Forest Resources & Practices

The Division is responsible for making sure that the Alaska Forest Resources and Practices Act (FRPA, AS 41.17) is implemented and enforced. FRPA governs how timber access, harvesting, and reforestation occur on State, private, and municipal land. The Act ensures that both the timber and commercial fishing industries can continue to provide long-term jobs.
