discovered this tree while teaching a tree identification class for Forestry Awareness Day in

Rapides Parish. It is an American Beech with bark

similar to an oak tree. It is so unique, there is only one other known tree with similar characteristics

in the United States. A close up of the bark can be

seen at CompassPointSystems.com

Thanks to the Louisiana Technical College – Oakdale, Forestry Technician program and the

LSU AgCenter, Baton Rouge for help with

printing this Directory.

A Message From the Louisiana State Chairman

On behalf of the 2007 Executive Committee of the Louisiana Society of

American Foresters (LASAF), I am pleased to present our effort to

publish a list of professional foresters living in Louisiana. LASAF last

published a directory of all LASAF members in 1984. For the purposes

of this directory, professional foresters are defined as those people who

successfully graduated with at least a four year degree in forestry from a

college or university having a specialized curriculum in forestry.

We decided to list all graduate foresters in this directory who submitted

information to us, as opposed to limiting the directory to Louisiana

Society of American Foresters members. We made repeated efforts to

contact foresters known to us, but not did include information from

unresponsive foresters or those who were somehow missed. We

apologize to those foresters we missed. If you qualify for inclusion in

this directory but do not appear in it, please contact us so that we can

include you in future updates.

We plan to distribute this directory to all of those foresters included in

the directory as well as to various agencies where landowners go to seek

professional forestry assistance. We also plan to publish the directory

on our website: http://lasaf.homestead.com

We hope you find this directory useful for contacting forestry

professionals in Louisiana.

Sincerely,

Steven K. Templin, A.C.F., C.F., R.F.

2007 President, Louisiana Society of American Foresters

A Message From the Executive Director

It’s been twenty years or so since a directory of foresters was published in

Louisiana. There are several issues that encouraged the SAF to invest time and

money in this task. Urban areas are merging into forest areas as many people

have chosen to buy acreage and build homes in the country. This places new

demands on forest management, especially on fire protection and forest

harvesting and regeneration. Like any construction job, forest management activities are not

pretty. Building a new forest is aesthetically costly, whether nature is the force behind the change

as with fire and hurricanes or if it is as a result of active forest management. Forest land owners

need the specialized skills of foresters to protect and restore forests whether they have come to

the forest from cities or grew up there. There have also been changes in the forest industry that

have made it more difficult to locate foresters. Industrial foresters were once active as extension

foresters, helping landowners with management of private lands in hopes that this would increase

the quality and quantity of wood available to the industry. In the past few years many of these

companies have sold their lands to management organizations that do not have all the same goals

as the industry once had. As a result foresters are managing more acres that have many different

uses. Lands are being sold for real estate development, others are in long term recreational and

hunting leases and some are still managed for wood products but foresters are not as available as

they once were for landowner assistance. This directory will help forest landowners find a forester

with the skills for which they are looking. Foresters have a great variety of skills, from knowledge

of the best varieties to plant, how to control exotic and invasive species, or how to protect

endangered species these skills are displayed in this publication. I hope the information we are

making available will be used to improve the forests and lives of the people of Louisiana.

Regards, Michael T. Goergen

SAF Code of Ethics

Preamble

Service to society is the cornerstone of any profession. The profession of forestry serves society by fostering stewardship of the world's forests. Because forests provide valuable resources and perform critical ecological functions, they are vital to the well-being of both society and the biosphere.

Members of the Society of American Foresters have a deep and enduring love for the land, and are inspired by the profession's historic traditions, such as Gifford Pinchot's utilitarianism and Aldo Leopold's ecological conscience. In their various roles as practitioners, teachers, researchers, advisers, and administrators, foresters seek to sustain and protect a variety of forest uses and attributes, such as aesthetic values, air and water quality, biodiversity, recreation, timber production, and wildlife habitat.

The purpose of this Code of Ethics is to protect and serve society by inspiring, guiding, and governing members in the conduct of their professional lives. Compliance with the code demonstrates members' respect for the land and their commitment to the long-term management of ecosystems, and ensures just and honorable professional and human relationships, mutual confidence and respect, and competent service to society.

On joining the Society of American Foresters, members assume a special responsibility to the profession and to society by promising to uphold and abide by the following:

Principles and Pledges

1. Foresters have a responsibility to manage land for both current and future generations. We pledge to practice and advocate management that will maintain the long-term capacity of the land to provide the variety of materials, uses, and values desired by landowners and society.

2. Society must respect forest landowners' rights and correspondingly, landowners have a land stewardship responsibility to

society. We pledge to practice and advocate forest management in accordance with landowner objectives and professional standards, and to advise landowners of the consequences of deviating from such standards.

3. Sound science is the foundation of the forestry profession. We pledge to strive for continuous improvement of our methods and our personal knowledge and skills; to perform only those services for which we are qualified; and in the biological, physical, and social sciences to use the most appropriate data, methods, and technology.

4. Public policy related to forests must be based on both scientific principles and societal values. We pledge to use our knowledge and skills to help formulate sound forest policies and laws; to challenge and correct untrue statements about forestry; and to foster dialogue among foresters, other professionals, landowners, and the public regarding forest policies.

5. Honest and open communication, coupled with respect for information given in confidence, is essential to good service. We pledge to always present, to the best of our ability, accurate and complete information; to indicate on whose behalf any public statements are made; to fully disclose and resolve any existing or potential conflicts of interest; and to keep proprietary information confidential unless the appropriate person authorizes its disclosure.

6. Professional and civic behavior must be based on honesty, fairness, good will, and respect for the law. We pledge to conduct ourselves in a civil and dignified manner; to respect the needs, contributions, and viewpoints of others; and to give due credit to others for their methods, ideas, or assistance.

The Society of American Foresters' Bylaws specify processes through which a member's violation of the code may lead to reprimand, censure, expulsion from the Society, or other disciplinary action. Any two persons, whether or not SAF members, may charge a member with violation of the code. Such a charge must be made in writing to the SAF President and must refer to the specific Pledges alleged to have been violated.

Why Choose a Certified Forester®? A forester is a uniquely qualified professional, with at least a bachelor's

degree in forestry. A forester learns the art and practice of forestry

through comprehensive scientific and technical coursework and practical

field experience.

The Certified Forester® program ensures that foresters meet the

profession's educational requirements, have at least five years of

professional forestry experience, adhere to standards of professional

practice, pass a rigorous competency exam, and participate in continuing

education. You can be assured you are hiring a qualified forester if you

hire a CF.

If you own or oversee forested land and have never used a forester,

consider this. A forester can help you assess the value of your forest, increase wildlife, reduce

tax liabilities, improve protection from fire, and prevent or control harmful insects and diseases.

The forester can develop a forest management plan that starts with your goals and objectives,

incorporates regulatory requirements, identifies government incentive programs for which you

may be eligible, and provides management alternatives and timeframes.

It helps ensure that your forest provides benefits for you and for future generations and better

positions you in the marketplace, potentially making or saving you money. And your forester

will be your advocate as you assess and implement the plan options.

So when you hire a forester, you can request references, review educational background, and

assess experience or simply ask if that forester has been certified by the Society of American

Foresters' Certified Forester program.
