State officials released a statement, saying that the public is welcome to attend virtually.
The Private Forest Accord Mitigation Fund was established in the 2022 Legislative Session as an outcome of the landmark agreement between timber and conservation groups to recommend changes to the Forest Practices Act.
The Private Forest Accord allows for forest practices to proceed with increased protections for natural resources, including the development of a habitat conservation plan for aquatic species.
The Private Forest Accord Mitigation Fund’s purpose is to fund projects that help aquatic species and habitats covered by the HCP, and is to be administered by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.
