The purpose of this Stewardship Plan is to provide the landowners, Ted and Harriet Gahr, with a tool to help them better understand their forest, provide analysis of current conditions and future options, and help them achieve their goals, through recommendations for an adaptive, flexible forest management program. This plan should be viewed as a guiding document that points the way towards long-term, sustainable forest management.
The plan will seek to (1) define owner objectives, (2) evaluate the current forest condition, (3) describe a forest policy and operational standards that will help guide future management decisions and (4) outline activities to achieve those goals. Under the direction of ITS Management, Inc. harvests specified in this plan meet the standards for SmartWood Certification.
