1 University of Illinois Extension Technical Forestry Bulletin NRES-201 Illinois Technical Forestry Assistance: Forest Management & Urban Forestry University of Illinois Extension Forestry is proud to present the following Technical Forestry Bulletin to our readership. This technical assistance directory is provided as a public service to Illinois forest landowners, homeowners, citizens, and municipalities requiring the advanced technical services of a professional forester or a certified arborist. Forests and the Forestry Profession in Illinois Providing technical forestry assistance to 206,000 family forest owners and 12.8 million citizens is a daunting task. No worries the small, but dedicated group of forestry professionals here in Illinois pride themselves on providing high-quality skilled services, despite extensive funding and staffing shortages to IDNR s Division of Forest Resources. Therefore, a significant portion of the state s professional forestry burden has been placed upon the backs of Illinois s professional consulting foresters and ISA certified arborists. Illinois s professional forestry community including state, federal, university, municipal, industry, consulting, and urban foresters plays an integral role in advocating, conserving, and managing our state s highly valuable rural, urban, and community forest resources. In fact, professional foresters and the forestry profession are vital to Illinois s economic viability and stability. Take for instance Illinois s multi-billion dollar forest-based outdoor recreation industry, which includes hunting, fishing, wildlife viewing, nature photography, fall color viewing, hiking, camping, mountain biking, cross country skiing, horseback riding, geocaching, and a myriad of other forest-associated recreational uses. And of course we cannot forget about Illinois s multi-billion dollar forest products industry, which includes the sale of standing timber, Christmas trees, nursery products, and our state s often overlooked primary and secondary wood products manufacturing businesses. When all is said and done, our forests and our professional foresters are essential to the environmental and economic sustainability of Illinois!

Illinois NRCS Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Website: District Forester Services: District foresters are limited in their availability to provide onsite, technical forestry assistance due to extensive budget cuts and associated district forester vacancies. As a result of these personnel shortages, all district foresters have a significant backlog of landowner requests for on-site technical forestry assistance. Due to these circumstances, a professional consulting forester (Technical Forestry Bulletin NRES-201) may be able to provide a quicker response to landowners requests for on-site technical forestry assistance.
