Editor's Note:

Recently, Bernard Hubbard, President of the Society of American Foresters and Marc Vomocil, Past Chairman of the Oregon Society of American Foresters, wrote a very interesting letter to Oregon Senator, Ron Wyden, concerning the Senator's draft Oregon Forest Health and Old Growth Protection Act, released for comment last April.

SAF's letter to Senator Wyden proves - once again - that where legislative intent is concerned, the devil is always in the details. If you are interested in learning more about the hullabaloo surrounding the renewable energy standard in the Obama Administration's energy package, read this letter.
