CFLRP and the Mediating Influence of Federal Contract Regulations on Benefit to Local Communities
Open to view video.
Open to view video. Are forest restoration investments benefiting local communities most in need? The CFLRP seeks to create jobs and improve rural economies through investments in restoration but the results have been mixed. Researchers investigated the effect of federal contracting regulations on two CFLRP projects in northwest Montana and northeast Washington. Presented by Chelsea McIver, University of Montana, Bureau of Business and Economic Research
Forest Restoration at the Landscape Scale: Addressing Challenges of Collective Action in Mixed-Ownership Lands
Open to view video.
Open to view video. Scientists and land managers have argued for landscape-scale forest management to restore and sustain critical ecosystem services and to reduce wildfire risk in fire-suppressed forests, an approach termed "all-lands management" (ALM). We focus on cases of ALM in the US West, barriers to implementation, and ways landowners overcome those barriers. Presented by Erin Kelly, Humboldt State University
Anticipating Social Acceptability in Forestry: A Q Method Approach for Structuring Stakeholder Perspectives
Open to view video.
Open to view video. I present a unique approach known as Q Methodology for understanding stakeholder perspectives around forestry issues using an example of stakeholder attitudes toward wood-based biofuels. This approach is an important tool for decision-makers interested in anticipating and managing the social acceptability of emerging forestry issues, proposed policies, and projects. Presented by Miku Lenentine, University of Washington
Updating Oregon’s Forest Practices Monitoring Strategy: Cultural Change and Lessons Learned
Open to view video.
Open to view video. The Oregon Department of Forestry’s adaptive management approach to forest practices policies requires monitoring BMP implementation and effectiveness. We use a monitoring strategy to prioritize efforts, capture institutional knowledge, and organize discussions with stakeholders and decision makers. We present our process for updating the strategy and lessons learned. Presented by W. Terry Frueh, Oregon Department of Forestry
