Sustainable Forest Management on the Yakama Reservation

Washington 1.4 million acres established by the Treaty of June 9, 1855

Agriculture Total Area 1.4 million acres Range Forest Forest and Woodland 647,172 acres = 47 %

What is sustainable forestry? What is forest health? What are the characteristics of a healthy forest?

A healthy forest is a condition where insects, diseases, fire and weather events do not threaten forest management objectives now and in the future

A healthy forest maintains  a diversity of plants and animals  aesthetic appeal  resource sustainability and  is resilient to disturbances

 Cultural Resources  Fish  Forest Health  Range  Revenue and Employment  Water Quality  Wildlife What do we want to sustain?

An unhealthy forest is characterized by  high levels of insects and diseases  increased mortality and  reduced forest productivity

Changes in forest health have occurred as a result of  Fire Exclusion  Livestock Grazing  Selective Timber Harvesting

Increased stand densities and decreased tree vigor

Conversion in Timber Types

Extensive areas of the Yakama Forest are dominated by Douglas-fir and grand fir Very good for the budworm

205,584 acres

Western Spruce Budworm Defoliation

Short Term Strategy: Recover value of dead and dying trees

Long Term Strategy: Promote the development of a more resilient and sustainable forest

288,159 Acres
