by NFMA, 16 U.S.C. § 472a(h) (2006)) which allows the USFS to retain money from salvage sales, and to spend it with some discretion, rather than return it to the Federal Treasury. The Ninth Circuit noted the agency's "substantial financial interest" in harvesting timber as part of this program while questioning the agency's decision making in post-fire logging analyses and disputes.

    • The RPA/NFMA: Solution to a nonexistent problem
    • Still relevant is the critique that NFMA's forest planning mandate was a "solution to a non-existent problem." Former Forestry Professor and Dean Richard Behan argues that the Bitterroot and Monongahela controversies-two cases that catalyzed passage of NFMA-were essentially place-based conflicts that had little to do with planning. These conflicts, he says, could have been solved without elaborate and questionable planning requirements. See Richard W. Behan, The RPA/NFMA: Solution to a Nonexistent Problem, 88 J. FORESTRY 20 (1990).
