Abstract
The public trust finds specific elaboration through a set of fiduciary standards that form a paradigm of sustainable management on behalf of the public. These time-tested standards define proper management of all ecological bounty, including forest, and provide measures of fiduciary performance against which the citizen beneficiaries may judge their political leaders and hold them accountable. This Article applies the public trust principle to Oregon forests.
