UNSPSC 70151900: Forestry resources

UNSPSC 70151900 Forestry resources is a Class code covering urban tree planting, maintenance, and community engagement work; carbon offset assessment and biomass utilization; and specialized forestry services like mulching on public lands. State and local governments under this code contract with forestry firms and environmental consulting practices to expand urban canopy, manage invasive species, conduct watershed and environmental planning, and evaluate carbon sequestration opportunity on managed lands. City parks and recreation departments, county natural resource agencies, and state forestry or environmental departments are the primary issuing bodies, with repeat activity from the City of Atlanta and Florida state agencies.
