Flat Country is off the chopping block
The Flat Country logging sale in the Willamette National Forest, which would have logged over 2,000 acres of mature and old-growth forests, has been withdrawn.

The Flat Country logging sale in the Willamette National Forest, which would have logged over 2,000 acres of mature and old-growth trees, was recently withdrawn by the Forest Service. This is a victory for our forests, one that would not have been possible without President Biden’s Earth Day Executive Order directing agencies to protect mature and old-growth trees and forests.
The fight to protect important forestlands like Flat Country isn’t over. The Forest Service plans to revise the sale and will roll out a new version in the spring. Their new plan will almost certainly be an improvement on the old proposal, but whether they will continue to pursue logging in mature and old-growth forests remains to be seen.
