Sustainable timber harvesting is a vital forest management tool that balances economic demand for wood products with ecological resilience. By carefully planning and executing timber sales, we support local jobs, provide essential raw materials, and help forests adapt to challenges with environmental stressors like severe weather, drought, and wildfires.

Timber harvests benefit communities by: 

• Creating jobs and revenue in logging, milling, and forest restoration.
• Improving forest health by reducing hazardous fuels and overcrowding.
• Enhancing public safety by lowering wildfire risks and improving access.
• Boosting tourism and recreation by maintaining healthy, accessible National Forests.
