Abstract:
Ongoing revitalization of the >5000-year-old tradition of using trees for vital culture and heritage activities including carving and weaving affirms Alaska Native resilience. However, support for these sustained cultural practices is complicated by environmental and political factors. Carving projects typically require western redcedar (Thuja plicata) or yellow cedar (Callitropsis nootkatensis) trees more than 450 years of age—a tree life stage and growth rate inconsistent with current even-aged forest management strategies. Herein, we qualitatively assess the significance of wood products to rural communities and Indigenous cultures with implications for natural heritage sustainability. In partnership with Alaska Native Tribes, we engaged local youth programs to lead community discussions throughout southeast Alaska to provide specificity to the suite of cultural activities linked to regional forest lands. Results from 58 discussions across 11 southeast Alaska communities (primarily Alaska Native participants) highlighted the cultural importance of forest products including totem poles, dugout canoes, longhouses, woven hats, and woven baskets. Findings indicated spiritual well-being, health, education, tourism, and livelihood significance attributed to these products. Participant-suggested management strategies for increasing supply and expanding access to trees on public lands included: engaging local artisans in forest planning, selecting and delivering specific trees to roads as part of ongoing timber sales, allowing bark removal prior to forest-timber sales, simplifying the tree-acquisition permit process, and setting aside cultural forest groves to sustain trees seven generations into the future. By facilitating discussions, this study fostered relevant place-based youth and community engagement, benefiting youth and enhancing community knowledge transfer while simultaneously summarizing the significance of forest products for resilient culture and heritage activities. Forest management plans aiming to support Alaska Native lifeways may benefit from improved understanding of Indigenous perspectives and worldviews; designation of “culture market values” and “culture targets” can help deliver a broad array of ecosystem services.

Abstract:
AbstractA growing literature documents the positive impact of community management on non-timber forest conservation but not on the condition of timber forests, which require higher management intensity than do non-timber forests. Using ground-level data of the age composition of trees and the management activities of timber forests and applying a rigorous econometric technique to deal with the endogeneity of handing over forest use rights to the community, we find that a longer period of community management is associated with a higher density of pole-size trees, indicating that community management facilitates the rehabilitation of timber forests. We also find that population pressure leads to deforestation under state management but encourages forest management under community management.

Abstract:
The government encourages community elements to be economically independent. The encouragement and support was realized with facilities for the community to establish UKM. Through SMEs, the community is expected to be able to empower all the resources they have to achieve prosperity. SMEs in the food sector are very high growth, SME capacity development needs to be improved, and food security issues need to be addressed. Fulfillment of safe and quality food is the basic right of every human being, including food produced by the Household Food Industry. CV. Panca Boga Langgeng is our abdimas partner that produces household-scale food products, which have the desire to increase its business capacity, the obstacles faced are market share only limited to family, friends and circles around the place of business. Business owners cannot produce on a larger scale and market widely because they do not have legality. To understand the problems and potential of our partner SMEs, we use the SWOT method, the work system of the SWOT method in formulating strategic solutions is outlined in the matrix, internal and external aspects are used as the basis for determining strategies or efforts that can be achieved so that business objectives can be achieved. The results of community service activities include: the partner has a NPWP, a business permit and has received a registration number for the management of BPOM's distribution permit.

This paper aims to analyze the involvement of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) of forestry policy frame with focus on the Community Forestry program in West Nusa Tenggara. The method in this study is using literature studies. The Data sources uses secondary data such as documents, legislation, articles and books containing the participation of NGOs in forestry programs. In the implementation of the HKm’s program is to realize democratization that is very strategic. It is because NGOs as a representation the needs and aspirations of people in forest areas. In the realm of policy, Forestry NGOs in NTB region synergized with all stakeholders that involved in the Community Forest program, ranging from formulation to evaluation. The involvement of NGOs in the community of HKm area is manifested by the assistance and business development of the community in the management of Non-Timber Forest Products (HHBK). Monitoring and evaluation efforts as a basis for government policy advocacy to fit the community context is a form of NGO participation in forestry policy. However, as an independent organization, NGOs rely on the availability of fund in handling the empowerment program.

Clinical Laboratory Sciences are under pressure to reduce the number of tests and cut staff and supply costs. The ability of academic centres to continue to deliver high quality service, teaching and research is threatened. In difficult economic times imaginative strategies are needed to look for solutions which will permit continued advancement in academic and clinical standards. Rationalization of service and cost-effective use of resources are not new concepts; however, there is a scarcity of models which have been developed and promoted by the providers of laboratory services, rather than those imposed by governments and other paying agencies. A model developed and evolved over the last two decades by The Hamilton Health Sciences Laboratory Program (HHSLP) is outlined.

Selective logging and sylviculture practices in the timber improvement program modify forest structure. In order to understand the influence of such disturbance on bird community, and the relationship between forest structure and bird community, investigation was carried out in mid-elevation area in northern Taiwan. I compared the forest structure, bird community, and the microhabitat utilization of birds in the site 9 years after selective logging for Cypress plantation, with those in undisturbed forest. Breeding bird density was censused in 23 sample stations by variable circular method. In microhabitat investigation, each bird was recorded with respect to the plant lifeform, forest stratum, and perch position in the tree crown where it is observed in active state. Vegetation and habitat structure were censused with 20 5m×5m quadrates in each sample station. Birds were divided into 8 guilds by their diet, foraging maneuver, and activity strata according to the information of previous studies and data from my microhabitat investigation. A total of 110 tree species was recorded during the study period. The treatment of timber improvement significantly reduced tree density of small to medium size and the coverage of shrub to subcanopy layer. The coverage and height of groundlayer , and the vertical heterogeneity increased. Tree species diversity, total coverage, foliage height diversity, and the horizontal heterogeneity of understory were also reduced . 35 breeding bird species were recorded in undisturbed forest, 27 of them were abundant enough for estimating density. Such species richness was slightly higher than those recorded in treated forest, where 32 species were found, and 25 of them with estimated density. However, the difference of species composition was small. The total bird density in undisturbed site was higher than in treated site, but the dominance was more concentrated in the former, thus rendering the species diversity index lower than the latter. The number of species which became more abundant in the undisturbed site was equal to that increased in treated one, but the treatment effect differed among guilds significantly. Ground gleaning omnivores, upperstory gleaning insectivores, and upperstory hovering insectivores suffer more impacts from timber improvement treatment. On the other hand, understory gleaning insectivores, upperstory trunk probing insectivores, and upperstory gleaning omnivores were more abundant in treated site. The diverse response among guild were attributed to the difference of the food resource and foraging microhabitat. In treated site, microhabitat utilization of birds was significantly concentrated on dominant tree canopy and groundlayer. The utilizing range in vertical strata were reduced. The perch position of upperstory birds tended to shift towards the outside of crowns. The trend of microhabitat breadth followed that of density of each guild, but the average microhabitat overlap among species showed reverse pattern. The microhabitat breadth wasn''t related to the density difference between the two site, neither was the microhabitat shift. Detrended correspondence analyze was used to analysis bird species assemblages. The most important factor corresponding to the bird community variation was the habitat structure difference resulted from timber improvement treating. The second was altitude. Bird community variation among sample stations was highly correlated with vegetation variation and habitat structure variation. Most of the species distributed towards higher altitude were more abundant in undisturbed site. The diversity index along altitudinal gradient was higher there. Tree species diversity index, foliage height diversity, total coverage, horizontal heterogeneity index were related to the major variation gradient of bird community, but all of them had low correlation with bird species diversity, number of species, and total density.

<em>Abstract.-</em>A put-and-take winter rainbow trout <em>Oncorhynchus mykiss </em>fishery was established at Banner Lake South in southern Iowa during 2004. The objectives of the new program were to promote angling and to increase trout permit sales. A total of 16,329 catchable rainbow trout were stocked between October and March in 2004-2005, 2005-2006 and 2006-2007. During 2005-2006 each stocking was individually marked with a distinctive fin clip and a creel survey was conducted to determine angler attitudes, demographics, harvest, how quickly stockings were depleted, and whether the program paid for itself. Additionally, permit sales in an eight county area surrounding Banner Lake South were monitored through the Electronic Licensing System for Iowa (ELSI). Nearly 7,200 angler-hours were expended to harvest 83% of the fish within each two week period post-stocking, leading to approximately 90% of each stocking being harvested. Overall catch rate during 2005-2006 was 1.41 rainbow trout per hour. The majority of the anglers were Caucasian males between the ages of 16 and 64. The creel survey revealed that 56% purchased a trout permit specifically to fish Banner Lake South; these were considered new permit buyers. However, the ELSI system found that 32% of sales were to new buyers. Disparities may be due to bias from angler interviews or sales outside of the eight county area. Additionally, the creel survey indicated that 15% purchased a fishing license specifically to fish Banner Lake South. The ELSI system was unreliable in identifying new fishing license buyers. For every dollar spent on the trout program at Banner Lake South during the first three years of the program, an average of $1.68 was generated as profit from trout permit sales in the surrounding eight county area.

<em>Abstract.-</em>The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission incorporated fishing clinics into its Urban Fisheries Program in 1999. Clinics are designed to expose youth to fishing opportunities, and it is our goal to utilize fishing clinics to enrich the lives of youth with the outdoor experience. In the process, we aim to recruit new anglers and ultimately increase fishing permit sales. For a fishing clinic to be successful in recruiting new anglers, it must meet the needs of participants. A fishing clinic must provide them with quality fishing equipment and readily available assistance. It must take place at a location where participants will catch fish in comfort and safety. A clinic must be the grounds for establishing lasting mentor relationships, and most importantly, it must provide participants with the skills necessary for them to enjoy fishing in the future as dedicated anglers. Considering the options for bait, target fish species, equipment, clinic location, participant age, group type, and clinic structure will do much to ensure that a fishing clinic is a success for everyone involved.

Abstract:
The San Pedro Bay Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles continue to provide vital rail connections to the rest of the country. The Rail Enhancement Program sets forth the rail improvements necessary to maintain performance as cargo volumes grow through the year 2035. Implementation of the Rail Enhancement Program has faced hurdles including environmental permitting, funding and competing stakeholder concerns. Cargo growth eased in the years approaching 2010, but the timing of proposed improvements to the rail infrastructure remains critical and challenging. The Rail Enhancement Program is the result of work over the past ten years. Conditions affecting the program have continued to change since the original Rail Master Planning Study of 2000. Updates to the Master Plan have been performed in 2005 and 2010. These documents provide analyses and recommendations for rail improvements to maintain adequate rail service on the Alameda Corridor and through the Port to its rail yards. In developing the Rail Enhancement Program, simulation is used to understand the impacts of increasing cargo volumes on the rail system and to investigate infrastructure and operating improvements required to address deficiencies and to determine improvements to efficiently handle projected traffic. This paper describes the development process with a summary of the analysis methods, resulting proposed rail projects, implementation process and current status of implementation. The steps of the rail system development process include the following: • Evaluation of existing and proposed rail operations; • Conceptual design of over forty potential rail improvement projects; • Analysis of the capacity of existing and proposed facilities; • Scheduling of project development to meet demand; • Estimation of environmental, community and regional impacts and benefits; • Determination of schedule including environmental permit requirements; • Development of project funding plans; and • Preparation of engineering designs and construction documents. The paper will conclude with a summary of the status of key projects from the Rail Enhancement Program. Implementation of the Rail Enhancement Program has included permitting, funding and design efforts on individual projects. The projects currently under development total $1B out of the overall $2B program. The Rail Enhancement Program provides significant benefits to operating efficiencies, environmental impacts and economic impacts. Implementation has been a challenging effort and illustrates the myriad obstacles facing public infrastructure development.

Abstract:
<p>The structural engineering community has a strong responsibility to contribute to a more efficient use of natural resources. Nowadays the construction industry is by far the most resource intense industry sector, approximately 40-50% of all primary raw materials are used, which raises the question about the architects and engineer’s accountability. In this context and as a result of the Paris Climate agreement the Dutch government defined the program “Nederland Circulair in 2050”, which states the ambition to use 50% less primary materials in 2030 and to have a full circular economy in 2050.</p><p>One possible approach to achieve these ambitious goals is the application of renewable, bio-based materials in the built environment and to replace traditional, typically cement-based, materials. Already in the past natural building materials, such as timber and bamboo have been used widely, but in recent years new materials came up and provide new opportunities to be used in the construction industry. The authors explored various alternatives, such as hemp and flax fibres, mycelium and lignin-based fibres for composite materials, which will be described with various experimental and realised case studies.</p>

Abstract:
The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management Office was established in 1982 to carry out the federal government’s responsibilities for low-level radioactive (LLR) waste management in Canada. In this capacity, the Office operates programs to characterize, delineate, decontaminate and consolidate historic LLR waste for interim and long-term storage. The Office is currently the proponent of the Port Hope Area Initiative; a program directed at the development and implementation of a safe, local long-term management solution for historic LLR waste in the Port Hope area. A legal agreement between the Government of Canada and the host community provides the framework for the implementation of the Port Hope Project. Specifically, the agreement requires that the surface of the long-term LLR waste management facility be “conducive to passive and active recreational uses such as soccer fields and baseball diamonds.” However, there are currently no examples of licensed LLR waste management facilities in Canada that permit recreational use. Such an end use presents challenges with respect to engineering and design, health and safety and landscape planning. This paper presents the cover system design, the environmental effects assessment and the landscape planning processes that were undertaken in support of the recreational end use of the Port Hope long-term LLR waste management facility.

Abstract:
The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network (HTLN) is a component of the National Park Service’s (NPS) strategy to improve park management through greater reliance on scientific information. The purposes of this program are to design and implement long-term ecological monitoring and provide information for park managers to evaluate the integrity of park ecosystems and better understand ecosystem processes. Concerns over declining surface water quality have led to the development of various monitoring approaches to assess stream water quality. Freshwater streams in network parks are threatened by numerous stressors, most of which originate outside park boundaries. Stream condition and ecosystem health are dependent on processes occurring in the entire watershed as well as riparian and floodplain areas; therefore, they cannot be manipulated independently of this interrelationship. Land use activities—such as timber management, landfills, grazing, confined animal feeding operations, urbanization, stream channelization, removal of riparian vegetation and gravel, and mineral and metals mining—threaten stream quality. Accordingly, the framework for this aquatic monitoring is directed towards maintaining the ecological integrity of the streams in those parks. Invertebrates are an important tool for understanding and detecting changes in ecosystem integrity, and they can be used to reflect cumulative impacts that cannot otherwise be detected through traditional water quality monitoring. The broad diversity of invertebrate species occurring in aquatic systems similarly demonstrates a broad range of responses to different environmental stressors. Benthic invertebrates are sensitive to the wide variety of impacts that influence Ozark streams. Benthic invertebrate community structure can be quantified to reflect stream integrity in several ways, including the absence of pollution sensitive taxa, dominance by a particular taxon combined with low overall taxa richness, or appreciable shifts in community composition relative to reference condition. Furthermore, changes in the diversity and community structure of benthic invertebrates are relatively simple to communicate to resource managers and the public. To assess the natural and anthropo-genic processes influencing invertebrate communities, this protocol has been designed to incorporate the spatial relationship of benthic invertebrates with their local habitat including substrate size and embeddedness, and water quality parameters (temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, and turbidity). Rigid quality control and quality assurance are used to ensure maximum data integrity. Detailed standard operating procedures (SOPs) and supporting information are associated with this protocol.
