Abstract:
The U.S. Forest Service and the State of Oregon
continue to commit substantial effort and resources
to support restoration on the 11 national
forests in Oregon. Notable programs include
the Forest Service Eastside Restoration Strategy and
Oregon’s Federal Forest Restoration Program (FFRP).
These programs focus on the national forests east of
the Cascade Mountains, where the need is greatest to
actively restore forest landscapes and to contribute
to economic health of rural communities. . . . This working paper presents the results of monitoring
restoration measures on Oregon’s six eastside
federal forests: the Deschutes, Fremont-Winema,
Malheur, Ochoco, Umatilla, and Wallowa-Whitman
National Forests.
