Forest Managers from Government of Indonesia Visit Oregon
On July 26, high level officials from the Government of Indonesia concluded a one-week, hands-on tour to learn how U.S. Forest Service specialists participate in collaboratives with partners to manage forests for “the greatest good.” This trip directly supports our agency’s strategic goal of applying knowledge globally.
Innovative river restoration continues within the Willamette National Forest
Imagine water gushing out of a fire hose. Now imagine that speed of flow at Coal Creek. The speed of flow reduced the stream’s quality, diversity and ability to provide habitat for fish and other wildlife. To alleviate the problem, hydrologists and fisheries technicians from the Middle Fork Ranger District (MFRD) on the Willamette National Forest teamed up with the Middle Fork Willamette Watershed Council (MFWWC) to restore 25 acres of floodplain habitat on Coal Creek in the Upper Middle Fork Willamette Watershed which is about 24 miles south of Oakridge, OR.
