LOGGING

Land disturbing forestry activities (harvesting site prep) in the state of North Carolina are regulated under the SPCA and the attendant Forest Practice Guidelines for water quality. The guidelines were developed to protect water quality and can be found by clicking here.

The N.C. Department of Labor has approved a state interpretation of the current Federal Logging Standards to account for local conditions. These interpretations have been judged to equal or exceed the Federal standards. Click here for a copy of the N.C. Logging Operations - Interpretive Guide.
