NY SAF Summer Meeting
New York SAF Summer Meeting
Forest Management with Unique Management Objectives:
The Case of Fort Drum
August 15-16, 2001
Fort Drum and Watertown, NY
Sponsored by—
New York Society of American Foresters
In cooperation with
SUNY ESF Continuing Education
Remediation of contaminated sites using willow plantings, controlled burns in different forest types, timber stand
improvement to facilitate troop movements, salvaging ice storm damaged timber, the largest open field bird habitat in
single ownership, scotch pine erosion control plantings: Fort Drum has all of this and will be features during the
summer NYSAF meeting.
The meeting will also include opportunity to apply different ownership objectives to a parcel of land and compare
management strategies.
Fort Drum is quite different from what you see by simply driving along Route 3. For those who may have been there
in the Army Reserve or Guard decades ago, there have been major environmental changes. (We may even be able to
see a live artillery fire demonstration.)
