From the President's Desk
Greetings to all of you from the Southern Forestry Consultants family and family of companies. We hope you are having a wonderful Spring. The woods are bursting with activity, as animals and plants go through the traditional rituals of birth and re-growth. The welcome rains have given a vibrant feel to everything natural, reminding us of just how important the balance of nature is.

Along with the renewal of spirit and life in the natural world this time of year comes a seemingly endless number of meetings and conferences associated with politics, associations, and academia. We have urged your participation through the years, in this newsletter and by other means, in the political process by whatever means you are comfortable with and it is no less important now
than ever before. As I compose this article I am leaving for a symposium entitled “Sustaining Family Forests”, and would like to emphasize to you how important this topic is. The legacy of family forests is swiftly disappearing as the “me” generation plots its next strategy to squeeze every last nickel out of every last acre of land left to their stewardship, and as the federal government continues its blind leading the blind policy of estate tax structure that forces many to liquidate their holdings upon the passing of the patriarch of the family. Simply put, we need PERMANENT tax relief so that heirs are assured that the family’s land and timber assets are not unfairly treated at the time of death and so managers of the assets can manage for the long term and not (just) the short term. Timberland assets are far different than other capital assets in that they are not as liquid, they take longer to mature, and they do in fact provide certain societal benefits that are more important now than ever before (e.g. clean air, clean water, green space, etc.). Please remember whenever you
contact your elected representatives to mention this important issue as it simply spans generations of all Americans.

We are constantly planning for timber sales, herbicide applications, reforestation and other timber stand improvement activities, so please contact one of our foresters or wildlife biologists if you have any questions regarding your assets. We are very busy and sometimes get behind staying in touch, but we always welcome your questions and comments and look forward to a healthy discussion about improving the productivity of your stand of trees. We
truly are grateful to have the opportunity to provide our services to you, and want very much to continue our relationship for years to come.

Michael Dooner, President
