1 Prescribed Burning
2 Prescribed Burning Effects Potential to directly impact vulnerable wildlife species May kill fire intolerant plants Potential for erosion resulting from fireline construction Stimulates growth and sprouting of many native plant species Releases nutrients to enhance plant growth Physically opens up the forest Creates snags and openings allowing for regeneration
3 Site Preparation of Existing Southern Pine Beetle Spots Drum Chopping Site Preparation Prescribed Burn
4 Effects of Site Preparation Prepares the site for tree planting Reduces competition Prescribed Burning Effects Potential to directly impact vulnerable wildlife species May top-kill fire intolerant plants Potential for erosion resulting from fireline construction Drum Chopping Effects Slight Soil Disturbance Direct impacts to plants Potential to directly impact vulnerable wildlife species
5 Regeneration Practices Tree planting by hand (Artificial) Natural-Hardwood sites
6 Artificial Regeneration Effects Desirable species are established Early successional habitat temporarily available Restoration stocking levels Native community types established
7 Natural Regeneration Effects Species establishment based on seed source and sprouting Early successional habitat temporarily available Stocking levels uncontrollable Native community types established
