Forest Practices Applications or Alternate Plans
Forest Practices Applications are required before many different land management activities, including timber harvests, can take place. DNR has Regulatory Assistance Foresters who can help walk new and existing landowners through that process to help ensure activities are performed legally and safely.

- Alternate Plans allow landowners to apply for more site-specific management flexibility than standard forest practices rules allow.
