The Forest Science Extension Program is a primary means of disseminating the information generated by Departmental and other research
programs to woodland owners, practicing professional land managers, and the general public. Our broad, general goals are to:
- Promote good land stewardship
- Translate and disseminate research information
- Create positive attitudes toward active forest management for attainment of owner objectives, and
- Facilitate the exchange of operational technology among forest land managers.
Organizationally, Extension is linked to the USDA Extension Service through the College of Forestry Dean's Office.
Extension specialist faculty, however, are directly supervised by the Department Head. The current Forest Science Extension Program includes the
following personnel:
- Glenn Ahrens, Staff Chair, Forestry Faculty,Clatsop County Extension
- Mike Bondi, Staff Chair, Forestry Faculty, Clackamas County Extension
- Doug Maguire, Hayes Professor of Silviculture
- Tara Nierenberg, Statewide Watershed Education Coordinator
- Paul Oester, Extension Forester, Union County Extension
- Dave Shaw, Forest Health Extension Specialist
- Brad Withrow-Robinson,
Extension Forester, Yamhill County Extension
