New forest code will give credentials to regional authorities
New forest code will give credentials to regional authorities for forest husbandry, usage, management and protection, as the main forester of Forest agency of Pskov region Mikhail Astafurov told to PIA.
As he says the new law passes forests to regional governmentals in order to improve forest management, because every region knows its problems better. There is big work to put new code in practice and reorganise the forestry according to new guidelines. In Pskov region the state office "Pskovprirodresurs" will join Forest agency. Astafurov thinks that Pskov forestry will benefeit from new code, but "time will show".
