Maxxam/Pacific Lumber is logging
This is a series of images of "Taylor Made" THP
Timber Harvest Plan 01-413 or "Taylor Made" is currently being cut by contractors hired by Maxxam/Pacific Lumber company. A blockade was erected by activists last month to stop the beginning of road building in this plan and was evicted later that day by a climber hired by the company. The areas threatened by the plan include pristine stands that have never been logged in or had roads built through them.
In the following four maps the dark grey aareas represent "late-seral" or old-growth stands. "Late seral" means that the forest exibits many of the same charicteristics of an old-growth forests but is not quite old enough. The units of the plan are defined by the dark lines with two dashes evenly spaced through the line.
