Public Involvement in State Forests

Public involvement in state forest management, operations and monitoring is part of sustainable forestry. We seek public involvement because we believe people, communities, organizations and businesses realize the potential public benefits of state forests and are willing to work to further the goals of sustainable forestry.

Each state forest offers an annual public stakeholder meeting to foster open and transparent discussion regarding state forest management issues. Each meeting communicates annual work plans, including, but not limited to, recreation issues and future development projects, proposed timber management activities, insects and disease, wildlife, water issues and fish management. If a state forest is in the process of revising its Master Plan, additional opportunities exist for public input.
