nonindustrial timber management plans submitted to the department for
logging projects proposed to be conducted on nonfederal and private
land in the state. The department would be required to post any
comment letters on those plans from relevant state agencies or
departments no later than 7 days after receipt.
The bill would
also require the department, by January 1, 2011, to post past timber
harvest plans dating back to those approved in 2005 for all
regions
on the its Internet
Web site
