The Warehouse Group

In many forested areas there are areas that are unproductive of trees (often of anything!). There are mined areas, soil borrow areas, dry ridges, and even areas with toxic materials.

In the new world of e-commerce it seems that pleasing surroundings for visiting customers may not be needed. It the appearances of Amazon.com, for example, the book seller needs only a warehouse, willing workers, and connections to transportation systems for personnel as well as shipping products from the site.

Some areas of the state are unsuitable for urban development and high human populations but may serve well as places for the new warehouses for e-commerce. Some land, removed from intensive forest-related benefit production, may serve.

This Group studies the needs of clients, used GIS to find sites that meet the criteria of the client, and arrange for land use, construction, etc. to continue to achieve the objectives of lasting Forests and to increase the R score.
