Chugach Forest Heserre
Th® Pbospeotob is indebted to Mr.
Langitle, Supervisor, Forest Peaerre,
Department of Agriculture, for the
following facts relative to the Ohngncfc
National Forest Reservo:
The Chugach National Forost was
created by President Roosevelt’s pro
clamation dated July 23,1907.
It includes all the territory bonnded
on tho east by Copper River from its
mouth to the summit of the Chugach
mountains thence along the divide of
these mountains to the portage between
Portage Bay and Turnagain Arm;
thence along the shores of the Kenai
Peninsula to Cape Puget, and includes
all the islands in and adjacent to
Prince William Sound, an approximat e
area of 4,9000,000 acres.
The purpose of the Government in
setting aside this area as a national
forest* is solely to retain the timber
under its control, thereby perpetuating
a permanent timber supply available at
all times for all people, to the exclusion
of those who would attempt to acquire
and hold the timber for speculative
purposes.
There is a general erroneous impres
sion that the creation of a national for
est prevents the use of the laud or
forest products within it, when the re
verse is the case. Laws aod regula
tions provide for the use of the lands:
and all dead and mature green timber
is for sale at a reasonable stum page
price, which is based on tbe ecouomie
conditions of the region at the time of
purchase. Mine owners within the
forest may use without charge all tim
ber within the bounds of their claims,
timber taken from outside these liues
^ are subject to the following charges :
Saw timber, all kinds, 50 cents per M.
Piling of all kinds x/z cent per linear
foot. Cordwood all kinds, twenty five
cents per cord. All 9turapage is pay
able in advance, and cutting without
permit, constitutes a trespass.
Twenty-five cords of firewood and
20,000 feet, board measure, of saw logs,
may be cut each year by any citizen
for personal use. Homesteads and
other valid claims within the forest in
itiated previous to the proclamation
will not be affected.
A forest officer will be stationed at
Valdez who will furnish any desiied
information, and to him all applications
for the purchase of timber should be
made.
