A Los Angeles Times story on the U.S. Forest Service's study of the effects of increased grazing and logging in the Sierra Nevada's 11 national forests quotes Jim Quinn, professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy, who was part of a team of scientists and academics who reviewed the study at the Forest Service's request. Quinn said that scientists remain concerned that a number of species in the Sierra Nevada would "react badly" to the proposed increases. A similar story in the Sacramento Bee quoted Quinn extensively.
