Successful and Remarkable is how I would categorize my first full 

year as Siuslaw National Forest Supervisor. Highlights of 2010 

include: 

— $8.5 million towards ecosystem restoration, roads 

improvements and recreation facilities improvements.

• The Forest partnered with the Northwest Youth Corps to handpull European beachgrass on 

the Oregon Dunes to improve 

habitat for Snowy Plover.

• Cape Perpetua Visitor Center 

got new siding; campgrounds, 

OHV staging areas and beach 

parking lots were re-paved; 

sewer and water systems 

replaced or repaired; and new 

fully accessible toilet buildings installed in many campgrounds.

— Three thriving community stewardship groups 

contribute to managing resources holistically through an entire basin. Important components include retained receipts for restoration 

projects and use of Wyden Authority on private lands. 

— Field Rangers (part of a 

Forest Service Valuing Place 

pilot program at special places 

in Washington and Oregon) at 

Oregon Dunes Day Use site, 

saw over 10,000 visitor contacts 

this summer sharing a wealth of 

information on geology, wildlife, 

or recreation opportunities. 

As you can see, Restoration, Recreation and Partnerships continue 

to define the Siuslaw National Forest. I invite you to visit and see 

first hand the work we accomplish on your public lands. For more
