he water system for Oceanside and Cape Meares is one of three case studies highlighted in a new report produced by Oregon State University’s Institute for Natural Resources and funded by a grant from the Oregon Forest Resources Institute (OFRI), which concludes that the highest quality source water for public water providers across Oregon comes from forested watersheds, including those actively managed for timber production. “The Trees to Tap” report is the product of two years of work by faculty from the OSU College of Forestry, who were guided by a statewide steering committee. As a companion piece, OFRI has published “Keeping Drinking Water Safe,” a publication summarizing the report’s key findings. Mike Cloughesy, director of forestry at OFRI, said they presented the idea of a study looking into drinking water in 2018 to OFRI’s board members. The last big literature review was done in 2000. “We had a really good base in 2000 but there was really nothing since – a lot of studies here and there – but nothing that pulled everything together,” Cloughesy said. “We asked the board if we could go talk to the dean of the college and see if this was something that OSU would be willing to take on.” There was a lot of interest in water quality, particularly drinking water. People are worried about their drinking water, Cloughesy said. In Oregon, forested watersheds provide a lot of water. The OSU report took two and a half years of study. Cloughesy said with working with Department of Quality (DEQ), they found that 156 watersheds use forested watersheds. The report looked at three different watersheds in Oregon: Baker City, which is on natural forestland; Ashland, in a managed forest; and Oceanside and Cape Meares. Cloughesy said coastal systems tend to be small and landownership tends to be either state forestry or private ownership. Two companies that are forest landowners own the Oceanside and Cape Meares watershed: Stimson Lumber Co. and Green Crow Corps. “It’s a very big contrast between Baker City, which was like a wilderness area; Ashland, which is on national forest and city property and its managed, but its managed differently because its southwest Oregon; and then Oceanside, which is in the coastal range,”
