Something to Think About
Tree farmers and other forest owners are required to maintain a two-hundred-foot forest greenbelt.
That is, they cannot cut or harvest trees from within 200-feet of a river, stream, or other wetland area.
Developers, on the other hand, are free to buy the land from the forest owner, and clearcut up to within 30-feet of the "protected" wetland.
Such is the power of asphalt and concrete.
