    On page 1, beginning on line 5, after "Sec. 1." strike all material through "short-term." on line 16 and insert "The legislature finds that it is in the public interest to identify and provide long-term conservation of those productive natural resource lands that are critical to and can be managed economically and practically for long-term commercial production of food, fiber, and minerals.  Successful achievement of the natural resource industries' goal set forth in RCW 36.70A.020 requires the conservation of a land base sufficient in size and quality to maintain and enhance those industries and the development and use of land use techniques that discourage uses incompatible to the management of those designated lands.  The 1994 amendments to RCW 36.70A.030 (8) and (10) (section 2 of this act) are intended to clarify legislative intent regarding the designation of forest lands and are not intended to require every county that has already complied with the interim forest land designation requirements of chapter 36.70A RCW to reconsider its actions."
