State Forestry Rules & Regulations

Due to the difficulty in tracking harvested timber and the increased complaints of timber theft in Louisiana, the authority to establish Rules and Regulations regarding timber harvesting was given to the LDAF by the state legislature to help deter timber theft. 

With these Rules and Regulations in place the Forestry Enforcement Division has an efficient tool to track harvested timber throughout Louisiana.
