An act relating to the regulation of forestry under Act 250

Summary

The bill narrows Vermont’s Act 250 environmental review to only the parts of a primarily forested parcel that are used for development, leaving the rest unregulated under that law. It also removes Act 250 from log and pulp concentration yards and from logging activities below 2,500 feet, as long as those activities do not violate any existing Act 250 permit conditions. The changes aim to reduce regulatory burden on forestry operations while preserving water‑quality protections.
