Beaver State fue construido por estadounidenses que dependían de la tierra para su sustento. Las industrias de recursos naturales como la agricultura, la silvicultura y la pesca del salmón siguen siendo parte integral de la economía de Oregón en la actualidad. Nuestro estado también ha sido durante mucho tiempo un destino para los estadounidenses que buscan experimentar el aire libre. Las tierras públicas protegidas de Oregón brindan hábitats valiosos, suministran agua limpia y generan empleos a través de cosechas sostenibles, recreación y turismo. Preservar nuestros recursos naturales y tomar decisiones inteligentes sobre el desarrollo económico ayudará a impulsar el crecimiento rural y garantizará que las generaciones futuras puedan disfrutar de los lugares salvajes y las tierras públicas de Oregón mientras dan trabajo a la gente.
