Dear Meredith,
Attached please find the Notification of Timber Harvest Form and a Timber Harvest Map
regarding a project Hull Forest Products, Inc. plans to conduct on approximately 30 of the 33.76
acres on property south of Turner Road in Montville and 25 of 26.00 acres west of Vauxhall
Street Extension in Waterford. This operation is a selection with group selection timber harvest.
The property boundaries have been identified in with pink ribbon and the trees to be harvested
have been marked with blue paint marks at eye level and on the stump. This harvest will be
conducted as a conventional cut to length operation where the marked trees will be felled and a
forwarder and/or skidder will be used to transport the merchantable logs to a landing area
proposed by the landowner’s house where they will be hauled off site via log truck. The tops of
the trees and residual branches will be slashed in place to within three feet of the forest floor.
There are 2-3 drainage crossings and 1 wetland crossing associated with this harvest which will
be identified in the field with four blue paint dots. Temporary timber bridges and/or corduroy
will be installed as needed to stabilize the crossings during the operation, It is estimated 4
months of good working weather will be required to complete this project.
We understand the sensitivity of this site and all Best Management Practices regarding Timber
Harvesting as adopted by the CT DEEP will be strictly adhered to. It is our understanding that
this type of agricultural activity is permitted as a Use of Right and hope that upon your review
you will find the same. Please contact me if there is any other information you may need or if
you would like to visit the site together.
Respectfully Submitted,
