Tips for timber salvage on private land outlined by state forestry
Land owners who want to recover some of
their losses after fire should begin planning sal-
vage operations immediately to avoid a loss of
timber value to decay, and insect and disease
infestation.
The Oregon Dept. of Forestry (ODF) said
that it and other agencies are ready to help land
owners plan salvage operations and understand
their obligations after one of the worst fire sea-
sons in Oregon’s recorded history.
“Land owners and managers considering
salvage operations on land that has been dam-
aged by fire should begin to plan immediately,”
said Brad Knotts, ODF forest practices policy
analyst.
A salvage harvest refers to logging timber
that has been killed or damaged.
“One reason for salvage harvesting is to
recover losses, because the timber may still
have market value until it begins to decay,” said
Knotts. “You might also consider salvage har-
vesting because large patches of dead timber
can allow insect populations to build up and
move into nearby healthy trees.
“Salvage harvest of timber should be part of
a land owner’s overall management plan,” said
Knotts. “And it should be designed to meet land
owner objectives, legal requirements, and resto-
ration needs for fish, wildlife and water qual-
ity.”
Knotts added that land owners should ask
questions first to make sure that they obtain the
result they want, and to avoid getting into trou-
ble later.
ODF forest practice foresters are available
to help land owners sort out the rules as they
apply to salvage operations.
Salvage harvesting on private land falls un-
der the Oregon Forest Practices Act. It
“promotes the growing and harvesting of forest
trees on private forestland while protecting soil,
air, water, and fish and wildlife resources.” In
contrast, added ODF, salvage harvesting on fed-
eral forestland is subject to federal laws, rules
and agency policies.
