Perceptions of Change in the US Pacific Northwest Forest Practices on Certified and Noncertified Holdings

A mail survey of certified and noncertified forest managing entities (public agencies, forest industry, and nonindustrial private forest owners) in the US Pacific Northwest region (PNW) was conducted to better understand forest practitioners' perceptions related to the degree of change in forest practices. The results of this study reveal that forest managers perceive relatively small changes in practices in the US PNW, regardless of the certification standard used, although the degrees of change differed for public, forest industry, and nonindustrial private forest owners. This conclusion applies to both certified and noncertified holdings.

The Cadillac Pilot Project: A Test Case for Coordination of Services to Nonindustrial Private Forest Owners

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of interorganizational coordination efforts in a hardwood management project for nonindustrial private forest owners in a 14 county region in northern lower Michigan. By various measures the coordination effort was judged to be a success. There were a number of factors and strategies that contributed to the success of the interorganizational coordination effort including: (1) prior cooperation in the region; (2) moving from informal cooperation to formal coordination; (3) moving from interpersonal to institutional linkages; (4) conditions of mutual dependency; (5) the coordinator's role strategies; and (6) common professional cultures. An understanding of these factors and strategies will be useful in facilitating similar coordination projects elsewhere, but it is stressed that the social conditions in different regions may be different and therefore necessitate a modification of these strategies to fit these differing conditions.
