Section 669-4-2 - Purpose of the Rules
A. Silvicultural treatment can be an important part of an integrated spruce budworm control program. The Budworm Suppression Act recognizes the desirability of managing the forest in a way designed to minimize susceptibility and vulnerability to future infestations. If land is being managed in this way, it may be granted a silvicultural treatment designation.
B. The new market withdrawal is to encourage an economical program of salvage and sanitation cutting in budworm damaged stands, a part of a broad forest management program.
