Timber Management
Timber management is a vital component of productive forest resource management. The Forest Service sells timber and special forest products on a variety of contract and permit forms based on the complexity and/or value of the sale. Guidance for the use of these forms can be found in the Forest Service Handbook (FSH) 2409.18, Chapter 50, Sections 53 and 54.
