Smoke Management Advisory Committee

About

In 1989, the state legislature directed the State Forester to establish a Smoke Management Advisory Committee (SMAC) to provide advice and assistance to the Oregon Department of Forestry Smoke Management Program. The membership of the committee consists of an industrial forestland owner representative, a non-industrial forestland owner representative, and public representative, a Forest Service representative, and a Bureau of Land Management representative. Each representative serves for two year terms that are renewable after the two year period.

Committee members gather for public meetings in Salem twice a year to discuss and provide advice to the Smoke Management Program regarding current prescribed burning and smoke intrusion trends, program fund balance, implementation plan items, and other current issues and projects of the program.

Oregon's Smoke Management Plan is periodically reviewed and was last reviewed in 2017. Learn more about Smoke Management Program Review Committee.
