As today’s landscape continues to change, there is an increased need to manage wildlife and forests. Landowners are encouraged to utilize our services, no matter what the size or situation. Many grants, cost share programs, and tax breaks may be available to landowners for managing their property.
Our staff can supply technical support for most types of landowner management objectives. Managing forest and wildlife can bring satisfaction, beauty, environmental quality, improved hunting, increased timber value, increased property value and many other benefits to the landowner.
Before you begin any logging activity, it’s a good idea to evaluate the potential for erosion problems on the site. Let us and our partnering agencies help you develop an operation and managment plan (O&M Plan) to prevent excess erosion and minimize problems and fend off any potential complaints.
