Your Role as a Landowner
Practice sustainable forestry. Alpena Hardboard foresters, in the written forest management plan, outline ways to practice sustainable forestry. It is the landowners responsibility to gain an
understanding of good forest management and make decisions that perpetuate sustainable
forests.
Approve and follow the written management plan
prepared for you. It is the landowners responsibility to follow the
suggestions identified in the management plan to practice sound forestry.
Allow Alpena Hardboard the opportunity to make an offer to purchase your timber
when a harvest is warranted. There is no charge for the forestry services offered
in the Forest Management Program, but we do ask that we be given the chance to purchase
any timber harvested.
Know property boundaries. It is the landowners responsibility to
know property boundaries and corners. Alpena Hardboard foresters
can mark some property lines, but landowners are generally responsible for identifying the
lines.
