The Forest Service manages forest lands to increase the resiliency of landscapes. We have many program areas where we work under this overarching forest restoration theme including: 

• Vegetation Management (Forestry, Botany, Invasive Plants)
• Watershed Management and Restoration (Fish, Aquatics, Soil & Water)
• Heritage and cultural resources
• Wilderness and Wild & Scenic Rivers
• Timber Sales
