  • Forestry Training Centre Incorporated
    FORESTRY TRAINING CENTRE INCORPORATED MANUAL ON INTRODUCTION TO FOREST ROADS And Considerations for Reduced Impact Logging ©Tropical Forest Foundation February 2010. Introduction to Forest Roads And Considerations for Reduced Impact Logging FTCI February 2010 Foreword The renewable nature of forests can be conserved indefinitely provided stakeholders act responsibly their interventions in forest resources. One vital and critical aspect of forest management, whatever the objective of management, is the construction of roads and trails. The harvesting of timber in particular leads to a higher density of roads (km/ha) and in addition skid trails at the rate of about 1- 2.5km/100ha; roads are essential for conveying production inputs (machines, fuel, rations, logging rigs, personnel) to the areas targeted for harvesting, for the removal of logs from forest concessions to processing locations, and for concession monitoring purposes. Poor road design and road construction lead to higher truck maintenance costs and deterioration of logs in transit. Roads are therefore intrinsically linked to the viability of forest enterprises. Good roads also reflect environmental responsibility. This manual is for loggers. Its intention is to sensitise loggers to the key considerations guiding road location, road construction and road maintenance within the context of reduced impact logging. a) It does not in any way attempt to replace the excellent manuals on roads available in stores and on the internet. This manual does not attempt in any way to detract from standard engineering criteria for road location and construction. The objectives of the manual are to: provide loggers with enough information in a simple format to encourage the logger into taking road construction and maintenance more seriously; b) help the logger identify any specific problems and to seek expert technical assistance as required; c) help logger articulate their road construction and road maintenance plans within their forest management plans and their annual plans of operations.

  • South Carolina Department of Natural Resources
    FOREWORD Abundant fish and wildlife, unbroken coastal vistas, miles of scenic rivers, swamps and mountains open to exploration, and well-tended forests and fields…these resources enhance the quality of life that makes South Carolina a place people want to call home. We know our state’s natural resources are a primary reason that individuals and businesses choose to locate here. They are drawn to the high quality natural resources that South Carolinians love and appreciate. The quality of our state’s natural resources is no accident. It is the result of hard work and sound stewardship on the part of many citizens and agencies. The 20th century brought many changes to South Carolina; some of these changes had devastating results to the land. However, people rose to the challenge of restoring our resources. Over the past several decades, deer, wood duck and wild turkey populations have been restored, striped bass populations have recovered, the bald eagle has returned and more than half a million acres of wildlife habitat has been conserved. We in South Carolina are particularly proud of our accomplishments as we prepare to celebrate, in 2006, the 100th anniversary of game and fish law enforcement and management by the state of South Carolina. Since its inception, the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) has undergone several reorganizations and name changes; however, more has changed in this state than the department’s name. According to the US Census Bureau, the South Carolina’s population has almost doubled since 1950 and the majority of our citizens now live in urban areas.
