"jgreen@vdacs.state.va.us","I am very much interested in your assessment findings for primary and secondary forest products in the international market place.  Specifically, I am interested in the effects that different degrees of value adding might have on timber markets.  It may be interesting to predict how adding value to wood products we offer to international buyers might affect both resource avalibility and product marketability.  Since most aspects of working with wood products are fairly labor intensive, especially for unskilled labor, how can we encourage value adding when other countries will, in the short term at least, be able to be much more competitive with our labor market for these types of activities.  This will continue to put much pressure on our markets to export more primary products, such as logs and wood chips.  In 1999 export figures show $498.6 million worth of wood products (This includes only HS code 44 exports.) were shipped through Norfolk, Virginia ports.  What impact does this have on private woodlot owners, and others, in the region?   ","Jeff Prestemon"

"","Stephanie, 
     Sorry for the delay in replying to your call, I was out of the office Friday. As to your question about the data, I believe Andy Hartsell mentioned he had data available for their states in an Oracle database, and had the user manual available also listing the variables collected. 
    As for our (SE) states, we're in the process of putting together a list of variables in addition to those in the Eastwide database. These additional variables would cover the last 2 surveys of each state, except Kentucky. Once the data have been extracted and compiled, they would then be added to the Eastwide format, along with definitions and info. on how they were collected. Hopefully that will occur no later than the end of March. A preliminary list of variables we're trying to add is below. The potential use of some of them may not be apparent without  definitions but will give you an idea of what we plan to make available. I hope this helps.

Roger Conner 

Variables for SE states not on the EW:
stand age
landuse (forest and nonforest codes)
plot coordinates
percent forest (from photos)
past treatment and disturbance
operability
accessibility
access road
size & shape of forest condition (photos) 
old stand size, ownership, and site productivity
wetlands

"roger_lord@bc.com","Work Plan looks good, Jeff. I'd suggest that there be consistency where possible with results of RPA's Timber Market Model projections for the 2000 RPA report, or at a minimum an explanation of why there are differences in any projections (assuming of course that RPA makes progress this spring/summer). Lots of work and review has gone into that modeling effort and it ties to national markets. Should also tap work by the Forest Products Lab (Peter Ince, Henry Spelter et. al.) through RPA process on projected technological changes and impacts on fiber supplies and utilization. Should capture that work. 

On the issue of chip exports from the South, conventional wisdom among consultant community and newsletter-writers says that the exports to Japan have peaked and volumes will gradually decline over the next 5 to 10 years as Japanese increase reliance on South American and other sources. Southern US is a high cost source for them. They are also trying to move away from reliance on native forests. Data from Carol Hydahl shows export volume peaked in 1996 and have been steadily declining since. This is a key issue tied to chip mills and could use verification and discussion.","Jeff Prestemon"

In the products of the work plan there should be something about the affects of legacy pollution on current water quality.  Much of the topsoil in the South was lost due to poor agriculture practices in the 19th century.  We are seeing high sediment levels in many streams because the topsoil is now in the stream channels.  I suggest you add a map of watersheds (11 digit HUCs) that are likely affected by legacy pollution.

Similar maps could be developed for streams that were impacted by splash dams that were used to move logs downstream in the last century.

Nothing but time will cure the impacts of these long ago practices. It should be explained that there is little we can do with current practices to fix the problems caused by these past abuses.

There also should be something in this report about the relative impact of different land uses, that is compare urban with row crop ag with animal ag with forestry.  The product should provide information about the effectiveness of BMPs in protecting water quality from each of these land uses.

One of the issues of concern is clearcutting.  Your report should compare the impacts of selection harvest versus clearcutting on water quality when appropriate BMPs are applied.  (This may be more appropriately addressed in the BMP section but I'll let you question managers work that out.)

One of the products, ""Map presentation of the evaluation of fate of forested wetlands for the South"" is right on target.  However, it seems like a pretty tall order.  If it proves to be too much I suggest that you pare it down somewhat and concentrate on just the flood plains of the major rivers.  Even if the map you suggest is doable it may be good to add another product that focuses on the flood plains of the major rivers.

I suspect that a lot of the wetlands loss can be accounted for in the major river flood plains.  We know that much of the lower Mississippi River flood plain was converted to ag in the 50's and 60's.  (By the way, because NWI maps were developed in the 70's, they may be an inappropriate base; hydric soils maps may be a better base.)

If you have to settle for just statistical information (instead of geographical information) FIA should be able to provide good information about the fate of bottomland hardwoods (bottomland hardwoods seems to be a substitute for wetlands in floodplains and is what much of the concern about excessive harvesting is about anyway).

The maps of ""forests recoverable"" should be a good product.  I'm surprised EPA is not working on this project outside the Southern Forest Assessment.  This would be a good starting point for targeting mitigation banking efforts.  Again, I think most of the concerns of the public can be met by focusing on the flood plains of major rivers.  (I also think that NWI loses a lot accuracy outside the flood plains when it tries to delineate the ""drier"" wetland types, so focusing on flood plains may provide a subset of more accurate information.)

I hope that helps.  Thanks for listening.

One of the problems with analyzing the water quality problem is the lack of monitoring.  I suggest that you add to your GIS coverage a map showing the 11 digit HUCs (14 digit HUCs would be better if available) that have a water quality monitoring station (and those that do not).  Code this by some indication of the frequency of sample collection.

One product listed is a table of 303(d) listed waters that are listed for nutrients, TSS, and sedimentation.  Since this is a forestry study this table should also indicate which streams are listed because of forestry impacts (since many of these streams are impaired because of ag inputs, a table without some indication of cause in a forestry report could indicate that forestry is more of a problem than it is).  Also I believe this product would be would be more effective as a map.

RE: TERRA-4, SFRA

Mr. Boykin,

Thanks you for the opportunity to comment on your proposed work plan.   As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned with the cumulative effects of increasingly intensive forest management practices on landscapes and terrestrial ecosystems.

First, we have read through all the work plans for the Terrestrial/Landscapes broad category, and it appears that there is currently no plan to assess the impacts of intensive forest management on soil nutrients.  As you know, soil health is critical to the long-term productivity and ecological sustainability of the South's forests.  

A study conducted by the USFS found that intensive, short-rotation clearcutting places ""demands upon the soil that may exceed the natural supplying capability of the system"" and that new practices in forestry have ""increased removal of nutrients from the soil and may demand more from the soil than the system can supply."" (Wells & Jorgensen, ""Effect of Intensive Timber Harvesting on Nutrient Supply and Sustained Productivity"" Southeast Forest Experiment Station, USDA Forest Service)

At the experts meeting in Atlanta in February, this issue was raised and it was agreed that the appropriate place for the analysis of soil nutrient sustainability would be in the Terrestrial/Landsacapes broad category.  We hope that this critical issue will not be overlooked in the SFRA.  

We also hope that this section of the SFRA will address the past and future trends of pine conversion and its effects on terrestrial ecosystems, including the increasing use of herbicides and fertilizers.  Finally, we encourage you to specifically identify clearcutting (and other forms of even-aged management), pine conversion and select cutting in the organization of the martix.  

This section should be specifically linked to the Timber Markets Broad Category (to determine how existing mills, changes in markets and changes in forest practices affect terrestrial ecosystems at the landscape level).

We appreciate your work on this most important assessment of southern forests and hope you find these comments useful.

Dear Mr. Hoge,

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for SOCIO-4: ""What motivates private forest landowners to manage their forestland and how are their management objectives formed?""  As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned about the relative lack of public access to information about forest management options other than clearcutting and pine conversion.

We do not see in you work plan, any attempt to evaluate how current state forestry agencies influence landowner objectives.  We frequently get calls into our office from frustrated landowners who have spoken to a state forester about a forest management plan and been told that their only option is clearcutting.  An objective and critical analysis of current state forestry agencies' landowner programs would be useful in determining how landowners' management objectives are formed.  

An article that appeared in the September/October 1999 issue of Forest Landowner magazine entitled ""Alternative Silvicultural Systems for Managing Your Forest"" acknowledged that ""private landowners as a group rank timber income behind such amenities as wildlife, aesthetics, personal recreation and satisfaction of ownership as a reason for owning land.""   The article acknowledged that uneven-aged management (select cutting) results in a forest ""more natural in appearance compared with even-aged (clear-cut) systems.""   The article outlined the positive features of uneven-aged management including:

 A significant stand of timber is always present.  Instead of clearcutting, timber is harvested periodically by individual tree or group selection.
 Timber quality is improved during scheduled harvests.  Selection harvesting removes trees of poor growth and form, which in turn results in accelerated growth of the best trees.
 The process requires little capital and provides periodic income while the stand is being improved.
 Volume production is concentrated in valuable sawtimber trees.
 Regeneration costs associated with even-aged management are less with uneven-age systems.
 Stands are not as vulnerable to complete destruction by wildfire, ice storms, hurricaines, disease and insects as are even-aged stands.
 Long-term uneven-aged management results in conditions somewhat similar to old-growth forests.  

The article explained how uneven-aged management requires particular thought and consideration as ""decisions on which trees to cut and which to leave require the land manager to look at each tree in the stand, its relative position, health, dominance and rate of growth and determine how its presence or absence will affect landowner objectives.""   In the same article, it was acknowledged that perhaps the biggest obstacle to private landowners for employing uneven-aged management is the difficulty in ""locating a forester that has the experience and willingness to implement [it]."" 

In addition to looking at the kind of advice state forestry agencies are giving to landowners, an analysis of what kind of management advice industrial foresters are giving to landowners would also be helpful in determining the motivations of landowners.  For both public and industry foresters, what percentage of the land management plans they write includes a prescription for clearcutting and/or pine regeneration?

We also do not see any plan to analyze the relative availability of information related to the long-term economic tradeoffs of clearcutting vs select cutting. Lack of access to this kind of information may influence landowners to choose clearcutting over select logging.  

Do landowners have adequate access to information about how to produce nontimber products from their forests (i.e. ginseng, native plants etc.)?

We encourage the study team to look at owners' perspectives on the use of the forests for recreation and other uses. We would like these ""other uses"" to include standing forest values such as biodiversity, views, fishing, hunting, nontimber forest products, carbon sequestration, pollination and pest control, wildfire control, water filtration, and other forest amenities. We would also like the perspectives of adjacent land owners on these values to be considered, as well as the costs incurred from the loss of these values due to clearcut logging.

We are interested in what you mean under ""Products"" --when you refer to landowners who are ""not propoerly managing their forest resources"" and what you mean by ""real or perceived obstacles to proper forest management"". 

We are encouraged by your acknowledgement that this section should be linked to the Timber Markets broad category.  How does the location of a particular type of mill (i.e. saw mill vs chipping facility) influence the forest practices a landowner employs?  When a new mill is constructed in an area, what is the procurement strategy and how does that affect private landowner decisions?

Finally, we are interested in the list of landowner associations and landowners listed as Collaborators in your work plan.  Do these landowner associations typically represent landowners who manage forests for timber production? for pulp production?  What percentage are managing forests in planted pine?  Do you have a balance of representative landowners who manage for quality, hardwood sawtimber, nontimber products, recreation and aesthetics?

Mr. James Granskog,

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for SOCIO-3: "" How do current policies, regulations, and laws affect forest resources and
their management?"" As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned about current policy that encourages industrial forestry practices.  

It is not clear from your work plan whether you intend to provide an objective critique of how current forest policies operate to encourage landowners to manage their forests for timber/pulp production over wildlife habitat, water quality and other nontimber products.

For example, current state ""present use"" tax valuation policies require landowners to cut timber in order to receive the reduced tax valuation.  It is not clear whether these kinds of issues will be part of your analysis.  

We also note that tax subsidies and incentives for new or expanding wood-consuming facilities is not yet a part of your policy analysis.  An evaluation of current federal and state policies (i.e. Community Block Development Grants, tax incentive packages etc.) that assist the construction and expansion of existing wood consuming facilities is a critical part of this question.  This analysis should be linked to the Timber Markets broad category to detrmine how tax subsidies inluence the location of particular mills which in tern influence forest management.

We also do not see in you work plan, any attempt to evaluate how current state forestry agency policies influence forest resources and their management.  We frequently get calls into our office from frustrated landowners who have spoken to a state forester about a forest management plan and been told that their only option is clearcutting.

Finally, an analysis of the policies underlying the ESA, NEPA and CWA should be given equal consideration to any analysis of state policies that encourage timber cutting.  How do these laws, which are intended to protect the environment, influence forest management?

Dear Karen Abt, 

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for SOCIO-5: "" What role do forests play in employment and local economies in the South?"" As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned about the potential economic tradeoffs of the continued expansion of industrial forestry. 

Any assessment of the economy's response to changes in timber-production levels should reflect a realistic appraisal of the relative importance of the services and commodities derived from the forest and acknowledge the economy's dynamic character. Applications of the economic-base model that consider timber production as fundamentally more important to the economy than the services derived from southern forests should be abandoned. 

Many researchers have shown that businesses and individuals will locate to forested areas because of the high quality of life associated with standing forests (see, Ernie Niemi and Ed Whitelaw, Assessing Economic Tradeoffs in Forest Management. Revised. PNW-GTR-403 (Portland,OR: Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station, 1999), 78 p., for example). Therefore, we would like your work plan to include an overview of the entire economy in the South, preferably using REIS data. This analysis should be done at a county level, and include personal income and employment statistics, as well as transfer payments. This information will show us the sectors of the economy related to direct use of forests, but also the sectors related to indirect use, existence value, etc.

We support the study of the impacts of forests and forest activities on the non-measured (nonmarket) economy, including impacts on stocks and flows (services) of air, water and carbon sequestration. However, we also want to see the costs to communities and individuals from intesive timber production on other non-measured values such as loss of biodiversity, views, fishing, hunting, nontimber forest products, pollination and pest control, wildfire control, etc. We would also urge the researchers to look at the economic report published March 2000 by John Talberth and Karyn Moskowitz entitled, The Economic Case Against Logging National Forests, available from the Forest Conservation Council, 505-986-1163 for additional information on non-measured or nonmarket values of standing forests.

An analysis of the economic contributions without an equally thorough analysis of the costs will result in the gross overstatement of the timber industry's overall economic contributions in the South.  

We also hope you will link this section to the Timber Markets broad category.  Who benefits and who loses when a decision is made to locate an industrial-scale, wood-chipping mill in an area? What is the net economic effect of such a decision, given the opportunity costs (i.e. tradeoffs in value-added, solid wood manufacturing industries, forest-based recreation and tourism, water quality costs, the ability of a community to attract other businesses, etc.)   

Other costs that should be considered include tax supported financial subsidies used to attract chip mills and industrial forestry operations to a community, including transportation, road maintenence and construction, education, tax incentives, etc.

In addition to defining tax revenues generated by forest and wood products operations, we would like the study team to provide the same overview for industries that depend on forests standing, such as recreation, tourism, nontimber forest products, fishing, hunting, etc.

Finally, the socio-economic implications of continued expansion of industrial forestry need to be addressed.  Studies at Auburn University specifically looked at the impacts of industrial logging on the economic well-being of rural communities.  One study found that the rural counties most dependent on the timber industry were economically worse off than other rural communities, having higher rates of infant mortality, unemployment and poverty and lower expenditures on public education. Another study conducted by the USFS Southern Research Station, entitled ""Forest Dependence and Community Well-Being: A Segmeneted Market Approach (see Dogwoods comments dated September 14 for citation) recognized that the relationships between forest dependence and community-well-being are complex and in need of further study. It found a negative relationship between per capita income and timberland concentration. It pointed out that further study of the relationships between industrial forestry and community well-being ""must be informed by important characteristics such as type of forest industrialization and level of timberland, not just the number of people employed in the greater forest sector.""    It went on to recognize that forest dependence and well-being ""cannot be measured by employment or earnings in wood products and associated manufacturing"" and that ""the portion of land in timber and the type of mill are also important indicators."" [emphasis added]  Finally, the USFS acknowledged that in order to accurately assess the relationship between industrial forestry and community well-being, that careful consideration needed to be given to ""noneconomic aspects"". None of the issues relating to community well-being as it relates to industrial forestry are included in the revised questions.  As the industry looks to southeastern forests as the primary source for expansions over the next several decades, an understanding of the impacts that this expansion will have on community well-being becomes critical.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for SOCIO-5: "" What are the supplies of and demands for forest based recreation and other
noncommodity uses of forests in the South?"" As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly pleased that this question is a part of the SFRA. 

There does not appear to be a clear plan for evaluating the economic values of the nonmarket goods and services  derrived from standing forests (i.e. water and air filtration, carbon sequestration, hydrological moderation and scenic beauty.)  

While timber values (and to some extent recreation values) are readily available to study team researchers, so-called ""noncommodity"" values seem to be more difficult to unearth. However, there are many standard economic textbooks that provide guidelines on how to do original research on these values, as well as articles and publications that provide examples on completed research. In any case, while these values are more difficult to calculate, they should not be considered in any way less important.

We would like to offer the study team a holistic approach to studying these noncommodity uses of forests. When quantifying the economic benefits of natural forest ecosystems, it is necessary to talk about the ""Total Economic Value"" of the forest. One helpful way of looking at this total value is to split the values into seven categories, as defined by Peter Morton, a resource economist with the Wilderness Society in Denver, Colorado. The values are presented in order of decreasing ""tangibility"" of value to individuals:
	
		Direct Use: This includes recreation, human development, cultural heritage, and commercial;
		Community Benefits: This includes subsistence use, non-recreation jobs, retirement income, non-labor income and recreation jobs;
		Scientific Benefits: This includes research, education, and management;
		Off-Site Benefits: This includes off-site hunting, scenic viewsheds, higher property values, increased tax revenue, and off-site consumption of information in books and magazines, and scenic beauty in photos and videos;
		Biodiversity/Conservation: This includes direct use, genetic and intrinsic values;
		Ecological Services: This includes watershed protection, nutrient cycling, carbon storage, pest control, and pollination; and,
		Passive Use Benefits: This includes option value, bequest value, and existence value.

Peter Morton has written extensively about noncommodity uses of forests in the South in the publication, Peter Morton, The Living Landscape: Charting a Course: National Forests in the Southern Appalachians. Volume 5 of 5, (Atlanta, Georgia: The Wilderness Society, 1994).

We have noticed that there are quite a few experts with high levels of experience assembled for this study team. However, we believe that the study team would benefit tremendously from having an ecological economist on board. The Forest Service has access to individuals with this type of expertise.

Finally, we would like the study team to either explain or erase this quotation from the study plan: ""Recreation uses of forests is fast becoming a dominant use in some areas of the South. Especially on public lands and in the Southern Appalachian and Interior highlands, this domination can results in limitations on management options."" We see this quote as a clear indication of a bias toward logging. Therefore, we request that it be removed from the work plan language.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for TIMBR 1: ""How might existing and new technologies influence forest operations and
resultant conditions of forests? "" As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned about how existing and new technologies influence forest conditions.

It is not clear from your work plan whether or to what extent you will address changes in processing technologies (i.e. increased use of hardwoods in paper manufacturing, the increased use of small diameter hardwood trees with the replacement of plywood with OSB) and the resultant changes in forest conditions.  

We hope you will address the increased use of in the woods chippers and the resultant impact on woody debris and that you will link this analysis to the Terrestrial/Landscape broad category.

We also hope you will address increased mechanization and link this analysis to the Socio-economic analysis, so it's effect on employment can be addressed.

Under ""Products"" you state that the ""overall goal is to provide a picture of how forest management is implemented in the South and the evolutions of technology to improve the attainment of management objectives.""  We encourage you to change this to read ""and the evolutions of technology and its effect on forest management"".  Words like ""improve"" and management objectives"" imply a bias towards industrial forest management over other, lower-impact forest management practices.  

We appreciate your work on this most important assessment of southern forests and hope you find these comments useful.

Bruce Prud'homme,

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the work plan for TIMBR 1: ""What are the implementation rates and effectiveness of BMP's in the South? "" As a coalition of 60 organizations across the South concerned about the proliferation of chip mills and the expansion of industrial forestry, we are particularly concerned about the impacts of increased logging on water quality.

It appears that your analysis is based almost exclusively on state BMP compliance rates.  We are concerned that these compliance rates will be taken as accurate and that no critique of the process for measuring compliance will be undertaken.  This is of serious concern to us as we have identified serious flaws in the measure of BMP compliance rates in the South.

One concern we have is that BMP compliance standards are performance based.  We have serious concerns that BMP compliance rates are often inaccurate and overstated since identifying violations of performance-based standards only works if there are mechanisms in place to accurately monitor compliance through timely inspections.   

For example, the NC Division of Forestry Resources (NCDFR)just completed the draft of a study on compliance with the state's Forest Practice Guidelines dealing with water quality. The draft suggested that an average of  95% of the logging sites inspected were in compliance with FPGs. Yet, in the absence of information about how many total sites were harvested and where the inspections took place it is difficult to arrive at a statistically accurate compliance rate. As outlined in the FPG study, NCDFR s current methods of identifying when and where harvests are occurring are insufficient to ensure that DFR is indeed inspecting a statistically significant number of harvest sites. We have similar concerns with the methods used for measuring BMP compliance in other southern states. 

In addition, the NCDFR report failed to take into account NCDFR's failure to consistently conduct inspections on active harvest sites.  There is evidence to suggest that NCDFR conducts inspections several months or even years after logging has been completed.  Data collected from inspections conducted months after  logging has occurred is insufficient since it is widely recognized that the most significant water quality impacts from logging occur during and shortly after harvest.  In the absence of information about the timing of the inspections, claims that 95% of logging sites are in compliance are meaningless.  The site evaluation records prepared by NCDFR do not contain any information about whether the inspection occurred before, during or after the harvest.  We have reason to believe that this problem is not unique to North Carolina since few states in the South have prior notification laws that enable them to identify active logging sites.

In addition, claims in NCDFR's report of a 95% compliance rate were inconsistent with other parts of the report that showed compliance rates of only 48% on those sites inspected as a result of citizen complaints in 1997 and 1998.  This suggests that compliance rates are much lower on active logging sites and that the reported 95% compliance rate is grossly overstated.

And while the draft report indicates that NCDFR intends to focus future inspections on active logging sites, it failed to acknowledge how the failure to focus on active logging sites during past inspections affected the accuracy of the reported compliance rate.  The draft report also fails to indicate how DFR plans to identify future active logging sites in the absence of a pre-harvest notification requirement.  When are BMP compliance inspections conducted in other states?  

For the above reasons, we are concerned that listed BMP compliance rates for other states may have similar flaws.  We encourage you to conduct an objective and critical evaluation of each state's methods of summarizing BMP compliance rates to ensure that BMP compliance is not overstated. This analysis would affectively fall under the parameters of AQUA-4(e) ""Address the effectiveness of regulatory and nonregulatory state programs for protecting water quality.""

  We appreciate your work on this most important assessment of southern forests and hope you find these comments useful.

"vrudis@usfs.msstate.edu","A follow-up to our conversation in Nashville about HUCs.
1) You were going to send me a *.shp file of the HUCs for the South. 
2) I am assuming that your office will register the FIA lats and longs to HUC locations. You already have the lats and longs from the EW data base. If not, let me know. But see item #4.
3) I am guessing that for your modeling, FIA plots (not counties) should be assigned by HUC, so you can calculate % forest by HUC, then summarize your model results by ecosection. The error introduced by resolution changes probably is something you can live with--and document with a caveat in your write-up. 
4) Exceptions to watch out for: regions or plots that FIA has a county expansion factor for, but no lats and longs. These are few in number, but are pseudolocations (with no lats and long values, or a zero value in EW) to account for the reserved acreage (problems in parts of AR, south FL, Okefenokee swamp, etc.) and some nonforest areas (coastal LA, west TX), and a few other locales. Also, if your model accounts for earth cover (rather than just land), FIA subtracts out census water areas as well by county.

Greetings from San Francisco. 

I've enjoyed looking thru the HDF website and only wish I would have been able
to use it when I was teaching at the University of Maine. 

My only comment is related to the site's use of the term ""special interest
group.""  This term is a bit of a misnomer, and instead I'd encourage the use of
simply ""interest group.""  Bill Lunch, a political science professor at Oregon
State taught that people who use the word ""special interests"" are merely
demonizing those groups to which the person using the term doesn't belong.  I
taught my students to be on the lookout for use of the ""special"" term because it
implies that the person using the term is not well-informed about the nature of
interest group politics. 

Thanks for considering my comment...just thought it'd make a worthy site even
more professional.

2) Dr Rhett Jackson at Univ of Georgia Forestry School (rjackson@smokey.forestry.uga.edu)has been looking at sediment in depth (pun intended).  Ask him about ""Dirt"" reports to legislature.

"pete@randomlengths.com","Jeff: My name is Pete Malliris. I am an assistant editor at Random Lengths, a market newsletter that covers the North American timber industry. I am working on an article for that publication regarding a trend I see toward plantation timber in the South.  Willamette Industries newly refurbished mill, Temple-Inland's new mill, and I-P's relatively new facility are three examples. What I was wondering is, have you got any statistics or other data, that either supports or refutes the notion that mills are moving more toward plantation timber?

I located your name from a ""GOOGLE"" search on the internet. Pass this message on to the person you consider best able to evaluate my suggestion supplied below.

I have NO experience with fighting fires but I read a recent report that the individuals that died in the so-called 30-mile fire in Washington State did so as the result of breathing super-heated air while enclosed within their protective ""shake-N-bakes"". I imagine SOMEONE has looked into the addition of an ""air cooler"" that individuals contained within a ""shake-N-bake"" could breath through during the expected survival period.

This device, as I envision it, would be nothing more than a water container through which all incoming air is circulated. The air bubbled through the water would be no hotter than boiling water (still plenty hot!) but survivable I would imagine. This has to be the most SIMPLE contraption available to cool the incoming air. Water to fill the bubble-chamber could be supplied from a canteen carried by the individual.

Again, I know NOTHING about the equipment carried by the firefighters and firefighting and do not know if they carry water with them while fighting fires. If this idea has not been thought of or considered, you 
are free to use it without any considerations towards me. If it could saves lives, donate any profits a commercial product may develop toward the needs of the families of those who lose their lives in fire-fighting efforts.

"jmiller01@fs.fed.us","Hi Kenneth
I was very excited to see estimates of coverage for exotic invasive plants briefly discussed in the Draft Summary of the Southern Forest Assessment being internally circulated, ie, 7 million acres each for kudzu, honeysuckle, and privet.   I was anxious to get more info on these as we are working daily with exotic plants and building programs with other organizations....and did not want to slow your progress....would it be possible to learn more about these estimates at this time or would it be best for me to wait for your published report?  I understand the demand on you with this project and do not want to hinder.  Just let me know.  We are working with FIA on the state-by-state survey of 32 exotic plant taxa as you may know...but it will take years to gain estimates of coverage and range.

EMAIL ADDRESS:<akioyibo_zoom@africamail.com>



Attn:

My name is STRUM ABEL I am the operational manager in account management section incharge of credit and foreign bills of one of the prime banks here in South Africa. I am writing in respect of a foreign customer of my bank who perished with his whole families on 25TH JULY,2000 in CONCORDE PLANE CRASH [Flight AF4590] with the whole passengers aboard.

There is an account opened in this bank in 1998 by this great late INDUSTRIALIST who died without a written or oral 'WILL' attached to the account. Since his death, I personally has watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds and no other person knows about this account or anything concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and until his death he was the manager of his company.

The total amount involved is 16,000,000.00 USD.[Sixteen Million United States Dollar]. We wish to start the first transfer with $6,000,000.00[Six million] and upon successful transaction without any disappointment from your side, we shall re-apply for the transfer of the remaining balance to your account.

I have secretly discussed this matter with the general manager of the bank who I must involve in order to have a smooth and a successful transfer of the fund to any foreign bank account which you are going to
nominate. On this note, I decided to seek for a reliable foreigner who will act as the foreign beneficiary of the fund from the deceased by providing his/her bank account where the fund will be transferred for immediate investment on any viable project as no one has come up to be the next of kin.

The banking ethics here does not allow such money to stay more than six years without claim hence the money will be recalled to the government treasury as unclaimed after this long period of domancy. 

In view of this I got your contact through my personal search to see if you can assist by providing your safe bank account for the transfer or find a reliable person who will be capable of receiving such amount in his or her personal account. 

At the conclussion of the transfer 65% of the fund will be for me, I will give you 20% of the total transfer sum, 10% for charity both in Africa and in your country while the remaining 5% will be set aside to settle expenses both parties might incure during the transfer process.

Upon the receipt of your reply, I will send to you a detailed information about the transaction. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this business is 100% risk and trouble free and that you should not entertain any fear as all modalities for fund transfer
can be finalized within 7 to 9 banking days, after you apply to the bank as the beneficiary of the fund from the deceased.

When you receive this letter. Kindly send me an e-mail or you can call me or fax me. You should also include your private fax and phone numbers for easy and safe communication.


Respectfully yours,

STRUM ABEL.

I am looking for an expert on the hemlock wooly adelgid.  My family has property in Jackson County, NC and it is heavily infested.  If you don't know the answers to the following questions could you forward to someone who is or let me know who might be.

I have heard that you can spray just plain soap (Joy or Dawn 2%)instead of a ""horticultural soap or oil"".  Is that true?  I have seen mixed views on whether to spray when they are dormant (July-Oct) or after they hatch in Oct.  Which is best?

Bayer Advanced Tree and Shrub Insecticide w/1.47% imidacloprid is readily availble for the public (as opposed to licensed pesticide sprayers) and I was going to use it in the soil.  However, the recommended dosage calculates to be one 32-oz ($15) bottle per 10-inch diameter tree.  That gets pretty expensive.  Also, it calls for professional soil injection.  Is there a way that the average homeowner can place it in the soil w/o profession help?  I was thinking of using a posthole digger; pull out a plug, pour into the hole, wait for percolation, replace the soil plug.  Any thoughts or recommendations?  Thanks for any assistance.

  Hope this gets to you. What I was wanting to talk to you about is the Tellico R. I went there Sun. to do a little snorkling. The water was very low, since we haven't had that much rain lately. What caught my attention was the amount of silt covering everything, as well as silt suspended in the water. In chest deep water I could hardly see the bottom. Everyone knows that the 4 wheeling in N C is really impacting the river.Question is, does the F.S. plan on halting or slowing down this activity. I'm sure that you guys have notice the change in the Tellico's Quality. If you know anything about this subject I would sure like to know.
  On another subject, does Short Cr. in the Ocoee district still have the brook trout that we shocked several yrs. ago. I never did get back down there to fish them. If they are still there I promise not to pass that info on to anyone. Brook trout streams are one thing that I don't like to advertise.

I am Rose Gomo, the only Daughter of late Mr and Mrs Edwin  Gomo. My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Bindura,the economic city of Zimbabwe before he was killed to death by his pollitical associates on one of their outing to make pollitical dialoug.

When my mother died on the 21st October 1984, my father took me special because i am motherless. Before the death of my father on 26th Mar 2000 in a private hospital here in Bindura. He secretly called me on his bedside and told me that he has a sum of  12.5,000.000 (Twelve Million, five hundred thousand dollars) left in a suspense account in a local Bank in Abidjan, the capital of cote d ivorie that he used my name as his only son for the next of kin in deposit of the fund.

He also explained to me that I should seek for a God fearing foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose, (such as real estate management). For quick reference to glance through how my father was brutally killed
please visit the website http://www.zimvigil.co.uk/rollofhonour.htm

Sir, we are honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways.
1) To provide a Bank account where this money would be transferred to.

2) To serve as the guardian of this since I am a girl of 19 years.
Moreover Sir, we are willing to offer you 10% of the sum as compensation for effort input after the successful transfer of this fund to your designate account overseas.
