Logging in Green Mountain NF shapes town revenue and forests
In Green Mountain National Forest's Manchester district, timber sales fund local towns with about 159000 dollars annually, a quarter of agency revenue. The Forest Service uses selective cutting and other methods to balance recreation, watershed protection, wilderness, and timber. Foresters describe the process from area selection to bidding, logging, road work, and post operation restoration, with mixed views on past overcutting and ecological impact.
