Feb explain to me how all this clearcutting and then burning is good for the land? Most of the dirt around here won't grow grass hardly. After burning off all the plant material and killing the soil microbes there is probably no topsoil left.

Worse, logging like its being done is creating a situation that causes erosion and runoff into the lake. There are no silt fences, no buffers. Why is Al Power or the EPA worried about a little disturbance at the shoreline when tons of silt and sediment (sewage too?) is being dumped into the lake everytime it rains.

I wonder why Tallapoosa county doesn't make these loggers leave buffers between the cutting and the roads. Talk about ugly. On top of that I'll bet the landowners are getting the agicultural tax deferrals while tearing up the roads running loggin trucks around.
