    TESTIMONY of RANDY MOORE, REGIONAL FORESTER PACIFIC SOUTHWEST REGION UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE—FOREST SERVICE BEFORE THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT AND REFORM—SUBCOMMITTEE ON ENVIRONMENT August 20, 2019 Concerning WILDFIRE RESPONSE AND RECOVERY EFFORTS IN CALIFORNIA Chairman Rouda, Ranking Member and Members of the Subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you today to discuss wildfire response and recovery efforts in California. My testimony today will focus on the 2017-2018 fire seasons, as well as the forecasted 2019 wildfire activity this summer and fall. I will also provide an overview of the Forest Service’s wildfire mitigation strategies, including ways the Forest Service is working with its many partners to improve forest conditions and help communities prepare for wildfire. 2017 AND 2018 WILDIRES AND RELATED RECOVERY EFFORTS In the past two years, California has experienced the deadliest and most destructive wildfires in its recorded history. More than 17,000 wildfires burned over three million acres across all land ownerships, which is almost three percent of California’s land mass. These fires tragically killed 146 people, burned down tens of thousands of homes and businesses and destroyed billions of dollars of property and infrastructure. In California alone, the Forest Service spent $860 million on fire suppression in 2017 and 2018. In 2017, wind-driven fires in Napa and neighboring counties in Northern California tragically claimed more than 40 lives, burned over 245,000 acres, destroyed approximately 8,900 structures and had over 11,000 firefighters assigned. In Southern California, the Thomas Fire burned over 280,000 acres, destroying over 1,000 structures and forced approximately 100,000 people to evacuate.
  • Choosing a Forester

    Choosing a Forester

    Choosing a Forester Choosing the right forester has important long-term consequences for your property. The advice a forester gives, and the advice you choose to pursue, can effect your woods for 30, 40, 50 years -- or longer. The forester will visit your property, talk with you about your expectations and create a forest management plan that refl ects your goals. Educating Yourself Before you can choose the right forester for you, you fi rst need to know: -- what you can do on your property, and -- what you want to do. To better understand your forest land and your options, tap into local resources to help you discover your property’s potential. The Watershed Agricultural Council’s Forestry Program The Forestry Program can also help you with a Watershed Forest Management Plan or other cost- share programs. www.nycwatershed.org . Workshops . Master Forest Owners (MFO) Master Forest Owners are trained landowners who will walk your property with you, share what they see, answer questions, give advice and introduce you to others who can help. www.dnr.cornell.edu/ext/mfo . Catskill Forest Association (CFA) www.catskillforest.org . New York Forest Owners Association (NYFOA) www.nyfoa.org . New York State Department Of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) www.dec.ny.gov . Neighbors Armed with basic knowledge about your woodland’s potential, you decide on the right approach for you and your property and seek out the right professional for the job. Understanding Your Forest’s Potential Before interviewing a forester, create a pre-plan that outlines your forest land goals. List your expectations both short and long term.
  • Tree Care Handbook

    Tree Care Handbook

    Minnesota SWCD Forestry Association Tree Handbook Dear Tree Planter. With headlines reporting the continuing deforestation of the tropical rain forest, one may ask the question: Are America’s forests in danger of disappearing? Because people such as yourself practice reforestation, our forested acres are actually growing in size. About one-third of the United States, or 731 million acres is covered with trees. That’s about 70 percent of the forest that existed when Columbus discovered America. Almost one third of this is set aside in permanent parks and wilderness areas. Minnesotans’ have planted an average of 12 million trees annually; enough trees to cover over 15,000 acres per year. Good land stewards are planting trees for many good reasons. The results of their efforts can be seen in reduced soil erosion, improved air and water quality, healthy forest industries, enhanced wildlife habitat and generally a more attractive surrounding for us to live in. Aspen has become the most prominent tree in Minnesota’s forests. After clearcutting, aspen regenerates readily by sprouting from its root system or by drifting seeds onto disturbed sites. Most of the other major species in Minnesota need some help from tree planters to ensure that they make up a part of the new forest. The following pages will help explain how to plant and care for a tree seedling. There is a section on the general characteristics and planting requirements of the tree and shrub species commonly planted for conservation purposes in Minnesota. The professionals working in conservation throughout Minnesota thank you for planting, nurturing and wisely using one of Minnesota’s greatest treasures its renewable trees.

The Cooperative Extension Service of the United States Department of Agriculture provided funds for the original development of the Tree Crops for Marginal Farmland project. 4 Tree Crops for Marginal Farmland Many producers would like to increase farm income and decrease income variability. A growing number of farmers are investigating new and diversified sources of income. A resource that has not been tapped to its full potential is marginal farmland, specifically its use for growing tree crops. More than 30 million acres of woodland, idle pasture and cropland exist on Southeast farms, and much of this land could be producing valuable tree crops.
