The secretary for energy and environment, or his authorized agent, may, upon
request, and whenever he deems it essential to the best interests of the people of the
Commonwealth, cooperate with counties, cities, corporations, institutions or
individuals in preparing plans for the protection, management and replacement of
trees, woodlands and timber tracts, under an agreement that the parties obtaining
such assistance pay at least the field expenses of the men employed in preparing
said plans. Services rendered under this cooperative plan may include the
designation of trees for sale or removal, measuring or estimating the commercial
volume contained in the trees designated, marketing advice, and general forestry
advice concerning the management of the landowner's forest.
When services are rendered under this section, the landowner or his agent, upon
presentation of a statement, shall pay to the Energy and Environment Cabinet,
within thirty (30) days of receipt of the statement, the amount due. The amounts so
collected by the Energy and Environment Cabinet shall be paid into the State
Treasury and shall be credited to a special fund for forest management and
marketing, and, with such other funds as may be appropriated by the General
Assembly, or contributed by the United States or any governmental or private
agency for such purposes, shall be used and disbursed by the Energy and
Environment Cabinet for such purpose.
