GOOSE PASTURE #2 TIMBER SALE

This opportunity is a timber sale of a second‑growth thinning on the GOOSE PASTURE #2 plantation. The District will sell the harvested timber to a qualified logger who must adhere to specific stand‑management requirements, including retaining a basal area of the best trees and using existing loading decks and skid trails where feasible. The District’s Project Manager will monitor the harvest to ensure compliance with the objectives. • Unmarked logger‑select second thinning within planted pine; purchaser must leave 40 sq ft basal area per acre of the largest, best‑formed trees. • Logger must use existing loading decks and skid trails from the first thinning when practical; logging slash is to be scattered back through the stand. • District Project Manager will conduct routine assessments of the timber harvest to verify objectives are met.
