Professional management of forest and recreational resources is essential to protect the balance between the environmental needs of the forest and the forest products, and of equal importance, for the intangible social values necessary to enhance the quality of life.

State of the art management is essential to maintain the overall health of forest resources and maximize the economic and biological benefits the forest produces.  The challenge is to manage the forest for high quality products on a sustainable basis and to provide recreational opportunities to the public.  Managing the balance between the demand for forest products and enhancement of forest resource biodiversity will continue to be an ongoing objective.
