Abstract

Forest managers, loggers, land-use planners, and other decision makers need an understanding of estimating the cost of protecting wetlands using cable logging systems to harvest timber products. Results suggest that protection costs can range from $244.75 to $489.50 per acre depending on the degree of protection desired.
