Beaverhead-Deerlodge Timber Partnership: Timber Companies & Conservationists find Common Ground
Friday, November 16, 2007
11:30a.m. – 1:00p.m.
At our new venue: DOUBLETREE EDGEWATER, 100 MADISON
In 2006, the Beaverhead-Deerlodge Partnership, a coalition of five timber companies and three conservation organizations, issued a strategy that called for a larger and steadier supply of timber from the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, more emphasis on forest and stream restoration and the designation of over 500,000 acres of new wilderness in southwest Montana. Tom France, Director of the National Wildlife Federation's Northern Rockies Office and Bob Boschee, General Manager for Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation, will provide an update on this historic alliance of interests, the Partnership Strategy and new plans for federal legislation to implement the Partnership's recommendations.
