Box 1628, Juneau, AK 99802 2600 JUL 10 1981 rMr. Milstead Zahn Executive Director Boards of Fisheries and Game Alaska Division of Fish and Game Subport Building .Juneau, AK 99801 Dear Mr. Zahn: We have received your March 4 letter containing Joint Resolution #80-80-JB adopted by the Boards of Fisheries and Game on December 7, 1980, regarding impacts of clearcut logging on fisheries and wildlife resources. The ten items listed in the Resolution are well stated and reflect the concerns of the Joint Boards on this issue. We have included the Joint Resolution in the draft Regional Plan, which is in the final stages of preparation before distributing to the public for review. Our response to the ten items listed in the resolution follow. Several of the items are almost identical to concerns expressed by the Department of Fish and Game in their November 1980 report to the Joint Boards regarding wildlife and forest practices in southeast Alaska. In these cases, our responses are identical to our reply to the Department. Item 1. The public be fully informed by the Department of Fish and Game and the Forest Service of the long-term known and potential impacts of clearcut logging on fish and wildlife habitat and subsequent population levels. Response: The Forest Service is highly supportive of any measure that will help provide full public disclosure of the resource management programs on the National Forest. We will continue to work with the Department of Fish and Game to provide this information to the public. Your recommendations on how we can improve this process would be most welcome. Item 2. The Tongass Land Management Plan be revised by the Forest Service to provide more protection for valuable fish and wildlife habitat and reflect recent research findings. Response: Passage of the Alaska National Interest
