Old Mill District History section

edit

I am new at editing on Wikipedia and don’t want to make a false step.


I’ve read statements similar to this paragraph in this section before but don’t see a source listed. I tried checking sources on the OHS webpage but they are no longer there. Could the original editor here check and link the sources:


”After more than 20 years of non-stop logging, the forests in Central Oregon were becoming depleted. In 1937, the Bend Chamber of Commerce warned of economic disaster unless the mills started sustainable forestry. The mills ignored these warnings and continued producing at full capacity. By 1950, the forests' depletion led to the decline of Oregon's logging industry.” RussellCofIdaho (talk) 06:21, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
