Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to reduce the risk of wildland fires, many fed. land mgrs. -- incl. the Forest Serv. & the BLM -- are placing greater emphasis on thinning forests & rangelands to help reduce the buildup of potentially hazardous fuels. These thinning efforts generate considerable quantities of woody material, incl. many smaller trees, limbs, & brush -- referred to as woody biomass -- that currently have little or no commercial value. This report determines: which agencies are involved in efforts to promote the use of woody biomass, & actions they are undertaking; how these agencies are coordinating their activities; & what agencies see as obstacles to increasing the use of woody biomass, & the extent to which they are addressing these obstacles.

Book excerpt: The fed. gov't. is placing greater emphasis on thinning vegetation on public lands to reduce the risk of fire. To defray the cost of thinning efforts, it also is seeking to stimulate a market for the resulting material, including the smaller trees, limbs, & brush -- referred to as woody biomass (WB) -- that traditionally have had little or no commercial value. The increased use of WB faces obstacles, including the high cost of harvesting & transporting it & an unpredictable supply in some locations. This report: (1) identifies key factors facilitating the use of WB among selected users; (2) identifies challenges these users have faced in using WB; & (3) discusses any insights that these findings may offer for promoting greater use of WB.

Book excerpt: The federal government is placing greater emphasis on thinning vegetation on public lands to reduce the risk of wildland fire. To help defray the cost of thinning efforts, it also is seeking to stimulate a market for the resulting material, including the smaller trees, limbs, and brush-referred to as woody biomass-that traditionally have had little or no commercial value. As GAO has reported in the past, the increased use of woody biomass faces obstacles, including the high cost of harvesting and transporting it and an unpredictable supply in some locations. Nevertheless, some entities, such as schools and businesses, are utilizing the material, potentially offering insights for broadening its use. GAO agreed to (1) identify key factors facilitating the use of woody biomass among selected users, (2) identify challenges these users have faced in using woody biomass, and (3) discuss any insights that these findings may offer for promoting greater use of woody biomass. In responding to a draft of this report, the Departments of Agriculture, Energy, and the Interior all generally agreed with
