On January 8, 2025, Associated Oregon Loggers issued a press release applauding the U.S. Forest Service's decision to withdraw the National Old Growth Amendment (NOGA) Draft Environmental Impact Statement.
This decision, which marks a victory for science-based forest management, has spurred significant media engagement.
AOL's release led to a January 10 interview on The Wake Up Call on KPNW radio in Eugene and ongoing collaboration with The New Era in Sweet Home for an Op-ed. Additionally, AOL is engaging with several digital media editors to amplify this important message.
