Landowners, Industry and Contractors 

If you are developing a reclamation plan for a surface mine, need to find out if an area has geologic hazards, or need permits for modifying a shoreline, look here. This is the place if you need help planning a road through your forest, want to buy tree seedlings to plant or other information you need as a commercial or small forest landowner.

Permits and agreements are often needed by private individuals or industry for crossing state lands that we manage including across the floor of Puget Sound or rivers.

We rely on the services of many private contractors that work with land appraisals, prepare environmental review documents, clean up contamination, log timber, build structures, and so much more. If you are interested in how we handle those contracts or wish to contact us about some work, this is the place to look.
