Land Board Approves Projects

HELENA, Mont. — Montana’s State Board of Land Commissioners, also known state land board, approved projects on Monday, that are estimated to generate more than $750,000 in revenue for Montana’s state trusts, with over $600,000 dedicated to supporting the state’s K–12 schools.
The Land Board approved four western Montana timber projects that will provide important revenue for Montana’s state trusts while supporting timber professionals and strengthening local economies. The timber sales are expected to deliver hundreds of thousands of dollars for Montana’s trust beneficiaries, including schools across the state.
“These timber sales show how we can responsibly manage our forests while providing real economic benefits for Montana families and classrooms,” said Montana Secretary of State and member of the land commission, Christi Jacobsen. “I’m grateful for the timber professionals who do this work and proud to stand with them.”
