County:	Date:	State-Owned Land No.:
The State-Owned Lands Program was established by the General Assembly to provide forest management services to state agencies that own forest lands in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Code of Virginia §10.1-1122, designates to the Virginia Department of Forestry the responsibility to manage, sell and harvest timber on state-owned lands with the assistance of the affected state agency, department or institution. The first step in managing forestland is to examine the land and develop a long-range forest management plan based on the objectives of the agency or institution and the forest’s values to the Commonwealth. The State-Owned Lands Program focuses on providing a customized forest management plan to meet the forest agency owner’s goals for each property. State-Owned Lands Plans are reviewed and updated every 10 years and the VDOF will provide a copy of the final plan to the state agency, department or institution.
