CHEYENNE, Wyo – As part of its ongoing efforts to better serve the public, the Bureau of Land Management Wyoming will sell firewood permits online from several of its field offices beginning May 2020.
Permits are available for purchase on lands managed by the Cody, Buffalo, Kemmerer, Newcastle, Pinedale, Rawlins, Rock Springs and Worland Field Offices. The Lander Field Office will begin selling permits online on June 15, 2020.
Permits cost between $5 and $7.50 per cord depending on the office. Permits for firewood and for other forest products can still be purchased at all BLM field offices in the state.
You can purchase a permit by going to https://forestproducts.blm.gov/ .
“The BLM works to maintain healthy forests and woodlands that include abundant opportunities for harvest and use of forest products,” said Joshua Jackson, BLM Wyoming forester. “By making firewood permits available online, we continue to look for ways to make buying permits easier for the public.”
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
