Multi-species plan for forest habitat

Article Abstract:

The habitat conservation plan (HCP) of the timber company Murray Pacific is the first of its kind to cover different species for a forested landscape. Under the initiative, the company is allowed to take listed species incidental to the undertaking of legal timber harvest procedures for the next 100 years. The permit can be revised if a new specie becomes listed in the future. Through this multi-species HCP, Murray Pacific can go about its business while contributing to the protection of certain species without violating the Endangered Species Act.

Good news for owls and jobs

Article Abstract:

The Weyerhaeuser Co. has agreed to implement a habitat conservation plan (HCP) aimed at protecting the endangered northern spotted owl on its Oregon land. The beauty of this particular HCP is that it protects not only the threatened owl but also jobs. The HCP provides dispersal habitat on the company's properties that enables the owls to move freely within the land. Moreover, it improves the chances of survival of young bird by providing foraging and protection from predators.
