If you click on the map in the link it will show the actual parts being forested. Alot of logging but it's not like the whole thing is being clear cut. It may also be part and parcel of the forest fire manegement policies. Look what happened in BC where the fuel levels got so high.
Also, cutting some forest is good for nature. It simulates the the forest fire effect and encourages new growth which is good for different types of wildlife. As long as they do it responsibly I don't have a real problem with it.

And to mention that they have been doing it since 2001 already.
