Landowners and their agents, including consulting foresters, can find the tools here to perform due diligence and document that coverage or exemptions exist for those that will be performing activities related to forest management on their property. Be sure to read the Guidance for Landowners and forest managers guidance document as you prepare for your next timber sale. Utilize the companion checklist to ensure you have followed the guidance. For properly insured, or exempt, loggers, the checklists will not be onerous to complete.
