As Siuslaw Forest Supervisor during the Northwest Forest Plan’s early years, Jim led the shift away from old-growth clearcutting toward restoration. Later, as Deputy Chief, he played a critical role in establishing the Roadless Area Conservation Rule, protecting nearly 60M acres of public lands.

As we seek solutions to address biodiversity loss and the climate crisis, restoring sea otters to Oregon’s nearshore ecosystem is vital for supporting a healthy and resilient ocean environment.

Sea otters are a crucial keystone species. By feeding on sea urchins, they help maintain healthy, thriving kelp forests. Without sea otters in the nearshore waters, kelp forests that are essential for providing food, habitat, and shelter for countless species have deteriorated.

As we look to a future where climate change is putting native plants and wildlife at risk, water may be more scarce, and threats of logging in older forests are more pervasive, we’ll need more places like Crabtree Valley.
