USDA-Forest Service's Appalachian Oak Program

As the USDA-Forest Service moves forward into the 21st century, the agency is operating under a new natural resource agenda recently outlined by Chief Mike Dombeck. The primary thrust of the new agenda is restoring and maintaining forest health to provide for sustainability of ecosystems to meet the long term needs of the American public. To support this agenda, the Region 8 Genetic Resource Management Program will initiate an artificial regeneration program for northern red oak and white oak in the Southern Appalachian Mountains.
