This project is being driven entirely by money. The grant money stipulates that 70% of the biomass (quoted from the park manager) will be removed to receive the money. This is not "science". This is not "forestry management". This is a brutal logging operation, driven by economics. If this project succeeds, it will not make the forest healthier. It will not make the forest more resilient to forest fire. Such drastic thinning will dry out the forest, making it more susceptible to fire. This is not what we need. We need a management plan that is more environmentally sensitive. DMP is failing to provide the necessary leadership. Instead, they are opting for a quick way to save a dollar.
