Storm Damage Assistance

The Kentucky Division of Forestry (KDF) realizes that as a result of severe weather, landowners may sustain significant damage to their forests.  Landowners that have sustained damage to their forests as a result of storms should contact a natural resource professional to assess the damage and develop a plan to restore their forests.  The KDF foresters can assess damage and develop a stewardship plan to help manage short and long-term forest health.  Contact the office​ that serves the county where your property is located.
