What can you do as a logger to help protect water quality?
The best way for you to do your part in protecting water quality is to become familiar with the BMP guidelines and to ensure that you use the proper BMPs on every job.
Best Management Practices are designed to help landowners, foresters, loggers and others protect water quality during forestry operations. The use of BMPs is voluntary in Texas, and if everyone involved implements these practices, water quality can be protected without strict regulations.
