Overview
The U.S. Forest Service sustains the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and
grasslands; directly manages 193 million acres of national forests and grasslands; provides States, tribes,
and private forest landowners with technical and financial assistance; and conducts innovative research on
sustaining forest resources for future generations.
The fiscal year (FY) 2011 President’s budget request for the Forest Service totals $5.38 billion in
discretionary appropriations, a $23 million program increase over the FY 2010 enacted level. This budget
reflects our Nation’s highest priorities, acts to save and create new jobs, and lays a new foundation of
economic growth, especially in rural areas.
The FY 2011 budget for the Forest Service supports the Administration’s priorities for maintaining and
enhancing the resiliency and productivity of America’s forests through five key initiatives: Restoring and
Sustaining Forest Landscapes; Protecting and Enhancing Water Resources and Watershed Health;
Making Landscapes More Resilient to Climate Change; Responsibly Budgeting for Wildfire; and
Creating Jobs and Sustainable Communities.
The budget includes an increase of $38 million for pay and inflation. This will allow the Forest Service to
pay for the civilian pay raise and other pay cost increases, such as the increase in retirement and other
employee benefits tied to salary levels. Without this increase, the Forest Service would still need to fund
the pay increase of its permanent workforce, but would do so by curtailing other programs, such as hiring
fewer seasonal employees, not filling critical vacancies, or conducting less work through contractors,
grants, or agreements.
A healthy and prosperous America relies on healthy forests and grasslands and the benefits they provide:
clean air and water, carbon storage, renewable energy, food and fiber, fertile soils, wildlife habitat, and
recreation opportunities. The threats facing our lands and natural resources – climate change, increasing
wildfires, and development pressures – do not stop at ownership boundaries. Healthy forests and
grasslands are elements of integrated landscapes that need to be restored, conserved, and managed across
all land, from remote wildlands to urban centers.
Fully developing and implementing a shared vision for America’s Forests will require collaboration and
input from a diverse coalition of partners and stakeholders. The FY 2011 budget for the Forest Service
supports the Administration’s priorities for maintaining and enhancing the resiliency and productivity of
America’s forests through five central objectives:
These objectives are interconnected and complementary, so on-the-ground projects will incorporate and
achieve strategic actions from multiple objectives, using an all-lands approach.
When the health and integrity of our lands deteriorate, so do the environmental, economic, and social
benefits they provide, with enormous impacts on drinking water, carbon emissions, climate, wildlife,
recreation, community health, and prosperity. To maintain these vital functions, the Forest Service will
work with partners to restore and sustain forest landscapes and provide incentives to prevent the loss of
private forests and other working lands to development. This budget request supports the Secretary’s
vision of implementing an all-lands restoration framework and will focus much of the Agency’s work in
high-priority watersheds and landscapes. The Forest Service is poised to make strong advances toward
sustaining Nation’s most critical forests and grasslands.
The Forest Service proposes a restructuring of the Agency budget to enable high priority restoration work
to occur. A new budget line item, Integrated Resource Restoration, is proposed, which will combine the
Forest Products, Vegetation and Watershed Management, and Wildlife and Fisheries Management line
items from FY 2010. The FY 2011 budget proposes directing $694 million to Integrated Resource
Restoration, allowing the agency to refocus its resources on mitigating threats to ecosystem sustainability
and resiliency, including climate change, increased wildfires, and disease and insect infestations. This
change will enhance the agency’s ability to provide strong accountability for the use of stewardship
contracting to meet restoration objectives, and will reinforce the cultural transition of the agency to using
forest product removal for restoration purposes.
Using the authorities provided through the Forest Landscape Restoration Title of the Omnibus Public
Land Management Act of 2009 (16 U.S.C. 7303), the Forest Service proposes directing $40 million to the
Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Fund, the full amount authorized by law. Through close
coordination with other landowners, the Forest Service will encourage collaborative solutions at the
landscape scale. The Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program will leverage local resources
with national and private resources; increase effectiveness of wildfire management actions, including
through reestablishing natural fire regimes and reducing the risk of uncharacteristic wildfire; demonstrate
the use of ecological restoration to achieve watershed health objectives; and encourage utilization of
forest restoration by-products to offset treatment costs and benefit local rural economies.
The Forest Service is proposing to invest $50 million to improve watershed conditions through the new
Priority Watersheds and Job Stabilization initiative as part of the Integrated Resource Restoration budget
line item in the National Forest System Appropriation. Under this initiative, priority watersheds will be
identified through a rapid watershed assessment. Large-scale (greater than 10,000 acres) watershed
restoration projects within these priority watersheds will be selected through a national prioritized process
which favors projects that demonstrate coordination with other Federal and State land management
agencies or are in areas identified in State Forest Assessments; improve watershed function and health;
create jobs or will contribute to job stability; and create or maintain biomass or renewable energy
development. Restoration projects will clearly track accomplishments by evaluating change in watershed
condition and counting the number of jobs created.
In FY 2010, regional offices, research stations, the Northeastern Area, and the International Institute of
Tropical Forestry are working with program staffs in the Chief’s Office to develop plans to integrate our
research, management, and landowner assistance programs to address climate change. This effort
involves collaboration with other Federal, State, Tribal, and private landowners and communities. These
plans will build on the long Forest Service history of managing ecosystems to maintain and enhance their
resilience to stress. A number of forests have already established climate change adaptation plans. In FY
2011, the Forest Service will continue these efforts, and the application of science-based tools built on
more than 20 years of climate change research.
The agency will submit a report to Congress describing in detail all obligations and expenditures,
domestic and international, for climate change programs and activities in fiscal year 2009 and fiscal year
2010. The report will be submitted to the Appropriations Committees of both the House and the Senate,
120 days after the President’s Budget Justification is submitted to Congress as directed in the FY 2010
appropriations bill.
In recognition that $886 million may not be sufficient if the fire season is particularly long or severe, a
$282 million discretionary Presidential Wildland Fire Contingency Reserve for fighting catastrophic
wildfires is also proposed. Funds in the Contingency Reserve would be in a separate Treasury account,
available to the Forest Service subject to depletion of the Suppression account and FLAME Act Fund, and
after the issuance of a Presidential finding that the funds are necessary. This three-tiered system will
provide adequate funding for fire suppression and allow for other critical Forest Service activities to
continue while reducing the likelihood of disruptive transfers from non-fire accounts.
This budget request also properly realigns Preparedness and Suppression funding by shifting funds from
the Suppression account into Preparedness. This shift is based on a realignment of the costs that have
been shifted into the Suppression account during the past 6 years; FY 2005 – FY 2010. These program
readiness costs have been shifted back into the Preparedness account resulting in an increased
Preparedness request and a decreased Suppression request with no net change in resource availability
from FY 2010. This ensures that preparedness costs are fully identified and separate from the costs of fire
suppression.
In FY 2011, the Forest Service proposes $349 million to reduce hazardous fuels on approximately 1.6
million acres of national forest and adjacent lands, focusing on treating acres in the wildland urban
interface (WUI), with Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs) identifying areas to be treated. The
strategy of focusing on high priority fuels within the WUI will help deter large, destructive, and costly
wildfires, thereby protecting communities invested in implementing local solutions to protection against
fire, reducing safety risks to firefighters and the public and reducing wildfire suppression costs. In FY
2011, all Hazardous Fuels funds will be allocated to the regions using a newly modified Hazardous Fuels
Prioritization Allocation System (HFPAS), which will rank and prioritize hazardous fuels projects
nationally. Prioritizations will be based on factors such as fire potential, values at risk, efficiency of
treatments, and effectiveness of treatments with an emphasis and focus on WUI.
The Forest Service will continue to deploy analytic support tools to improve fire incident and program
decision-making, and agency accountability. A number of Wildland Fire Decision Support Systems (such
as FSPro, which models fire behavior, and RAVAR, which models values at risk from fire) provide real-
time support to fire managers implementing Risk-Informed Management. These efforts are coupled with
program reforms such as strategic and operational protocols, improved oversight, and use of a risk
management framework that ensure fire management resources are appropriately focused. The Forest
Service, in collaboration with the Department of the Interior, is updating the fire planning and budget
analysis process through the Fire Program Analysis system. In summary, the budget promotes safe, cost-
effective and accountable outcomes from investments made in managing fire on landscapes.
The 2011 President’s Budget builds off of the investments made through the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). The ARRA provided $1.15 billion to the Forest Service over two
years in order to create jobs and promote economic recovery, especially to those areas which the
recession has impacted most. As of the end of calendar year 2009, the Forest Service has announced more
than 500 projects in 47 states, and these are estimated to create over 20,000 new private sector jobs across
the Country. Many of the projects address high-priority forestry needs, such as fuels and forest health
treatments and biomass utilization. Our involvement has helped to stimulate collaborative efforts related
to restoration, climate change, fire and fuels, and landscape-scale conservation.
Conclusion
The Forest Service presents its FY 2011 budget positioned to fulfill its mission of restoring and sustaining
the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present
and future generations. The budget supports responsible budgeting for wildfires; reducing the
maintenance backlog of facilities, roads, and trails on National Forest System lands; recovering the
economy, conserving new lands, and responding to climate change. This suite of monetary and
management foci enable the Forest Service to address challenges while continuing to conduct research,
provide assistance to landowners and resource managers, and steward national forests and grasslands.
Sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of
present and future generations.
This mission stems from the relationship between the American people and their natural resource
heritage. This relationship is characterized by the principles of sustaining our natural resources for future
generations, fostering personal and community well-being, and providing economic wealth for the
Nation.
The Forest Service Strategic Plan for FY 2007 – 2012 outlines the agency’s over-arching goals and
objectives. The seven strategic goals follow:
Goal 1. Restore, Sustain, and Enhance the Nation’s Forests and Grasslands
Goal 7. Provide Science-Based Applications and Tools for Sustainable Natural Resources
Management
Strategic objectives in each goal (outlined in the Strategic Plan and Performance Management Chapter of
the Budget Justification) include indicators of agency performance, with baselines and FY 2012 targets.
Means and strategies by which agency programs accomplish strategic goals and objectives are provided.
Foundational business management standards are also documented.
The Chief of the Forest Service is a career Federal employee who oversees the entire agency. The Chief
reports to the Under Secretary for Natural Resources and Environment in the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA), an appointee of the President confirmed by the Senate. The Chief’s staff provides
broad policy and direction for the agency, works with the Administration to develop a budget to submit to
Congress, provides information to Congress on accomplishments, and monitors activities of the agency.
There are four deputy chiefs for the following areas: National Forest System; State and Private Forestry;
Research and Development; and Business Operations.
The Forest Service organization includes ranger districts, national forests, and regions; research stations
and research work units; and the Northeastern Area Office for State and Private Forestry. Each level has
responsibility for a variety of functions.
Ranger District: The Forest Service has more than 600 ranger districts. Each district has a staff of 10 to
100 people under the direction of a district ranger, a line officer who reports to a forest supervisor. The
districts vary in size from 50,000 acres to more than 1 million acres. Most on-the-ground activities occur
on ranger districts, including trail construction and maintenance, operation of campgrounds, and
management of vegetation and wildlife habitat.
National Forest: The Forest Service oversees 155 national forests and 20 grasslands. Each administrative
unit is typically comprised of several ranger districts, under the overall direction of a forest supervisor.
Within the supervisor's office, the staff coordinates activities among districts, allocates the budget, and
provides technical support to each district. Forest supervisors are line officers and report to regional
foresters.
Region: The Forest Service has nine regions, each encompassing a broad geographic area, and headed by
a regional forester who reports directly to the Chief. The regional forester has broad responsibility for
coordinating activities among the various forests within the region, for providing overall leadership for
regional natural resource and social programs, and for coordinating regional land use planning.
Northeastern Area: The Northeastern Area Office for State and Private Forestry includes three field
offices and Grey Towers Historic Site. The area director, like regional foresters, reports directly to the
Chief. The area director leads and helps support sustainable forest management and use across the
landscape to provide benefits to the people of the 20 Northeastern and Midwestern States and the District
of Columbia.
Research Stations and Research Work Units: The Forest Service’s Research and Development
organization includes five research stations, the Forest Products Laboratory, and the International Institute
of Tropical Forestry. Station directors, like regional foresters, report to the Chief. Research stations
include Northern, Pacific Northwest, Pacific Southwest, Rocky Mountain, and Southern. There are
approximately 500 scientists located at 67 sites throughout the United States.
Centralized Business Services: The Agency centralized three major functional areas: Budget and
Finance (B&F), Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), and Human Capital Management
(HCM). Most employees in B&F and HCM are located at the Albuquerque Service Center (ASC).
Some OCIO employees are also located in Albuquerque but most are housed in locations across the
country.
