Protect Open Space in The Preserve: How we Benefit from a Healthy Environment
The State of Connecticut's Forest Management Plan calls for active logging across all but two protected core areas over the next 30 years. Almost all of The Preserve will be affected. This means woods trails will be turned into logging roads, stream crossings installed for heavy equipment, and infrastructure expanded that threatens water, soils, and wildlife habitat. The plan does not acknowledge, nor does it include input from our years of comments regarding DEEP’s proposal. But the state is moving ahead on an Operational Plan that starts with the heart of the forest.
This discussion will be lead by Lea Sloan and Judy Preston of the Preserve Protection Alliance, a group of concerned citizens who want to keep others informed about DEEP’s plans, and make sure DEEP hears our input, and responds. The Preserve is an intact forest that could be irreparably damaged by the proposed logging, consequent introduction of invasive species, and road infrastructure construction.
