The Board meets the first Tuesday of each month from 9 am to noon. Currently, the meetings are taking place virtually and in-person in Olympia at the Department of Natural Resources Building, Room 172. The DNR website posts the agenda from each meeting a few days before the meeting.
The purpose of attending BNR meetings is to learn more about how they function and to make public comment on topics of interest.
Until we started attending BNR meetings we believed that our highest officials worked from a philosophy that regards Washington state’s natural resources as actual living matter essential for the physical and spiritual well-being of every part of the environment, not just as a source of revenue for expenditures.
After finding the meetings more akin to a day on the New York Stock Exchange, we have joined with groups and individuals around the state who are powerful advocates for our public forests. Important progress in being made in this tough battle. Come and lend your voice and support.
