Coos Bay Times Defends Smith River Timber Policy
Letter from Oregon Republican officials rebutts Coos Bay Times criticisms of lifting the Smith River timber marketing area. It states the action was an emergency salvage rule by Interior Secretary Douglas McKay and not a broad giveaway of resources. The note confirms hearings are to assess marketing area status and emphasizes no link to Southwestern Oregon marketing.
