Tract Map

Build a retain, access, water, treatment and crossing map that travels with the lead.

Project step 01 · Preharvest Map

Build a tract map that distinguishes retain, treat and avoid

A map makes the landowner's purpose and water protection visible to the person evaluating the work.

Scope notePlan an SMZ along covered water and select its treatment for the site; 50 feet is general guidance, not a universal statutory minimum.

  • Property and access boundaries
  • Purpose/end-use zones
  • Healthy trees or buffers to retain
  • Streams, waterbodies, wet ground and SMZ
  • Roads, landings and crossings
  • Mulch, hand-treat, avoid and follow-up zones

One-page PDF-style brief and structured fields sent with the lead.

Link to the NC Forest Service preharvest planning tool as an additional resource, without representing this site's sketch as the official tool.

The map is not a survey, timber plan, wetland delineation or permit.
