MEDIA RELEASE

  Eight Arrested in Upper Florentine Valley, Southern Tasmania's World 
Heritage valed forests

  Police today raided the camp of community forest protesters in the Upper 
Florentine. This move clears the way for Forestry Tasmania to begin work on 
a logging road that will access the old growth forests of the valley.

  Approximately 40 police and forestry workers stormed the camp where 
community activists have been based since October 2006. Eight people have 
been arrested and a local campaigner was taken to hospital with injuries 
sustained from the extreme attempts to remove her from the area.

  Heavy handed tactics were used, and it is alleged that a crow bar was 
employed against activists. "The tactics used to remove activists here today 
have been a breach of duty of care" says independent activist Kylie 
MacFarlane. The safety of the brave people using non violent direct action 
to make a last stand and create much needed awareness has been severely 
compromised"

  Still Wild Still Threatened spokesperson Ula Majewski said "Forestry 
Tasmania are using tax payers' dollars to open the Upper Florentine valley 
to industrial scale logging practices. The proposed devastation of ancient 
old growth forests and irreplaceable carbon sinks is completely 
unacceptable."

  In the lead up to the last federal election, John Howard promised 
protection for this area. This deal has been shamefully reneged upon. The 
legality of Forestry procedures is also questionable in light of the recent 
Federal Court decision regarding the Wielangta state forest.

  "The operations being carried out in the Upper Florentine Valley are 
bordered on 3 sides by World Heritage Area. This area is home to several 
threatened species including the Tasmanian wedge-tail eagle. We are calling 
for an immediate halt to all work in the Upper Florentine region" says Kylie 
MacFarlane. "Changes to policies and infrastructure of the timber industry 
are necessary to create sustainability for the community, workers and the 
integrity of the environment."
