Kentucky's Forest Action Plan

The required 10-year update of Kentucky’s Forest Action Plan has been approved by the USDA Forest Service.  The updated plan is available by clicking on the link to the right.  Through the use of an online survey, the Division of Forestry solicited public and stakeholder input to verify the established issues, and to identify other concerns, threats, and opportunities for Kentucky’s collective forest resources.  Input gathered from this survey was incorporated into a Comprehensive Strategy for Forest Resource Sustainability that leads the division into the next decade, spanning public and private forestlands, and urban and rural areas.  The result of that effort will ultimately ensure that resources are being focused on important landscape areas with the greatest opportunity to address shared management priorities and achieve meaningful outcomes.
