Wilderness Hearings Testimony Submitted By: Nez Perce Tribe of Idaho (8/17/83), Lewiston Idaho Item Info

This testimony by representatives of the Nez Perce tribe speaks to the importance of continued governmental and local support of the Wilderness Act and a denial that there is substance to claims that the Wilderness Act makes it impossible for sufficient timber to be gathered from non-wilderness-designated areas. This testimony suggests ways in which more timber can be harvested from areas already designated for this purpose and criticizes inefficient timber-culling practices that in turn create a perceived need for more land to be made available for cutting.
