		Andy Jones, Director of the Texas Office of the Conservation Fund (512-477-1712 or tcftexas@aol.com), reported on a remarkable change in the landscape of East Texas.
		Beginning in 2001, two timber companies, International Paper and Louisiana Paper, have been in the process of selling 1.5 million acres of land in east Texas, much of it identified as critical wildlife habitat, including swamps, deciduous forest, pine savannas and dry sandhills.
		To make land or water acquisitions in East Texas of this size and cost, the Conservation Fund is proposing to build and draw upon the "Texas Revolving Fund", which would provide direct loans to land trusts and interim funding for purchases of land in partnership with public agencies and non-profits.
