Forest Preservation Law

The Forest Preservation Law is a regulation designed to protect forests from being cleared for development and other uses. In the context of real estate, it restricts landowners from removing trees or altering significant forested areas without permission, ensuring that important ecosystems and natural habitats are preserved. This law balances the need for development with environmental protection, promoting sustainable land use practices. It may require developers to demonstrate how their projects will minimize harm to forests, contributing to conservation efforts while allowing for responsible growth.
