• Forest Inventory: Assess the current state of the forest, including tree species, age classes, and health.
• Wildlife Assessment: Identify wildlife species present, their habitats, and any sensitive areas that need protection.
• Soil and Water Analysis: Evaluate soil types, erosion risks, and water sources to understand how logging might impact them.

• Timber Goals: Outline the volume and types of timber to be harvested.
• Conservation Goals: Set objectives for wildlife habitat preservation, soil conservation, and water protection.

• Harvesting Method: Choose appropriate methods (e.g., selective cutting, clear-cutting, shelterwood) based on the objectives.
• Timber Sale Contracts: Prepare contracts specifying terms, conditions, and practices for the harvest.

• Mark Boundaries: Clearly mark areas for harvesting, buffer zones, and sensitive habitats.
• Create Access Roads: Plan and construct access roads in a way that minimizes environmental impact.

• Machinery and Equipment: Use machinery suited to the terrain and minimize soil disturbance.
• Traditional Equipment: Use Horse and no invasion resources 
• Skid Trails and Roads: Maintain these to reduce erosion and minimize habitat disruption.

• Compliance Check: Ensure that logging operations followed the plan and regulations.
• Replanting: Replant native trees and vegetation as needed to restore the forest.
• Habitat Enhancement: Implement measures to enhance wildlife habitat, such as creating brush piles or planting cover crops.
