Kuhn says it takes time for shellfish to filter through enough algae to become toxic themselves.

In an email to KTOO, the association estimated that around 188,000 acres of currently roadless areas could be considered suitable for logging.
Jill FradesHOST
That's less than 2% of the Tongass.

The association says that's because most roadless areas of the Tongass have additional layers of protection, like a wilderness, natural area, or recreation designation.
