Forest Bridges’ Roseburg Meeting #1: Active Conservation on the O&C Lands

September 14, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm PDT

Forest Bridges: The O&C Habitat Project, Inc. will host the first in a series of open public meetings on September 14, 2023, from 7:00 – 8:30 pm at the Roseburg Public Library, 1409 NE Diamond Lake Blvd, Roseburg, OR 97470, to share and obtain feedback on its collaboratively developed Active Conservation management principles and proposals for the O&C Lands of western Oregon.

Based in Roseburg, Forest Bridges (forest bridges.org) is a grassroots nonprofit organization that formed in 2015 to bring consensus and trust among people of different perspectives and interests — conservation and environmentalism, forest industry, recreation, wildlife, Tribal, governmental, and community — specifically on the management of the 2.9 million acres of O&C Lands of western Oregon. These lands include 2.1 million acres of BLM O&C lands, 75,000 acres of Coos Bay Wagon Road lands, 239,000 acres of Public Domain lands, and nearly 500,000 acres of Controverted Lands managed by the US Forest Service.

At the September 14 meeting, Forest Bridges will provide an introduction to its collaboratively developed Principles of Agreement and proposals (example here) and allow attendees to ask questions and comment. Meetings on October 18 and December 7, 2023, will explore specific topics of public interest or concern raised during the initial meeting, providing greater opportunities for facilitated discussion. The Forest Bridges Board will consider public feedback as it continues to refine its living principles and proposals.

Refreshments will be served.
