A Message

FROM THE FOREST

As I enter my fourth year of leading the Siuslaw

National Forest, the power of partnerships becomesmore and more apparent to me. Whether it is moneywe leverage to get work done on the ground, or withpeople who offer their valuable skills and time to helpus, we could not manage without them.

Partners helped us win not one, but three Chief of the

Forest Service's top honors this year. Breaking

Gridlock—by building a community of trust;

Stewardship—watershed protection and conservation,and Rise to the Future—watershed restoration and fish

program.

Partners got us to Australia, where we were one of

five river restoration nominations for the Brisbane

RiverPrize award. Competing internationally was

thrilling and quite an honor.

What else was outstanding? We not only met our

timber target but exceeded it through thinning sales. Asuccessful alcohol ban in off-highway vehicle ridingareas created a family-friendly recreation opportunityonce again. Thinking outside the box provided goodsfor services through our stewardship pilot project.

Much of the work we accomplished helped our local

economy and/or helps us improve our visitors'recreation experience. Add to all of this, the fact thatwe are making a difference on the landscape byimproving habitat for important plant and wildlifespecies. My Chief always says "do not concentrate onwhat we take off of the land...concentrate on what weleave behind." Well, the Siuslaw employees and partnerscan be very proud. Our actions directly result in cleanwater, healthy ecosystems, and sustainable goods andservices.

Stay tuned! The Siuslaw and its partners will continueto amaze you. I know they do me.GLORIA BROWNForest Supervisor
