ESF OUTREACH SUNY College of Environmental Science & Forestry ESF Outreach SUNY College of Environmental Science & Forestry Syracuse, New York 13210-2784 A Best Management Practices Workshop for foresters, loggers and forest landowners: Timber Harvest Planning and Implementation Grahic Timber Harvest Planning and Implementation When trees are harvested from a forest there is always a potential to disturb forest soils, resulting in sediment-laden runoff which adversely impacts our streams, rivers, lakes, ponds and wetlands. Before and during times of harvest, use of Best Management Practices (BMPs) helps to minimize contamination of drinking water, as well as degradation of our fish and wildlife habitat. The objective of the workshop is to enhance landowner, logger and forester awareness surrounding BMPs that relate to the model forestry law that is before the towns of Bristol, South Bristol, Naples, Italy, Middlesex, Canadice, Richmond and Gorham. Intended Audience: Foresters, Loggers and Landowners.
