Northeastern Forest Soils Conference 2005 Report

Northeast Forest Soils Conference a Success

The 2005 Northeast Forest Soils Conference was held in southern West Virginia July 18th through July 21st, 2005.   This year’s conference was a very successful cooperative effort between the US Forest Service, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), and the coal industry.  Participants had the unique opportunity to visit active and reclaimed mountaintop removal mines on private company land, as well as look at many soil profiles, on both reclaimed and native soils, see firsthand the effects of wildfire on southern West Virginia forests, and learn about the local history of the area.
