Public Comments for: HB543 - Forest Sustainability Fund; Office of Working Lands Preservation to manage.
Invasives should be pulled or killed by herbicide and not be permitted to be sold in nurseries
Virginia Loggers Association supports HB 543 and adding the Forest Sustainability Fund Program under the State Forester. The Forest Sustainability Fund allows localities to seriously consider forest land use and offering a lower tax rate to forest landowners. This should result in many more forest landowners retaining their forest in working forests for the long term and maintain a strong forest products industry in Virginia. We hope the committee and the legislature will act favorably on HB 543. Ron Jenkins, Executive Director, VLA
Incorporate small acreage 3acre minimum. Help incentives landowners to preserve and manage habitat and forests for wildlife. Even small woodland lots have the ability to sustain habitat and prevent erosion, act as wind breaks, act as Stream Managemment Zones, Riparian Buffer Zones and prevent runoff into watersheds. Landowners on small acreage that has forests should be able to get loggers in to thin their property and help create better wildlife habitat. Landowners with creeks or rivers on their property even with small acreage should also be able to benefit from their efforts to sustain and protect habitat and watershed.
