Description

Members of the S.C. General Assembly requested the Legislative Audit Council to review the S.C. Department of Natural Resources’ forestry management practices conducted on lands owned by the agency. Our objectives for this review were to: Report the amount of land owned by the Department of Natural Resources, in terms of acreage. Determine if DNR can provide an estimate of the fair market value of the timber on these lands in terms of acreage and stumpage value. Report the volume of timber sold each year for the past ten years, along with revenue realized by DNR from the sale of timber. Determine whether lands not considered to be an archaeological site or a highly-sensitive plant or animal community are being managed for sustainable multiple-use forestry production.
