Chief. So then we would know that 429,000 is an example; if you 

 have 10 million acres, then we would know that it is about 5 per- 

 cent. 



Mr. DeFazio. And there is also the west side/east side. I mean 

 you can answer the question pretty readily up front. If you use Wil- 

 derness Society numbers, of the acres in question in the Gang of 

 Four rep>ort, which are west side USFS, you would have 3.8 million 

 acres in old-growth and 10.2 million acres in other. Now that is 

 rounded. But then if you include east side, I assume that some sub- 

 stantial amount of these acres are east side, and I don't know what 

 the acreage numbers are. 



But if the Chief could clarify those numbers, it would be useful 

 for future discussion. 



Mr. Vento. It would be helpful to me to get that eventually, I 

 think, as well as from Mr. Penfold — if you understand the question 

 I have raised. I understand you didn't have it at your fingertips. 



Mr. Robertson. We would be happy to provide those figures. 

 They are there; I just don't have them with me.
