An "overall benefit" for the species will not be created by just planting seedlings. Has seedling mortality been taken into account? How many of the seedlings planted will actually make it to the stage of the felled trees?
Also, how will the removal of adult trees be compensated for? It will be decades, if not hundreds of years before those seedlings reach adulthood. This benefit permit has no legs to stand on.
