SUBJECT: Replacement Timber -- Mystery Solved
The mystery has been solved--the anonymous package
labelled "Alternative Timber
" that appeared late Friday came
from CEQ and was prepared by USDA. This is the material that
Greg Frazier had promised long ago. He finally gave it to Katie
yesterday afternoon, and her office dropped it off.
I'd like our OMB staff to go over it Monday morning. I'd
especially like an assessment of the evaluation they've come up
with regarding how much timber will need to be replaced and how
much (or little) is available (note that the paper also says that
because the original sales included larger and more valuable
trees, "it could take nearly twice as much volume from the 1996
sales to equal the same value").
From my quick read thru, I see three problems with the
paper:
First, there's no prioritization for the field. It
appears that we now have an assessment that the "top priority"
sales that need to be replaced are sales that total 271 mbf!
That could be correct that we would ideally be able to replace
that much, but I had expected some further prioritization to
indicate that, say, some group of sales totalling 100 mbf was
extremely damaging (trees 500 to 1,000 years old, etc), and so
on. The paper does not give any direction to the field in terms
of where to go first, or which sales to work on if they can't
come up with enough replacement timber to do them all.
As for their overall strategy, it was my understanding
that we were not going to explicitly agree to "consider minor
deviations from forest plan standards and guidelines", but that
we would only do that on a case by case basis, if all other
options failed and the field negotiators appealed to HQ/DC.
Finally, the impression that comes across is that there
is not much negotiation going on right now. I hope that's not
true. They are supposed to be going full speed ahead with
negotiations to replace the most problematic sales. Please let
me know what is actually happening.

SUBJECT: RE: Replacement Timber - - Mystery Solved
A few thoughts to throw in the pot:
o
In regards to prioritizing sales for replacement, I think
the Forest Service has done that for the k (1) sales. For the k (3)
sales, of course, we have legally obligated to supply replacement
timber for all of the sales. So if we win the "known to be
nesting" argument, that means at least 225 mbf of replacement
timber or likely much more, according to the FS. Whether,
however, the statutory criteria of like kind and value, actually
requires "nearly twice as much" is something I think OMB needs to
scrutinize
o
Justice should review this draft also (do we know if they
have it?), and will no doubt have additional thoughts, but I am
troubled by the wording in the next to the last line on p. 1 that
says, "The Administration has taken the position in court that the
alternative volume
I think the first part of that
statement should be dropped and it should simply read,
"Alternative volume provided for these sales must comply with all
laws". This is supposed to be clear guidance for the field, not a
discussion of litigation positions.
o
I recommend that the first full paragraph on p. 2,
"However, if the 9th Circuit rules
" be struck. It is full
of assumptions that are not necessarily true and are not necessary
for the purposes of this guidance. For example, it assumes that
if lose in the 9th Circuit, we wouldn't seek a rehearing, wouldn't
seek cert w/the Supremes, and wouldn't cancel. It also assumes
that none of the purchasers are wiling to follow env. law.
O
Again, I question the "double the number" assumption on top
of p. 3.
o
I concur with TJ's concern about the "minor deviation"
language. I liked the "call home" language that BLM used for
their guidance and that USDA had for the more limited guidance.

alternative timber memo
A few more thoughts:
1. On the need to prioritize: I agree with TJ that there should be more
guidance for the field. It's true that if we win on k3, we're legally obligated
to provide replacement timber for the whole 225 mbf. But we might lose on k3
and if we do, we will need to know which of these sales are the worst, which the
next worst, and so on. TJ's right that the memo doesn't prioritize in this way,
nor does it suggest how the field folks should prioritize for themselves.
2. The memo suggests that we have no problem with any of the sales we already
have been forced to release. Is that true? Or are there some previously
released sales that we currently are or ought to be - - negotiating about?
And if so, how do these sales fit within the (nonexistent) list of priorities.
3. The statement about needing twice as much alternative timber has to be
deleted. Someday we may be in litigation with purchasers over whether timber
we've given them is of like kind and value, and in that context, this statement
will come back to haunt us.
4. To expand on the concerns raised by Dinah in her second and third bullitts,
can't we cut back on a lot of this memo's statement of the problem? I'd be more
comfortable if this memo didn't spend so much time characterizing our legal
obligations.
5. I'm of mixed mind as to whether we should say so directly that we will
exercise our right to cancel contracts if negotiations are unsuccessful. It
might be helpful, from an internal point of view, to put this position on
record. More, I doubt it will come as a surprise to the timber industry that
we've been thinking about this option. Finally, we will need to state this
position, at some point and in some context, if we want to use it as leverage.
But I worry that the industry will attempt to use this memo's flat statement
against us -- perhaps as a basis for immediately seeking a declaratory judgment
regarding our contractual rights, or perhaps as evidence that the cancellations
result from broadscale policy concerns, rather than from good faith case-by-case
evaluation of the results of contractual performance. I think I would at least
like to play with the language to alleviate my concerns on these matters.
6. I don't have the letter to Craig that TJ wrote an e-mail about. Can someone
send me a copy?

I didn't say anything on the call home approach, but I do agree with Dinah (and
now Martha) on that.
And I think Martha raises a really good question about who and what this memo is
for. As it's written, it doesn't seem to DO much of anything. I know I'd have
a better sense of what should be in it (e.g., discussion of priorities or of
contract cancellation) if I knew what it was supposed to accomplish.

comments on this subject.
I agree with Dinah and someone (and disagree with Elena, I think)

MEMORANDUM FOR
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Alternative Timber for National Forest Timber Sales Subject to Public Law (P.L.)
104-19, Section 2001 (k)
The Forest Service (FS) is currently faced with providing replacement timber for a number of section 2001 (k)
timber sales that pose environmental risks. This issue will escalate when the Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals rules on Judge Hogan's interpretation of the "known to be nesting" phrase in P.L. 104-19, which will
occur-probably in June.
This memorandum describes the problem and describes the Forest Service strategy for dealing with it.
THE PROBLEM:
Section 2001 (k) of P.L. 104-19 addresses the remaining unawarded or suspended Pacific Northwest timber sales
subject to section 318 of the Fiscal Year 1990 Appropriations Act. The Congress gave the Forest Service and
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) 45 days from the date of enactment to release the sales and permit them to
be completed by purchasers in fiscal years 1995 and 1996. Alternatively, in the event there were threatened or
endangered bird species known to be nesting in the sales, the agencies were to provide an equal volume of
alternative timber of like kind and value.
Since enactment of the timber rider, court rulings have broadened the geographic scope of the rider to include
sales in the eastern Cascade regions of Oregon and Washington, bringing the total number of sales covered to 104
totalling 435 million board feet. Of this total, the FS and BLM has released, due to court orders, approximately 44
sales totaling 165 million board feet to the purchasers or high bidders where they do not include nesting
threatened or endangered birds and where they are not enjoined by other courts. The agencies have asked
purchasers to modify voluntarily their sales to improve them environmentally. In addition, for the worst
environmentally damaging sales, the agency has offered the purchasers alternative volume to harvest in lieu of the
original sales. Of the 44 sales, approximately 17 have been or are being harvested.
The bulk of the problem remains with the remaining 270 million board feet, of which 225 is being litigated in the
9th Circuit Court of Appeals. If the 9th Circuit rules in the Administration's favor, that most of these sales do
have threatened or endangered bird species "known to be nesting" in them, then the FS and BLM will work to
provide alternative timber, as the rider requires in subsection (k)(3). The Administration has taken the position in
court that the alternative volume provided for these sales must comply with all laws. Also, the rider does not
DRAFT
DRAFT
state a deadline by which the FS and BLM must offer this alternative volume. Therefore, the sales which may fall
into the category of having birds "known to be nesting" can be handled under the normal sale preparation process.
However, if the 9th Circuit rules that most of the 53 sales (225 mmbf) do not have threatened or endangered bird
species "known to be nesting" in them, then they can be harvested by the purchasers immediately. Since the rider
essentially exempts these sales from environmental and all laws through September 30, 1996, the purchasers will,
no doubt, want to harvest them before this deadline.
The challenge for the Forest Service will be to identify those sales that are the most environmentally damaging
and implement a plan of action for improving, replacing, or buying them out. As we have already experienced with
other released 318 sales, the public will demand that the Administration take action to avoid the harvesting of
these sales. Therefore, we must be prepared with a plan of action.
THE STRATEGY:
The FS strategy for dealing with this problem is 1) identifying priority sales, 2) modification and replacement of
problematic sales, and 3) if modification or replacement is not possible, cancellation of problematic sales.
The Forest Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and National Marine Fisheries Service are jointly working to identify
and prioritize the need for alternative timber on each section 2001 (k) timber sale cutting unit. The interagency
team has tentatively identified 315 mmbf as high priority for replacement, 10 mmbf as medium priority, and 53
mmbf as low priority (57 mmbf of additional timber has either been harvested or will not be awarded for various
reasons.) Of the 315 mmbf, 51 mmbf presently meets Judge Hogan's interpretation of "known to be nesting,"
which we are now appealing before the 9th Circuit.
With this list, the agencies will then prioritize field efforts to find and offer alternative timber on a sale-by-sale
basis. The interagency Level 1, on-the-ground, teams will be key to this process. Under the supervision of the
regional interagency team, the Level 1 teams will be responsible to explore all options to maximize the amount of
alternative timber of like kind and value that meets environmental standards. Where original sales are to be
harvested, the teams would attempt to gain purchaser approval to mutually modify the contracts and mitigate
potential environmental impacts.
First priority for substitute volume will be that it complies fully with the standards and guidelines under the
President's forest plan. In most instances, to achieve this objective, the Forest Service will have to use volume
that will be offered under the President's Forest Plan. However, the supply of this timber is limited. Of the 800
mmbf in this year's Pacific Northwest Forest Plan program, 225 mmbf has not yet been offered for sale in region
DRAFT
DRAFT
6. However, most of these sales, plus the sales from eastern Oregon and Washington, will not be fully prepared
until August or September. In addition, because the original timber sales include larger and more valuable trees
than the sales in the fiscal year 1996 program, it could take nearly twice as much volume from the 1996 sales to
equal the same value in the original sales.
We will maximize the availability of alternative volume by -- 1) directing the FS to expedite the preparation of
volume that would have been offered under the Plan in August through October and 2) suspending, as necessary,
volume to be offered under the President's Forest Plan in May and June.
However, taking these actions as noted above, only a limited volume would be available. Therefore, in order to
achieve the objective of mitigating environmental impacts in a manner that complies with the law and avoids
environmental damage, the Level 1 teams will be allowed to consider minor deviations from forest plan standards
and guidelines as long as they meet the following criteria: (1) the risk to the environment of harvesting the
alternative timber is reduced over harvesting the original timber sale; (2) the harvest of the alternative timber
would not violate any federal environmental protection statutes; and (3) alternative volume from the 1996 or 1997
forest plan timber sale program that is in full compliance with standards and guidelines is either not available or is
unacceptable to the timber purchaser.
Finally, if these steps are unsuccessful, the FS will exercise its right to cancel contracts.
