2006 Directory of Foresters This directory lists: • Foresters employed by the Department of Natural Resources who assist private landowners. • Private enterprise foresters (consulting foresters and industrial foresters) who have signed a

Cooperating Forester Agreement with the Department. Cooperating Foresters must comply with DNR silviculture standards and rules for all landowner assistance regarding land management guidance and harvest of timber. In addition to these requirements, Cooperating Foresters must attend continuing education courses and file periodic reports with the Department.

• Other partners in the private forestry assistance network including the American Tree Farm System,

Community Forest Resource Center, Cooperative Development Services, University of Wisconsin Extension, Wisconsin Family Forests, Wisconsin Woodland Owners Association and Wisconsin Woodland Owner Cooperatives.

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources provides equal opportunities in its employment, programs, services, and functions under an Affirmative Action Plan. If you have any questions, please write to Equal Employment Opportunity Office, Department of Interior, Washington, D.C. 20240. This publication is available in alternative format upon request. Please call 608-267-7595 for more information.

IMPORTANT DNR DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE PERFORMANCE OF COOPERATORS. The Department of Natural Resources presents this listing with no intended endorsement of particular private cooperators, their qualifications, or services rendered. Check the forester’s references! If you are concerned whether the private cooperator you hire follows a code of ethical behavior, look for affiliations with professional associations (such as the Wisconsin Consulting Foresters, Association of Consulting Foresters or the Society of American Foresters) or certification programs that include a code of ethics. You may also check with the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (1-800-422-7128) for complaints that might have been filed about particular businesses. No criticism is implied of private foresters not listed. Additional foresters are available in Wisconsin, but they have not entered into the Cooperating Forester Agreement and so are not listed in this directory.

Forestry Guidance from DNR, Consulting and Industrial Foresters Why utilize the services of a forester on your property?1 A professional forester will help you achieve your ownership goals and will make sure that the forestry practices used enhance the future condition and value of your woodland. You are more likely to get the job done right. Whether or not you choose to work with a DNR forester or a forester in private enterprise will depend upon the type of service, the complexity of the job and how soon you need help. DNR foresters are employed by the state and are stationed throughout Wisconsin to get you started with forest management. They also administer forest tax and cost sharing incentive programs. Consulting foresters serve or represent private landowners on a contract or fee basis, which the landowner pays. Industrial foresters are employed by wood-using industries that provide advice and assistance to private landowners to promote forestry practices approved by the companies. The following tables list the complementary services offered by public and private foresters.

1 Parts of this section are adapted from UW Extension Forestry Facts No. 75, Hiring a Consulting Forester, by A. Jeff Martin, August 1994.

Landowner Services Offered by DNR Foresters include: • Initial forest management guidance (woodland

walk-throughs, clarification of objectives, office visits, publications)

• Brief to detailed written forestry plans that address sustainable forestry goals including timber, grasslands, wetlands, wildlife, endangered resources, recreation, soil erosion and other concerns

• Timber harvest advice • Forest tax law programs (MFL, FCL) • Technical and administrative assistance for cost

sharing programs • Forest protection measures (fire, insects and

disease) • Tree and shrub planting plans and sources of

materials • Tree and shrub shipments from the state nursery

and facilitation of county tree planting machine use • Demonstrations to improve growth and value of

immature forests • Forestry education through conferences, school

programs, public speaking and news releases. • As time permits, timber sale marking (Limitations:

DNR foresters may set up harvests less than 20 acres for sawtimber or 40 acres for pulpwood, or for larger areas if private consulting foresters decline to provide the service)

• As workload permits, up to 24 hours (three working days) of service to a landowner per year

• Referrals to a private cooperating forester for more detailed services

Services Offered by Consulting and Industrial Foresters may include: • Acquisition and sale of forest lands • Aerial photo mapping and interpretation • Appraisals: land, timber, damage, trespass • Arboriculture • Christmas tree management • Cost Basis determination • Environmental impact statements • Forest Inventory and cruising • Forest management plans • Forest resource and economic studies • Landscape planning • Litigation and expert testimony • Logging engineering • Log scaling and grading • Pest control • Prescribed burning • Recreation - planning and development • Road location, design and construction • Shade tree appraisals • Specialty product marketing • Surveying and boundary establishment • Thinning and pruning • Timber Tax counseling • Timber sales: preparation & administration • Timber sales: solicit bids & prepare contracts • Timber stand improvement • Tree planting and site preparation • Urban forestry • Watershed protection • Wildlife management Individual directory listings show the services offered by each firm.

If you plan to sell timber, a harvest almost always generates more income when a forester assists with the marketing. By using a forester, you will get what your timber is worth. You will also get an appropriate sale contract and sale administration. During a timber harvest, a consulting or industrial forester can periodically inspect the logging, one of the most critical steps in managing your woodland.

A consulting forester can offer a wider range of services than can most other foresters, and can handle most jobs from start to finish. Or, they may handle only a part of the job if you so choose. Consultants can provide services that may be prohibited from other foresters. For example, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) limits, by statute, the services their foresters provide private landowners. When workload or work plans permit, Wisconsin DNR foresters can mark or designate trees to harvest in sawtimber sales less than 20 acres and pulpwood sales less than 40 acres, in any 10-year period. The DNR refers larger timber sales to Cooperating Foresters. In addition, DNR foresters cannot prepare contracts, administer timber sale contracts or otherwise act as a landowner’s agent. Public foresters may also have restrictions on the time they can allot to your forest management needs. In Wisconsin, DNR foresters can give a maximum of 24 hours (three workdays) of technical service each year to an individual

landowner, although workload may limit the available time to considerably less. DNR foresters may also have waiting lists of landowners seeking help, causing delays in service. An independent, private consulting forester works for you, the landowner, and not for a timber buyer, wood-using firm, or the government. A consultant will serve as your agent in a variety of technical matters related to managing your woodland. Although an industrial forester’s first allegiance is to the forester’s employing company, many offer high-quality assistance beneficial to landowners. It is to a forest industry’s advantage to develop long-term relationships of trust where landowners want a firm to come back time and again to harvest their timber. To develop a lasting relationship, some companies offer comprehensive planning services and consistently good prices for timber they purchase. Landowners, foresters and timber buyers must work together to achieve a well-managed forest. Consulting foresters and the buyers may not, however, always see “eye-to-eye.” Both look at the project on your land from a different perspective. Your consulting forester looks out for your best interests and works hard to obtain top dollar and increase the future productivity of your woodland. However, some timber buyers may feel this pushes prices too high and profits too low. As a landowner you undoubtedly want top value, but you should also hope the contract conditions satisfy the buyer so that the logger performs careful work. When you select a consulting forester the ideal choice is an individual or company that both landowners and timber buyers rate highly. Reputable buyers work well with reputable consultants.

When selecting a private forester to hire, consider: • Affiliations with professional associations (such as the Society of American Foresters, Association of

Consulting Foresters2 or Wisconsin Consulting Foresters3) whose members must meet education standards and adhere to a code of ethics

• Years and type of experience. Reliability …references from clients • Education • Attitude …good rapport • Fee structures (hourly, percentage, per acre basis) • Insurance (liability, errors and omissions, workers compensation insurance) • Availability throughout your entire project • Willingness to practice sustainable forestry which integrates environmental, economic and social

concerns • Willingness to listen to your objectives • Special skills your job may require, such as log scaling and grading experience The private forester you choose should serve you and represent your best interests in all matters concerning your woodland. Check the forester’s references! Inclusion in this Directory does not imply an endorsement. Make sure you have a written contract or a letter of agreement signed by both parties that spells out the working relationship in specific terms. About Insurance The Cooperating Forester Agreement requires program participants to carry workers compensation insurance for employees (but not owners or partners) in a forestry firm. Some Cooperators might also carry general liability insurance and errors and omissions insurance. See the definitions of insurance types, below. If insurance coverage is an important factor to you in selecting a Cooperating Forester, be sure to ask the firm for details about their insurance coverage.

• Workers’ Compensation Insurance Provides benefits, as specified by state law, to employees for work-related injuries or illnesses, regardless of who is at fault. Covered expenses typically include medical benefits such as doctor, hospital and surgical costs; related healthcare costs such as physical therapy; disability income benefits, including services such as vocational rehabilitation that help an injured worker return to work; and death benefits.

• General Liability Insurance Protects business owners and operators from lawsuits alleging bodily injury or property damage.

• Errors and Omissions Insurance Protects businesses against liability for committing an error or omission in the performance of professional duties. Errors and Omissions policies are designed to cover financial losses rather than liability for bodily injury or property damage.

2Requirements of Association of Consulting Forester (ACF) full membership include: a college degree in forestry, five years of experience with at least one of those as a consulting forester, professional training with at least twenty credits of continuing education per year, provision of forestry services to the general public (rather than to one primary employer) for a fee, independence from any business which may create a conflict of interest. Candidate Membership (CM) applies to applicants who are building experience or working toward other requirements. 3 Requirements for Wisconsin Consulting Foresters (WCF) are similar to those of ACF, except that the WCF Code of Ethics requires members to decline service to potential clients if the land management being requested is not consistent with generally accepted sound forestry standards.

Master Logger Certification

If you have a forest management plan for your property, in some situations prescribed harvests can be reliably implemented by well-qualified, professional loggers. One of the best measures for timber producer performance is whether they are Master Logger Certified. Master Logger Certification (MLC©) formally recognizes those loggers who have attained the utmost level of training and experience, and who demonstrate an unending commitment to sound forest stewardship. It is the highest form of professional recognition for the logging sector in the state. View a List of Master Loggers at: http://www.wpla.org/master.html

MLC© in Wisconsin Not anyone can be a Master Logger. Every Master Logger applicant must meet or exceed strict performance standards that fall under seven distinct “Areas of Responsibility.” Their harvesting practices must pass a rigorous field audit and their operations must receive the unanimous approval of the Wisconsin MLC© Certification Board. The Certification Board is a diverse group of resource experts and stakeholders, all knowledgeable about the practice of sustainable forestry. Once an individual becomes a Master Logger©, they must be prepared to meet the same verification standards on all of their work. This is done through biannual recertification and a complaint system that can trigger a revisit from field verifiers. The purpose of this program is not just to hold loggers to a higher standard, but to provide a gold standard that is recognizable by forest landowners and mills. To date, 24 Master Loggers have been certified, with more groups to follow. Why is Logger Certification Needed? Why is certification needed for any profession? To give clients, customers, or the general public assurances that the person performing the job has the education, training, skill, and experience to do the job correctly. Many loggers already meet all the standards and criteria of the MLC© program. The problem is they don't have a formal way to prove it. Other loggers can easily meet the requirements with slight modifications to their operations. Some loggers will either not be able to meet the standards or won't care to. The Seven Areas of Responsibility The American Logging Council developed seven Areas of Responsibility for the nation-wide Master Logger program. Any logger wishing to become a certified Master Logger must meet or exceed strict performance standards in each of the following seven areas:

1. Water quality and soils protection 2. Compliance with government regulations 3. Compliance with acceptable silviculture and utilization standards 4. Participation in an on-going training regimen 5. Implementation of aesthetic management techniques 6. Adherence to a site-specific management plan that is agreed to by the landowner 7. Utilization of sound business management principles

For More Information If you are interested in learning more about the Master Logger program, contact the WPLA Main Office toll-free at 877-819-9908 or via email at [email protected].

Wisconsin DNR Foresters Serving Private Landowners Department Foresters provide the services noted on page 3 of this directory. Most are Certified Tree Farm Inspectors and can help with either the traditional American Tree Farm program or the MFL-Tree Farm Certified Group. Statutory priorities, fire control, duties on public land or other workload might limit the time available for some services. If significant delays are anticipated, the DNR Forester may encourage you to contact a Cooperating Forester. If foresters are in the field when you call, please leave a message so they can get back to you. The e-mail addresses listed below are not case sensitive. In the event that the DNR forester position in your county is vacant, the local DNR Team Leader will convey your request to an acting forester. You may also leave a message for DNR or Cooperating Foresters through the on-line Forestry Assistance Locator at: http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/org/land/forestry/Private/Assist/index.htm Adams County Bruce Djupstrom Hwy 13, Box 100 Friendship, WI 53934 Phone: 608-339-3386 E-mail: [email protected] Area Served: Entire County Adams County Nina Stensberg Hwy 13, Box 100 Friendship, WI 53934 Phone: 608-339-3386 E-mail: [email protected] Area Served: Entire County Ashland County Rose Hillebrand 203 E Bayfield St.- PO Box 545 Washburn, WI 54891 Phone: 715 373-6165 E-mail: [email protected] Area Served: LaPointe (Madeline Island) Ashland County Tom Piikkila Box 709 Mellen, WI 54546 Phone: 715-274-6321 E-mail: [email protected] Area Served: Northern and Central Ashland County T43N -T48N Ashland County Rick Thorbjornsen DNR Service Center, 875 S. 4th Ave. Park Falls.

Other Sources of Guidance

American Tree Farm® System The American Tree Farm® System is a nation-wide program encouraging private forest owners to do an effective job of growing trees as a crop. You may have seen a green and white Tree Farm sign on your travels around Wisconsin. Tree Farm is sponsored by professional foresters working for government agencies, industry, and as consulting foresters. Tree Farm inspectors must meet minimum education and experience requirements.

If you are interested in becoming a Tree Farmer, contact the Wisconsin Tree Farm Committee or your local DNR forester. They will arrange to have a state, private or industrial forester look at your property to prepare a Tree Farm management plan. Once certified as a Tree Farm, you can display the sign and subscribe to the American Tree Farmer magazine. You receive notices of conferences, conventions, field days, and study tours on forestry. Certified Tree Farm landowners are also eligible to compete in annual Outstanding Tree Farmer competitions. For information on Tree Farming in Wisconsin, contact: Wisconsin Tree Farm Committee PO Box 285 Stevens Point, WI 54481, Phone 715-445-5991 Email: [email protected] Community Forestry Resource Center

Wisconsin Family Forests

Wisconsin Family Forests is a grassroots, community-based organization for private woodland owners that focuses on strengthening local communities through their shared interest in sustainable land management. Community connections are strengthened as neighbors

work with neighbors to gain knowledge about sustainable forestry. Local resources are made available as neighbors share their forest management experiences and work together to complete joint management projects on private lands. The local WFF alliances, usually formed at the township level, are the substance of Wisconsin Family Forests. Each alliance operates independently at the local level as it focuses on issues of common interest to its own members. The sole function of WFF, Inc., the statewide organization, is to support established alliances as well as to offer assistance to landowner groups interested in forming alliances in their own communities. Thus, the focus of Wisconsin Family Forest remains at the local community level. For information on the WFF alliance nearest you or for assistance in forming an alliance in your community, contact: Wisconsin Family Forests P.O. Box 682 Wisconsin Rapids, WI 54495-0682 Phone: 715-213-1618 Email: [email protected] Internet: http://www.wisconsinfamilyforests.org/index.html

Wisconsin Woodland Owners Association (WWOA) WWOA is a nonprofit [501(c)3], educational association for private woodland owners in Wisconsin. WWOA offers year-round educational opportunities for novice and experienced private woodland owners who want to become better stewards of their woodlands. WWOA publishes the quarterly, award-winning magazine Woodland Management and sponsors workshops, conferences, field days and an annual meeting each year in September. Local WWOA chapters, located throughout Wisconsin, are a great way to learn more about local issues and meet neighboring woodland owners. WWOA also has statewide committees on Education, Legislation, Marketing, Science, and Publications to help keep members up-to-date on information in these areas.

The WWOA Foundation is developing the Seno Woodland Management Center in SE Wisconsin as an educational facility for youths and adults. WWOA works to bridge the gap between woodland owners and natural resource professionals. For a free information packet on WWOA, please contact: Wisconsin Woodland Owners Association Nancy Bozek, Executive Director PO Box 285 2000 Maria Drive Stevens Point, WI 54481-0285 Phone: 715-346-4798 Email: [email protected] Internet: http://www.wisconsinwoodlands.org

2006 Stumapage Value Estimates Wonder what standing timber is selling for? The stumpage rates developed by the DNR to calculate harvest taxes for land enrolled in the forest tax programs can give a useful estimate. Timber values for an individual's tract may vary considerably from the average prices in the table. Timber is unlike typical commodities in that quality (including color, grain pattern and defects) can vary from site to site. Each parcel also has unique logging conditions such as slope, wet soils and hauling distance that will have a bearing on value. For a more accurate appraisal of timber value on your land, work with a Cooperating Forester. Even then, competitive bidding for designated timber is the only way to get a precise value since other factors (like customers seeking specific products) will play a role in what loggers will pay.

Forestry Assistance Locator on the Internet In addition to this directory, the DNR Forestry Division offers an on-line Forestry Assistance Locator. It includes a map like the one above where you can click on a county where your land is located to view the names of DNR and Cooperating Forester that are available to help. You can use the Forestry Assistance Locator to: 1. Create a personal contact list by selecting the names of foresters you would like more

information from. You can either print your list and make the contacts yourself, or 2. Complete a message explaining the help you are seeking and have the Forestry Assistance

Locator send your request by e-mail to those on your contact list.

Beware of Timber Theft and Fraud

• Do your research. Make sure your timber is ready for harvest and that it will be cut in a sustainable manner that protects the future of the forest. Know the value and volume of your timber before you sell it.

You wouldn't sell your car or home without knowing its value... your timber is no different! Talk with a DNR Forester or hire a Cooperating Forester to set up and administer the sale for you.

• Take your time. Don't make snap decisions on the doorstep, selling to the first person offering you cash.

• Get references from other landowners that have worked with the forester or logger you are thinking of dealing with. Visit previous logging jobs if possible.

• Research logging companies or individual timber buyers by name at the Wisconsin Circuit Court's Internet access site:

• Check with Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection (DATCP). See if they have had any complaints against the individual or company. File a complaint if you are not satisfied with your logging job.

• Don’t rely on a logger-prepared contract. Get a contract that's designed to protect your interests! The WWOA sample timber sale contract is a good place to start. Review the contract BEFORE signing it.

• During the harvest, stay out of harm’s way but make yourself visible. Ask questions of the logger. Who are the equipment operators and truckers? How many loads are hauled from your property and which mills are your logs being hauled to? Be careful not to interfere with the logging operation, but your presence and interest (or oversight from a Cooperating Forester) can help assure the job is done right.

• Work with loggers who are properly trained in logging safety and Wisconsin Best Management Practices. If available in your area, consider contracting with a Wisconsin Certified Master Logger or an SFI (Sustainable Forest Initiative) qualified logger
