Presentations

 I was involved in constructing and presenting several professional presentations covering forest management practices and history as they affect or had affected salmonid fishes and their habitat. Formats included Harvard Graphics® and Power Point®. Most were placed on CD-ROM for presentation or archiving. These may be available via FOIA from the Payette National Forest.
