Is it required by law that Forestry BMPs are used during timber harvesting?
Forestry BMPs are required on county and state owned forest lands in Wisconsin. A number of Forestry BMPs are required on private (industrial and non-industrial) lands that are enrolled in the Managed Forest Law (MFL). In addition, county, state, and MFL lands are now certified as sustainable, and this certification further reinforces the use of Forestry BMPs.
