Abstract:

The federal government owns over 400,000 acres in the North Carolina mountains. The largest single unit, 131,000 acres is in the Nantahala National Forest. The U.S. Forest Service has the responsibility of developing and administering this vast acreage. Prevost discusses what the forestry program seeks to accomplish.
