Excerpt from Recommended Best Management Practices for Forestry in Georgia
Areas adjacent to perennial (ever flowing) or intermittent (wet-weather) streams and ponds or lakes require special management in forestry operations. These zones are the prime areas where non-point source pollutants enter our water resources. They are known as Streamside Management Zones (smz). Special care and sometimes restricted activity are necessary in these areas.

Detailed explanations are provided for practices relevant to streamside management zones, stream crossings, access road construction, timber harvesting, site preparation, reforestation, forest protection through prescribed burning and fire lines, and chemical treatment using pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. A comprehensive glossary, tables, and figures further enrich the text, offering a practical guide for anyone involved in forest management.
