Description

Pacific Lumber Company submitted two timber harvesting plans covering old-growth forest in Humboldt County to the Department of Forestry (department). In response to a request by the Department of Fish and Game (Fish and Game), the department asked Pacific Lumber Company to provide information on old-growth-dependent wildlife species within the plan areas. Pacific Lumber Company refused to provide the requested information on the ground that it was not specified in the rules promulgated by the Board of Forestry (board). (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 895 et seq. [hereafter, sometimes, rules or forest practice rules].) The department then denied the plans on the ground that they were incomplete. Pacific Lumber Company appealed the department's denial to the board. The board approved the plans, ultimately finding that "there will not be any significant adverse effect on old-growth-dependent wildlife species or habitat from the harvesting that will occur under these two plans."
