Forest Legacy Program (FLP)
US Forest Service program in partnership with North Carolina complements private, Federal and State programs focused on the protection of privately owned forest lands through conservation agreements. Participants may be eligible for up to 75% of costs associated with projects as well as potential tax reductions. The property must be in a designated Forest Legacy Area to qualify.
Forest Stewardship Program (FSP)
A US Forest Service program provides technical assistance to non-industrial private forest (NIPF) owners to encourage and enable active long-term forest management. Primary focus is given to the development of comprehensive, multi-resource management plans that provide landowners information needed to manage their forests for a variety of products and services.
Healthy Forest Reserve Program (HFRP)
Administered by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), this program provides landowners with 10-year restoration agreements and 30-year or permanent easements for specific conservation actions. Land enrolled in HFRP easements must be privately owned or owned by Indian tribes and restore, enhance or measurably increase the recovery of threatened or endangered species, improve biological diversity or increase carbon storage.
