On forestry, in general, we are aware of the impacts across the board.

The EPA referred to agriculture. I too believe significant work is being done by the agriculture sector to try to minimise the problems, but I am not so certain about the impact of forestry. Maybe that is an omission by me in not knowing the issue in as much detail as I perhaps should. Will the witnesses briefly outline how they see the impact of forestry? Is it the machinery required to fell trees or is it perhaps something else?
