The Newton County Wildlife Association (Ark.) continues its 35th year of investigating and advocating for forest practices that are beneficial to outdoor recreation, water resources, and wildlife including their habitat. In 2008-2009, we are opposing prescribed fire and herbicide use on public lands in Arkansas. Public health is again an issue.
