Index Introduction Field Trip: Issues at the Interface Exhibitors Conference Structure ... Click here to download a copy of the open and print the PDF file.) The Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI), the area where urban lands meet and interact with rural lands, presents many challenges and concerns for natural resource managers as well as its residents. Sustaining forests in this rapidly changing landscape is one of the main and most complex challenges, involving an array of issues ranging from managing growth to managing forest health. Natural resource managers are directly involved with land management, but with additional knowledge, skills, and tools they can also be active players and leaders in policy-making, land-use planning, and developing partnerships with the varied stakeholders in order to more effectively sustain our forests. The purpose of this conference is to provide current information and tools to enhance natural resource management, planning, and policy-making at the wildland-urban interface. Invited speakers will deliver overviews of major issues in four main areas related to the wildland-urban interface: Planning and Managing Growth, Human Dimensions, Conserving and Managing Forests for Ecological Services and Benefits, and Conserving and Managing Forests under Different Ownerships.

Urban Forestry Urban Community Forestry The Division provides training in all aspects ofurban forestry and arboriculture (the care and maintenance of trees). http://www.state.sd.us/doa/forestry/urban_forestry.htm
Extractions: September 26, 2002 The Division provides training in all aspects of urban forestry and arboriculture (the care and maintenance of trees). Technical assistance is provided by service foresters located throughout the state. However, we concentrate our efforts on assisting communities with the development of local community forestry programs. Local tree boards, which are a very important part of any community forestry program, provide the foundation for most of the community forestry programs in South Dakota. Tree boards whether volunteer or paid, perform a wide variety of functions. They develop local tree ordinances, prepareannual work plans, provide planting, pruning, and removal projects, and coordinate local Arbor Day Arbor Day activities. At present time, there are 53 known tree boards across the state.
Urban & Community Forestry In Oregon On these pages you will find more information about urban forestry, about the OregonDepartment of Forestry's Urban and Community Forestry Assistance program http://159.121.125.11/forasst/UF/uf.htm
Extractions: Welcome... Urban and community forestry involves the planting, care and management of the trees where we live. The trees and related vegetation in our cities are an important asset that needs to be managed in order to maintain community livability. The urban forest is the mosaic of the planted landscape and the remnant native forests left behind as our cities have developed. The health of this urban forest contributes to both the economic and the environmental well-being of our communities. On these pages you will find more information about urban forestry, about the Oregon Department of Forestry's Urban and Community Forestry Assistance program, and about how to properly plant and care for the trees in your yard, your neighborhood, or your town.

The program also provides guidance on urban forestry policy issues at the state level. What is Urban and Community Forestry? Urban and community forests are the trees, plants and associated ecosystems anywhere where people are - country roads in rural towns, new developments in the suburbs, or concrete neighborhoods in cities and old mill towns. Our landscape is a continuum from rural forest to city center. We live, work, play and learn all along this continuum. Urban and Community Forestry is Not Just about Trees.

Extractions: "FAO's work in urban and peri-urban forestry aims to integrate the environmental, social and economic role of trees and forests in an urban environment in light of the rapid urbanisation processes, migration fluxes and impact of cities on the rural environment. Efforts have been concentrated on examining the potential role of urban forestry in developing countries, on increasing awareness of the issue, on developing practical techniques, providing policy advice to city planners, and on improving documentation and overall accessibility to information on the subject."

Extractions: holistic approach to wood management TreeStations The London Tree Officers Association estimate that London generates 54,000 m of tree surgery waste per annum of which 51% is dumped and 11% burnt. Yet this wood is a renewable resource which can be put to good use. There is potential to produce a range of wood products from sawn timber to energy. In addition, if simple forestry practices are introduced to the management of urban trees, both their useful lifespan and value as timber can be increased, so contributing to local sustainability. What is a TreeStation? A TreeStation is a site where local woodland and tree managers and owners can bring their woody waste to, rather than sending it to landfill . The station will then convert th e wood into useful projects. TreeStations will have environmental, social and economic benefits, in particular they are: based around commercially viable use of local timber are a focal point, acting as a hub for users of forest products
Urban Forestry The Trees Greenways Section of the Department of Parks Recreationmanages the urban forestry program. This program includes http://www.bpr.ci.burlington.vt.us/urban_forestry.htm
Extractions: A n urban forest provides great value in many different ways, such as increased property values, savings from decreased heating and cooling costs, reduction of air pollution, and erosion control. It is estimated that a tree with a 50-year life span provides nearly $60,000 of benefit over its lifetime. Other benefits are less easily measured, but not less valuable. An urban forest provides beauty that inspires us, recreation that refreshes us, and a contact with nature that lifts our spirits. The aesthetic and inspirational value of an urban forest is incalculable. Burlington's urban forest, a mosaic of planted landscapes and native plants and forest, is a reflection of the city's health, well being, and livability. It is an important part of Burlington's character, giving the City a special sense of place. The City of Burlington has received the 'Tree City USA' award from the National Arbor Day Foundation since 1991. Branch Out Burlington!
