Partnerships
Managing a vast system of public lands cannot be accomplished alone. The National Forests in Florida works with a broad range of partners throughout Florida, both in land management and in recreation, to accomplish our mission.
Some of our major land management partners include:
Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission - Oversees hunting and fishing in the National Forests in Florida and works in partnership for wildlife conservation.
Florida Forest Service - Lead agency for fire issues, including both prescribed burns and wildfire response.
Florida Department of Transportation - Manages right of way for federal and state roads, coordinates future plans for changes to transportation corridors and facilities.
