UNSPSC 70151904: Silviculture

UNSPSC 70151904 Silviculture is a Commodity code that covers urban forestry, tree planting and maintenance, forest carbon assessment, watershed management planning, and biomass utilization projects being procured by state departments, county governments, and municipalities across the Southeast and West. State and local buyers under this code are primarily purchasing community-based tree planting and maintenance services (including young tree pruning and invasive plant removal), environmental education and workforce development programming tied to urban forest expansion, technical consulting for watershed and floodplain analysis supporting stormwater and flood mitigation, forest carbon offset feasibility analysis, and carbon removal through woody biomass utilization pathways. The issuing bodies include city departments of parks and recreation (Atlanta), state natural resource agencies (Washington DNR), county governments (Hillsborough County, Boulder County), and municipal planning offices (St. Cloud, Florida).
