                        Bob Wise - Governor  Randy Dye - Director/State Forester     Fire Control Nursery Logging Water Quality ... State Office MILD SPRING FIRE SEASON REPORTED When the 2004 Spring Forest Fire Season officially ended on May 31, it was recorded as one of the milder fire seasons in recent history. Division of Forestry officials say that 4,200 acres burned throughout the State this spring, the result of 500 wildfires. Of those 500 fires, 47% were caused by carelessness when debris burns were allowed to escape and set the surrounding woods on fire. Arson accounted for another 24% of all the forest fires that occurred during the spring season. Other causes of forest fires in West Virginia include equipment use, railroads, smokers and children. “Frequent rainfall and quick response time were key factors in preventing more acres from being damaged by wildfire,” said State Forester Randy Dye. “Division of Forestry personnel always do an excellent job suppressing forest fires, and I cannot give enough credit to local volunteer fire departments for the role they play in assisting with wildfire suppression,” Dye continued. FORESTRY OFFICIALS READY IF CALLED TO HELP WITH WESTERN FIRES With ample rainfall keeping down fires this spring, Forestry officials were able to concentrate on wildfire suppression training. In recent months, more than 230 people attended classes statewide to learn about wildland firefighting techniques. Individuals who complete this training are better able to assist in fighting forest fires in West Virginia and also are eligible to serve on western fire crews.

Up Forest Statistics Shieling Forest Taylor Mill [Urban Forestry Center] URBAN FORESTRY CENTER Introduction and History One of New Hampshire’s most unique resources is not found on a majestic mountain top... or in the state’s many lakes, rivers, and streams... or even within its wooded forests. It’s actually located on a quiet road on the outskirts of Portsmouth, just waiting to be discovered by anyone who values New Hampshire’s woodlands and natural resources. The Urban Forestry Center was established in 1976, and was given to the people of New Hampshire through a generous bequest by John Elwyn Stone, a direct descendant of John Langdon , the first governor of the state. Mr. Stone’s gift consists of 170 acres of field, forest, and saltmarsh, several buildings, and the annual interest income from a trust fund. The property is managed by the Division of Forests and Lands of the Department of Resources and Economic Development. The Center is used as a Tree Farm to demonstrate proper forest management, a bird and wildlife sanctuary, a garden and landscape demonstration site, and as a learning center offering information and programming in community forestry planning, forest management, ecology, tree and plant identification, and wildlife stewardship.
