White Mountain Stewardship Project 5 Year Monitoring Report
The White Mountain Stewardship Project is the first and only 10-year stewardship contract in the nation, and is designed to restore forest health, reduce the risk of wildfire to communities, reduce the cost of forest thinning to taxpayers, support local economies and encourage new wood product industries and uses for the thinned wood fiber. This report is an analysis and assessment of the administrative, ecological, economic, and social monitoring data collected between 2005 and 2009. The development of this report was made possible through a partnership between the Forest Service and The Nature Conservancy. Note that the document is a 125 page PDF.
