Timber Harvesting
The role our group played for this assignment was Land Managers. We decided on the name JJDR, L.L.C. as our company name. We felt this best represented all of us, as it is the first letter of each of our first names.
We, as JJDR L.L.C., feel that the development should be set at least 200 feet from any water sources such as streams, rivers, or lakes. We feel this way because the development will increase the surface water and nutrients put in the water. By setting the buildings back at least 200 feet will decrease the amount of nutrients let off in the water, therefore aquatic life will not suffer from too many nutrients in the water. The excess nutrients cause an increase in death and illnesses in the fish and other aquatic life.
We agree that the development would be beneficial to the community and it’s economy. But, we also feel that if the development were to come to reality, there would need to be very strict guidelines. In order to keep the species of birds intact, there would need to be a section of the land that would not allowed to be developed. This would ensure the survial of the bird life and that bird watchers could still participate in birdwatching.
Another very strict guideline would be, as stated above, any buildings or structures will have to be at least 200 feet from any and all bodies of water, including streams, rivers, and/or lakes. This will ensure the quality of the aquatic life will be preserved. The amount of water drainage will be kept to a minimum. This guideline will be very strictly enforced, with inspections done every six months. If any guidelines are broken, there will be heavy citations and fines given to the businesses and/or land owners.
In conclusion, we, the members of JJDR, L.L.C, will give our consent to the development and/or selling of the 150,000 acres of the 250,000 proposed acres. The sale and/or development of this land will have to meet very strong criteria and anyone involved will have to be

    They tried to create the “perfect city” and compared to many places and cities in The United States, The City of Kelsey may be as perfect as it gets. Unfortunately, as perfect and wonderful as The City of Kelsey may sound, it is a false perception, for no place is perfect. There have been numerous reports from residents in the city, stating that after large amounts of rainfall that, they see a sheen over the Kelsey River. As much as the community pretends to care about their land and the people on it, nothing has been done to further the investigation of this “sheen.” The scariest part of this to me is that a large source of the community’s drinking water comes from this river and even though there is not a lot of boating in the river, there is a lot of fishing. What if people are eating these fish and how can they be sure they are safe? With all the Farmer’s Markets and community recreations that are taking place within the city, that money should be raised to test the river waters and make sure that the people of Kelsey are safe and happy (Apollo Group, Inc, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008…

    The navy coped with masts and timber shortages in the 1770s, 1803, and 1808 by importing wood products from other sources and searching for new sources. As the chief causes of these three timber shortages were completely different, the regions where the navy focused on as the source of woods were different in each case. In the 1770s, the cause of the shortage was the loss of the preliminary source of wood products in North America. In 1803, the failure to manage the dockyards and the outbreak of war caused the timber shortage. Then, the deficiency in 1808 resulted from the difficulty in importing goods from the Baltic areas, which were the main sources of masts and timber.…

    I believe that the Pike Island project satisfies most requirements of the proposal. Their projects illustrated their plan clearly. At the beginning, they explained what materials they would need for the construction, which was the wood. The wood will come from the trees, but they were also concerned about potential damages for the local community, because the construction process may generates the contaminated water. It is necessary to analyze what will happen, if the government accept the project. Undoubtedly, their project is thoughtful, ensuring the accuracy and feasibility of the proposal and avoiding the side effects bringing underestimated damages.…
