White Pine Blister Rust Threatens Western Forests
Verification by the National Lumber Manufacturers Association and the Forest Service warns that white pine blister rust endangers western white pine forests from British Columbia to California. With timber valued at about 228 million dollars on the stump, widespread infection could imperil reforestation and the dependent lumber industries across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and California. A Portland conference on November 22 to 23, with timber owners and officials, will address defenses against the invasion from Canada and protect vast western white pine stands.
