Abstract
The Federal Forest Restoration (FFR) Program is a joint
effort among the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF),
federal forest managers, and public lands stakeholders to
increase the pace, scale, and quality of federal forest restoration
across Oregon. The program supports management
for forest resilience on federal lands as well as economic
opportunities for surrounding communities. This working
paper provides an update on FFR Program investments and
outcomes for the 2021-2023 biennium. Reports from the
previous biennium (2019-2021) can be found elsewhere.
Here we report: 1) FFR Program expenditures, 2) economic
activity from timber sales and the FFR grant investments,
3) on-the-ground accomplishments of the FFR Program,
and 4) stakeholders’ perspectives on the FFR Program’s
successes and challenges.
