Today's (20april2022) ForestConnect webinar was by Steve Roberge of UNH, NH state extension forester. Steve was presenting from work done at UNH about tactics that loggers and foresters use, voluntarily, to stabilize their logging site and ensure they can continue to access and work their job during extreme weather events. Winters are often without snow or freezing and ground conditions might limit production. This webinar covers some special BMPs (continue using conventional BMPs) to stabilize soils.
Here is a link to some comments that were offered by loggers and foresters watching the webinar. Please add additional thoughts, suggestions and tactics in the comments.
