TITLE: Operator notification files
DATES: 2002-
ARRANGEMENT: Chronological by intent and notification number

DESCRIPTION: The Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands administers the Utah Forest Practices Act (UCA 65A-8(a) (2004)). The law requires timber operators to register with the division and to provide thirty days advance notice of their intent to conduct forest practices, which are reforestation or tree harvesting activities. Notifications include names of land owners and operators as well as descriptions of location and extent of forest harvesting. The division acknowledges registration by issuing a notification of intent number. The division also provides operators with guidance, technical assistance, and information on water quality guidelines. This process helps the division to track timber harvesting activities on state and private land in Utah.
