    🎉 HUGE WIN FOR OLD-GROWTH AND MARBLED MURRELETS! 🎉 For Immediate Release: Court Halts Logging of Elliott State Forest Tract Sold to Private Timber Company.Today, a U.S. District Court judge issued a ruling (see link in bio) that permanently prevents Scott Timber from clearcutting old-growth forest previously part of the Elliott State Forest. The court found that the proposed logging of the “Benson Ridge” (pictured, photo by Francis Eatherington) parcel by Roseburg Forest Products would harm and harass threatened marbled murrelets, violating the federal Endangered Species Act. In August 2016, we and our partners @centerforbiodiv and @portlandaudubon filed suit seeking to block Scott Timber from clearcutting 49 acres of the 355-acre parcel of land because of the impacts to threatened marbled murrelets. The sea birds, which make their nests in high canopy old growth were documented in the stand proposed for clearcutting more than 200 times by both @coastrangeforestwatch, and the logging company’s own contractors. 📍The Elliott State Research Forests is located in the traditional homelands of the Hanis Coos, Miluk Coos, and Quiich peoples.
