Things to Watch Out For
When a timber harvest is going on near a stream or water course or body of water, what distance must be maintained? Should neighboring woodland owners be notified when a harvest is planned? Are there rules governing the use of pesticides in Maine woodlands?

These are some of the questions that the Maine Forest Service can answer for you. We can help you understand laws and regulations that may affect what you plan to do … before you do it. It is always a good practice to call the Maine Forest Service and ask for help or clarifications.
