The North Coast State Forest Coalition (NCSFC) is a coalition of non-profit organizations in Oregon that works to protect wild salmon, steelhead, trout, terrestrial species, and the ecosystems on which these species depend.
The core members of the coalition are Wild Salmon Center, Association of Northwest Steelheaders, Oregon Council of Trout Unlimited, Oregon Chapter of Sierra Club, Pacific Rivers, Native Fish Society, and Northwest Guides and Anglers Association.
The North Coast State Forest Coalition was created in 2011 when Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber called for the creation of "visible and durable" conservation areas on Oregon state forest lands.

The North Coast State Forest Coalition helped bring attention to the tree, which is on the Oregon Department of Forestry's Land Acquisition and Exchange Plan for potential trade to a logging company.
