Detailed explanation-1: -Each year, millions of new seedlings are planted in Oregon to replace harvested trees. Harvest areas that require reforestation must be replanted within two years. Within six years, those seedlings must be free-to-grow and “well-distributed” (see page 80).
Detailed explanation-2: -Oregon rules limit clearcuts to 120 acres, and adjacent areas in the same ownership cannot be clearcut until new trees on the original harvest site are at least four feet tall or are four years-old and the stand is free-to-grow.
Detailed explanation-3: -1941: Oregon adopted the Oregon Forest Conservation Act to address reforestation and fire protection. 1971: Oregon became the first state to implement a comprehensive set of laws governing forest practices, with the Oregon Forest Practices Act (OFPA).
