Title
Speech on the Bull Run Reserve Before the Subcommittee on Indian Affairs and Public Lands
Description
In a speech before the Subcommittee of Indian Affairs and Public Lands, Congressman Les AuCoin proposed new policies and funding to address restrictions and management issues facing the Bull Run Reserve. The Bull Run Reserve contains the Bull Run Watershed, which supplies water to the Portland metro area -- about 1/3 of Oregon's population in 1977. Congressman AuCoin advocated for maintaining water quality at Bull Run Watershed, as well as controlled protective and commercial logging. This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. AuCoin served in the Oregon House of Representatives (1971-1975) and in the United States House of Representatives from Oregon's 1st District (1975-1993).
