Abstract:

We mailed about 23,000 Pacific Yew newsletters in late December asking for your comments regarding the collection of yew bark on National Forest and U.S. Bureau of Land Management land. We asked for concerns and issues to be addressed in the Pacific Yew Environmental Impact Statement. By mid-February we had received more than 700 comments. In summary, your primary concern, with few exceptions is: Collect Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia) bark for taxol, but at the same time, protect the species and its ecosystem.
