Texas A&M Forest Service的动态

Texas A&M Forest Service recently investigated a timber theft complaint, resulting in the recovery of $50,240 to a group of Panola County landowners for unpaid timber sales. The landowners entered a timber sale agreement with a timber harvesting company and were paid $21,167 for their timber, which they felt was a significantly low price based on the terms in the harvesting contract compared to the volume of timber harvested and hauled from the tract. The landowners contacted the timber theft hotline, initiating an investigation by our investigators. To prevent timber theft, landowners should visit their property frequently, have someone they know and trust report any cutting on their land immediately, never sign a contact without checking several references of the buyer, insist on getting bids for the timber, mark all property lines, use trail/deer cameras on the property, and always hold their timber contractor to the agreed upon term. ??Timber theft hotline: 1-800-364-3470 ??Read more: https://ow.ly/1bXQ50VcJcO
