Oregon Forest Industries Council

The Oregon Forest Industries Council (OFIC) is a trade association representing more than 50 Oregon forestland owners and forest products manufacturing-related firms. Its members own more than 90% of Oregon's private large-owner forestland base. OFIC coordinates advocacy on behalf of its members to:

• Maintain a positive, stable business operating environment for Oregon's forest products community and encourage long-term investments in healthy forests.
• Ensure a reliable timber supply from Oregon's public and private forestlands.
• Promote stewardship and sustainable management to maintain productivity and protect environmental values on all of Oregon's forestlands.

OFIC and its members strongly support Oregon's first-in-the-nation Forest Practices Act to protect Oregon forest resources - clean water, fish and wildlife habitat, recreation and quality wood products - and ensure private forestlands will continue to be productive, healthy and sustainable.
