USFS — U.S. Forest Service
Parent: U.S. Department of Agriculture. Domains in this note: fs.usda.gov, usda.gov.
What they regulate
The Forest Service (USDA) manages national forests and grasslands, including timber sales and special-use authorizations. Timber and land desks still need correct contracts, state rules, and title work. Indexed ≠ endorsed.
Always prefer the live .gov site over a third-party mirror. Index ≠ endorsement.
How to verify
- Forest Service home — National forests, grasslands, and timber/special-use programs — not a state timber-broker licence.
- Timber / lands context — Prefer live fs.usda.gov; BLM manages many Interior public lands separately.
