Good Idea: protect old growth forest

There’s a kind of forest in western Oregon that you feel before you understand. The canopy closes overhead and the light changes. The air goes cool and wet and still.

On February 19th, the BLM published a Notice of Intent to gut the management plans governing nearly 2.5 million acres of these forests across 18 counties.

The scoping comment period closes March 23, 2026. This is your window. Scoping comments shape the alternatives the BLM is required to analyze in its Environmental Impact Statement.
