We are building a better world, one tree at a time. Each seedling supports clean water, captures carbon, creates wildlife habitat, and fuels the forest economy. And none of it happens by accident.
Our working forests are carefully managed to ensure a reliable and renewable supply of wood for various purposes, including lumber, energy, paper, and countless everyday products.
Following passage of the Clean Water Act in 1972, many states adopted forest management guidelines intended to reduce forestry’s negative effects on waters. At the time, there was little research showing whether these new guidelines worked.
In June 2024, PotlatchDeltic and Central Arkansas Water (CAW) completed the purchase and sale of 2,047 acres of forestland in the Lake Maumelle watershed, a vital source of drinking water for the City of Little Rock and surrounding communities.

Tree planting is one of the most important investments a timberland company undertakes, setting the stage for the future and ensuring all the benefits that forests provide are perpetuated.
PotlatchDeltic utilizes a comprehensive timberland environmental management system (EMS) which focuses on continual improvement in achieving our sustainable forest management objectives.
Forestry best management practices (BMPs) are voluntary practices that forestry professionals follow to protect water quality in the areas that they manage.
Our working forests are carefully managed to ensure a reliable and renewable supply of wood for various purposes, including lumber, energy, paper, and countless everyday products.
In addition to SMZs, proper design and construction of logging roads and use of logging methods and equipment that protect water quality are key components of our BMP implementation program in our Environmental Management System.
