Forest harvest practices in and around sensitive areas – a literature review
Brenda R. Baillie
Harvesting activities have the potential to adversely impact environmental values, particularly in sensitive forest areas such as; steep unstable erodable terrain, compactable soils, wetlands, water bodies, and riparian areas. Because of their environmental sensitivity, these areas often require alternative harvesting systems to achieve environmentally acceptable standards or are left unharvested because costs outweigh the value of the timber. The objective of this literature review was to collate and examine information on international harvest systems, practices, tools and equipment that allow limited harvesting activities in these environmentally sensitive areas. The review has identified a range of systems and practices with the potential to allow restricted harvesting activities in environmentally sensitive areas06/2010. 25pp.
