Management of state forest resources and the sale of carbon credits are intended to be complementary. Commercial timber harvest for forest growth and wildlife habitat objectives are specifically compatible with forest carbon projects. Carbon credits can be generated from the management of state forest resources as governed by approved DNR forest management plans. It is not anticipated that the carbon projects will appreciably affect management and timber harvests levels from the forest. Any changes in management will be driven by any future changes to DNR forest management plans, which are updated every 10-years and are subject to public review prior to adaptation.
