Our Expertise
Our staff of professional foresters offers your project a combined total of 40 years of practical on-the-ground forestry, biological, and firefighting experience. Our primary strength is in the accurate collection of a broad spectrum of field natural resource data (timber volume, wildfire fuel inventories, botanical, biological, hydrological, etc.) and then rendering this data into Geographical Information System (GIS) analytical tools for use in the environmental permitting process. Our Company maintains a professional staff with extensive forest, biological, and active management expertise necessary to author and secure large and complex CEQA/NEPA environmental permits for projects proposed in California’s forest, oak woodland, and chaparral regions.
We have developed “state of the art” fire and fuels management analytical GIS models necessary to evaluate and mitigate environmental impacts resulting from the design of a proposed project. Timber and/or oak woodlands managed by Forester’s Co-Op provide for healthy productive forests, clean water, improved wildlife habitat, and reduce the threat of wildfires to nearby communities. Please contact us today to discuss how our Company can best assist you in meeting your project’s forest, vegetation, or wildfire prevention management goals and objectives.
