RE: For the forrestry/conservation experts
Just got off the phone with the local agent and got my answer.
They do intend to take out every cedar tree on the property to restore a glade/savannah habitat. They will also continue to control burn the area on an annual to semi-annual basis to keep them from returning.
He provided a lot more informationand offered to call in advance of the controlled burns so we could plan around them.
It sounded like they were going to be doing a lot of this statewide. They had had aburning program for several years, but it had taken a backseat lately. Once they stopped burning, the cedars were the first to take hold of those areas.
