Election Day has come and gone. George W. Bush will be in the White House for another four years, and the logging, mining and oil industries will continue to set the agenda for our national forests and waters. In the U.S. House and Senate, anti-environmental politicians will continue to control key committees. Now, more than ever, Oregon’s environment needs defenders. Here at the Oregon Natural Resources Council, we have never run away from a fight. And we don’t intend to start now. It isn’t yet clear what the next four years will bring, but we can be sure that ONRC and hard-working conservationists like you will be needed. We will continue to be an aggressive voice for the wild lands, wildlife and waters of Oregon, and for the people who treasure them. Over the next four years we will: Work to safeguard nearly five million acres of Oregon’s wild lands as federally protected Wilderness, including 178,000 acres on Mount Hood and in the Columbia Gorge. Stop the logging of old growth in Oregon, preserving our remaining wild forests and clean drinking water as a legacy for future generations. Defend threatened and endangered fish and wildlife, and educate the public about the value of a healthy environment. We will not hesitate to go to court to challenge decisions that would harm Oregon’s natural heritage and we will steadfastly protect our shared values in Congress. Fight to bring the gray wolf back home to Oregon, returning this symbol of wilderness to wild lands like the Eagle Caps, the Blue Mountains and the Siskiyous. With an anti-environmental majority in Congress supporting the most antienvironmental president in U.S. history, ONRC will not waver. With your help, we will expand our alliances with hunters, anglers and people of faith to fight for the Oregon we love. Over the last four years, whenever Oregon’s wild places and wildlife have been threatened, ONRC activists and members have responded. You have done the heavy lifting that has protected both our freedom and our environment writing letters, making phone calls, testifying at public hearings and working in your communities to educate your fellow Oregonians. You are true heroes, and I know that when Oregon's wild lands need you, you will be there with us. For the wild,

Your Membership Made a Difference in 2004!
Here’s what you helped ONRC accomplish for Oregon’s wild lands, wildlife and waters Lewis and Clark Mount Hood Wilderness Solid organizing efforts led to introduction of legislation by Senator Wyden to protect over 177,000 wild acres in the Mount Hood National Forest. It would designate 48 miles of Wild and Scenic rivers, extend protections to Cooper Spur, Roaring River and the Columbia River Gorge and add to the Mount Hood, Badger Creek and Salmon Huckleberry wilderness areas. Mount Hood Summit II Helped turn out 300 wilderness supporters to testify at a June forum at Timberline Lodge hosted by Congressmen Blumenauer and Walden. Led Oregon Wild Campaign Efforts Coordinated hikes for 500 people to proposed wilderness areas during Wilderness Week. Helped force federal agency consideration of new wilderness for Malheur, Umatilla and Wallowa-Whitman National Forests. Published Wilderness Book Published gorgeous, humorous 238 page book written by longtime forest advocate Andy Kerr entitled Oregon Wild: Endangered Forest Wilderness. (See back cover for details.) Defended Roadless Rule Worked closely with Oregon’s premier outdoor recreation businesses to defend 58.5 million acres of wildlands nationally (including two million acres in Oregon). Helped generate nearly 1.5 million public comments, garnered written support from 72 scientists and locally elected officials and published the report: “Roadless Areas of Oregon: What We’ve Lost and What We Stand To Lose.”

between Suttle Lake and Sisters. Participated in Deschutes Provincial Advisory Committee and the Central Oregon Partnership for Wildfire Risk Reduction.
Exposed Bush Tactics Exposed the Bush administration’s use of “sue and settle” backroom deals with the timber industry that circumvent normal democratic processes to establish forest policy. Defended Northwest Forest Plan Halted logging on 600 acres of oldgrowth in Mount Hood and Willamette National Forests. With conservation partners, scored legal victories to protect old-growth reserves designated in the Plan. Co-sponsored rally in Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse Square. Defended Kalmiopsis Halted so-called “emergency” logging of 2,829 acres of old-growth reserves and key watersheds. Provided important technical analysis of the landscape. Governor Kulongoski stepped up to protect inventoried roadless areas. Protected Legacy Forests Stopped old-growth and roadless logging operations near Mount Jefferson Wilderness (200 acres), Wild and Scenic McKenzie River (1,100 acres), Middle Santiam (4,300 acres), Siskiyou Crest (150 acres), Fall Creek (4,000 acres), Mount Hood National Forest (1,500 acres) and Fremont-Winema National Forests (600 acres). Supported Sensible Management Encouraged old-growth protection and ecologically-based thinning of Siuslaw plantations and forests

Kept Public Lands in Public Hands Led efforts to stop transfer/privatization of 65,000 acres of the Siuslaw National Forest and 695,000 acres of the Fremont-Winema National Forests including roadless and oldgrowth forests. Klamath Refuges Report Helped write and distribute “Refuges in Peril - Fish, Wildlife and the Klamath Water Crisis.” Defended Klamath Wildlife Forced managers to limit logging on the Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge and halt pesticide applications near bald eagle nests. Defended the ESA Defended the Endangered Species Act in the Klamath Basin, in Oregon and throughout the country. Defended Imperiled Species Supported litigation and media to protect critical habitat and species including butterflies (Taylor’s checkerspot, Mardon skipper), streaked horn lark, bald eagle, Northern spotted owl, Pacific fisher, lynx, wolves, green sturgeon, Pacific coast lamprey, wild salmon, Klamath coho and coastal cutthroat trout. Celebrated 30th Anniversary Stellar volunteers coordinated four parties to celebrate three decades of environmental leadership. The Wilderness Society presented ONRC with their Environmental Heroes Award.

Forest Protection- Year In Review
Wilderness & Old-Growth Campaigns Advance in ‘04 Jeremy Hall

t’s a great year when the U.S. Senate holds a hearing on legislation to expand wilderness in Oregon and when a bill is introduced in the House that would safeguard much of Oregon’s remaining old-growth forests. Getting such pro-environment legislation introduced in the current political climate is a major victory. But the fight to protect Oregon’s last wild lands is far from over. In 2004, the logging industry launched a well-funded campaign to convince the public that the best way to stop forest fires is to clearcut our forests. And the Bush administration has twisted science and ignored public opinion to promote a radical agenda on forests, fish and wildlife. Here are some highlights of ONRC’s 2004 forest protection efforts: Roadless Areas at Risk Roadless areas within our national forests are among the wildest landscapes we have left, providing critical habitat for fish and wildlife, outstanding recreational opportunities, and clean drinking water for our communities. On July 12, the Bush administration effectively repealed the

Roadless Area Conservation Rule, opening up over 58 million acres of roadless forests across America to logging, mining, drilling and other destructive activities. ONRC is fighting this scheme, and in 2004 we conducted a major public education campaign that reached out to hunters, anglers and the general public.
the Mayor of Sandy, Linda Malone, in testifying before the Senate in support of the bill. Congress adjourned without acting on it, but we have laid a solid foundation for action and improvements to the bill next year.
We also scored a major victory by enlisting the support of large Oregon employers in our campaign to protect our remaining roadless areas, including Nike, Adidas and Columbia Sportswear. So far, ONRC and our allies nationwide have submitted nearly 1.5 million public comments opposing the Bush proposal. Protecting Mount Hood Wild Lands ONRC and over 500 wilderness volunteers have worked hard to identify and map our remaining wild lands and to build support for their permanent protection. This year we were rewarded with the introduction of Senator Wyden’s “Lewis and Clark Mount Hood Wilderness Act,” which would protect an additional 178,000 acres on Mount Hood and in the Columbia Gorge as Wilderness and designate 48 miles of Wild and Scenic rivers. In September, ONRC was joined by

Defending Old-Growth Forests ONRC’s campaign to protect Oregon’s last remaining old-growth forests advanced this year when Rep. Peter DeFazio introduced legislation that would protect trees over 120 years old on federal lands in western Oregon, while simultaneously directing federal agencies to focus on thinning plantations to restore forest diversity, create jobs and produce wood products. The bill is a major step in the right direction, though it does need improvements to protect old-growth dependent fish, wildlife and plants. We hope that it will serve as the starting point for common sense legislation next year. “Healthy Forests” or Clearcuts? Protecting people, homes and communities from forest fires is important. To that end, ONRC contacted every county in Oregon to outline common sense measures that can protect homes and businesses from fire. Unfortunately, the logging industry

‘05 Requires Defense of Democracy and the Environment ONRC will remain the steadfast leader in protecting the Oregon you love and Bush administration have seized on public concern over fires to promote logging old-growth trees in backcountry areas miles from the nearest town. Rather than sing the praises of clear cuts, they argue that we face a “forest health” emergency that can only be solved by increased logging. Meanwhile they work to eliminate requirements for environmental review and public comment. In 2004, ONRC fought back with radio ads and field tours with reporters but there is still much work to be done. Looking Ahead to 2005 Though we hoped for a return to responsible management based on
ging industry will push to make it easier to clearcut heritage forests in the name of fire protection. We expect the Bush administration to seek radical changes in the courts.

Klamath Basin Campaign - Year In Review
The good news? There is strong bipartisan support for new wilderness and old-growth protection legislation in Oregon. And, in the past year, progressive Oregonians have organized like never before. ONRC has forged new alliances and made new friends. Together, we will hold Oregon's congressional delegation strong. A new clarion call to defend our freedom and environment rings forth. With your help, ONRC will answer!

t has been four years since the water woes of the Klamath Basin first made headlines across the nation, but little progress has been made in solving the basic problem facing the region: that too much water has been promised to too many different interests. The Bush administration, along with Oregon’s Sen. Gordon Smith and Rep. Greg Walden, have seemed more interested in demonizing the Endangered Species Act than in actually solving the conflict over water. In 2004, ONRC continued our campaign to restore balance to the Klamath Basin and to block the efforts of the Bush administration and antienvironmental members of Congress.

We took action on Klamath forest management, blocking a scheme to log forests in the Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge. ONRC’s advocacy also significantly reduced application of a potent pesticide on the refuge. Our public education efforts also scored major successes. In the spring, we worked with several other conservation groups to produce a report on the plight

of Klamath wildlife. We also partnered with commercial fishermen and the Yurok Tribe to publicize the California Dept. of Fish and Game’s final report on the 2002 Klamath River fish kill which doubled previous estimates of salmon fatalities to as many as 80,000. Finally, in August ONRC organized a tour of the Klamath Basin for Congressman Earl Blumenauer, along with meetings with commercial fishermen, Native American’s, farm families and hunters. The Congressman was able to witness the environmental problems facing the region firsthand, and to discuss ideas for solving them. With this momentum, we look forward to making more progress in 2005.
