This results from: (l) the bill's description of the "mature" tree, and (2) the requirement of a non-declining yield of timber for each management area of 500,000 acres or less. The first requirement means that trees would be held for decades beyond the current planned harvest date, and the second would reduce opportunities for recognizing age class distributions essential for maintaining an orderly timber harvest rate.
