Description
Forestry plans assess residue quantity, arrangement and proximity to high-consequence areas. Options include redistribution, chipping, removal or carefully controlled burning.
Not all dead wood is hazardous or ecologically expendable. Treatment targets dangerous concentrations rather than blanket removal.
