The South East Forest Alliance has identified 15 of the most important
largely forested areas which are still unprotected in the South Coast Forests
of NSW.
The South East Forest Alliance is proposing these areas for protection
as a national park, to form the basis of a forest reserve system.
These 15 areas are the 'Community Reserve Proposals' of the South East Forest
Alliance for the South Coast forests, and are the 'flag ships' of the forest
protection campaign.
They are all areas with tremendous environmental values and community
concern, and have been identified as essential for an adequate and viable
reserve system design for the region.
Southern
Forest Catchment Values and Threats is a report that has just been produced
for the NSW Forest Alliance. It outlines among other things how
intensification of logging practices will have detrimental effects on these
catchments and the communities and industries that depend on their long term
sustainable use.
