Minnesota Timber Harvesting GEIS : an assessment of the first 10 years.

This study, initiated 11 years after the release of the Generic Environmental Impact Statement findings and recommendations, serves to assess the accuracy of the original GEIS projections for statewide timber harvesting intensity and its associated impacts, as well as the level of implementation of the various mitigation strategies. The purpose is to assess the ability to predict future forest resource conditions and to describe the status of mitigations in the form of forest management practices relative to the GEIS recommendations
