Title
Steve Eubanks Oral History Interview, Part 1
Description
OSU forest engineering graduate Steve Eubanks worked in several Northwest national forests before encountering BLM ecologist Chris Maser in 1977, who hooked him on broad-scale, ecological thinking. As Ranger at the Bear Springs Ranger District on the Mt. Hood National Forest he got to put some of that thinking into practice, and that experience prompted Willamette Forest Supervisor Mike Kerrick to hire him into the ranger position at Blue River District, where he interacted intensively with the Andrews research community between 1984 and January 1989. Eubanks was instrumental in promoting retention of live trees and downed, dead wood in cutting units and placement of big wood as part of river restoration projects. He continued to interact with the research community in subsequent positions as supervisor of national forests in Minnesota and California.
