The Oregon Department of State Lands is considering sale of the Elliott State Forest near Coos Bay.  The state has received a single offer to buy the 82,000 acre tract, from a consortium of Lone Rock Timber and the Cow Creek tribe.  This meeting provides an opportunity to speak in favor of keeping this vital habitat area in the public domain.  For more information, see the related article in Land Use News.
