  • The Tellico River flows from its headwaters in Cherokee County, North Carolina on into Tennessee.  As it does, it supports a self-sustaining population of wild native brook trout.  Sadly, despite its classification as “Wild Trout Waters” by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in 1991, the Tellico also flows through the Tellico OHV System, an off-road vehicle playground.  Famous for unprecedented ecological damage caused by man and machine, the Tellico has been the scene of a struggle to reign in these impacts.
  • Managing the Miles is the culmination of three years of research into how the Forest Service manages and administers its road system.  The report includes a brief history of how so many miles were built (mostly at taxpayer expense), an in-depth analysis of agency reports, documents and databases, and recommendations on how to improve agency management. Our forests contain more than 375,000 miles of roads, don’t you want to know how they’re managed?

  • Watershed restoration provides much more to society than just clear streams, clean drinking water, healthy aquatic and terrestrial wildlife, and thriving forests. It also constitutes an increasingly important part of rural and urban economies. Restoration employs thousands of Americans, many from declining extraction-based sectors of the economy, in well-paying jobs. It often increases long-term community vitality and quality of life. Watershed restoration presents a rare “win-win” situation to conservation and business communities. As such, an expansion of the ecological restoration sector of the economy is in the nation’s best interest.
