I 'heard' an interesting little tidbit.....but cannot verify. It would be interesting to find out. I heard that Ron Wyden had 'negotiated' the language for Oregon in the GOP sponsored bill that applies the Daschle exemption to all forests, nation-wide. The problem is........the deal negotiated by Wyden was for ONLY EAST SIDE FORESTS to be included in the forest thinning exemption.
Now.......gee.......DUH..........where are the majority of fires in Oregon?????
If true.....this is a total sell-out of the intent of the Daschle exemption!
