DNR has an annual operating budget of approximately $245 million and has more than 1,400 permanent employees with 550 additional staff hired during the summer fire season.   Each year, state trust forest, range, commercial, agricultural and aquatic lands generate more than $300 million for public schools, state institutions, county services and aquatic restoration. As stewards of these lands, DNR manages them to also provide the state with fish and wildlife habitat, clean and abundant water and public access to outdoor recreation.   DNR also: Is the state’s wildfire fighting force, protecting communities against wildfire using firefighting crews and aviation resources.

Monitors geologic hazards, including earthquakes and tsunamis.   Washington’s public lands are a legacy that provides Washington State citizens with enormous environmental, recreational, and economic benefit.   Washington’s Trust Lands DNR manages 3 million acres of trust lands to provide sustainable revenue for county services and statewide construction of public schools, universities, and other state institutions. Revenue is produced on state trust lands from the harvesting of timber and forest products, leasing agricultural and grazing lands, commercial leases, mineral leases and other activities. Trust lands are simultaneously managed to provide habitat for many native plant and animal species. They also protect clean and abundant water, while offering public recreation opportunities statewide.   Managing Aquatic Lands DNR is steward of more than 2.6 million acres of aquatic lands—beaches and tidelands under Puget Sound, the coast, and navigable lakes and rivers. DNR manages these submerged lands to protect fish and other wildlife while also providing commerce, navigation and public access. Revenue is generated by selling geoducks and leasing aquatic lands for marinas, ports and other uses. In addition to protecting and restoring aquatic resources, aquatic revenues help pay for local projects that create public access to aquatic lands.         Protecting Forests and Public Resources DNR administers the state’s forest practice rules which are developed by the state Forest Practices Board. These rules guide logging, road construction, brush control and other work in the woods on about 12 million acres of state and privately owned forestlands. DNR provides incentives to landowners and loggers so their activities support industry without damaging public resources, such as fish and wildlife, water quality and capital improvements.   Fighting, Preventing and Preparing for Wildfires DNR is the state’s wildfire fighting force, with more than 600 professional firefighters who fight wildfires on about 13 million acres of private and state-owned forestlands.

Expand renewable energy resources on state lands, address the challenges of climate change, and support rural economic opportunities that will increase revenues on state lands while increasing opportunities in our rural communities. Work with the Forest Practices Board, which sets regulations concerning private timber harvests, forest road building, and other forest operations that are designed to protect public resources including water, fish, and wildlife, while maintaining a viable timber industry.

Regulate surface mine and metal mine reclamation, oil and gas drilling, gas storage, geothermal drilling, and underground fluids injection. Protect working forests and working agricultural lands from conversion to non-forest and non-agricultural uses.  This includes supporting small forest landowners in maintaining their land as working forests, creating the Evergreen Forests Program to establish incentives and rewards to encourage private landowners to commit to keeping the land permanently forested, and acquiring the authority and funding for a new Community Forest Trust where lands at high risk of conversion would be acquired and managed for community benefits. Monitor and research the causes of earthquakes, landslides, and volcanoes and publish information on geologic hazards.  This is information that is critical to decision makers in government and the private sector and key to reducing the human and financial effects of natural disasters. Implement an active Forest Health program to respond to forest health crises, especially in Eastern Washington, with information, education, and assistance, and through forest health treatments on state and federal lands.

The agency has worked hard to assess risks to climate change and develop priority responses. Critical work ahead will focus on developing and implementing specific responses in each of our programs as guided by the agency’s Plan for Climate Resilience, which was released this year.   20-Year Forest Health Strategic Plan   DNR’s forest health plan emphasizes partnerships with federal, state, tribal and local partners to prioritize and implement forest health treatments, such as mechanical treatments and prescribed fire, in landscapes with the highest need and relative risk. The pace and scale of this plan is significant -- 1.25M acres over the next 20 years -- and will require aggressive implementation to meet, including establishing efficient systems, strong relationships with federal, state, local and community stakeholders, and setting and tracking of metrics to achieve goal.    Wildland Fire Protection 10-year Strategic Plan   DNR’s wildfire strategic plan is a shared vision of the future of wildland fire management that meets the challenges of increasing uncharacteristic wildfires, a changing landscape, and protecting growing populations. Guided by this plan, DNR -- the state's wildfire fighting force – is expanding its team to respond to increasingly severe fire seasons. To be effective in meeting the growing demand for wildfire resources, DNR requires strong leadership to support with Wildfire Team in developing efficient and effective systems in operations, enterprise, finance, budget, and planning.   Salmon Recovery Strategy DNR’s “salmon strategy” is a developing area of work that involves work across the agency and with stakeholders. The aim is to ensure DNR is significantly aiding salmon recovery through the strategic use of tools available to the agency in key watersheds, while pursuing solutions to big-picture challenges impacting salmon across the state. This work involves ensuring our divisions, regional staff in priority watersheds, and policy and legislative staff work in coordination to set objectives and make progress on specific programmatic goals. Coordination and planning for this cross-cutting work area will be ongoing, and specific programs will be identified over the coming months as focus areas where we can make the biggest difference for salmon recovery.   Included in this work is DNR’s urban forestry program which is fast becoming one of the most important work DNR does – as the state’s population grows, mostly in urban centers, the demand for healthy green space for communities is increasing.  This program is being re-envisioned and expanded in light of the growing need and the value our urban forests have for salmon recovery.   Rural Economic Development Our working lands – and the communities that depend on them for economic security – are integral to our success as a state, and we must invest in their success. DNR is focused on using its resources and expertise to support rural economies and create good-paying jobs.
