It may seem obvious: The USDA Forest Service needs people with forestry degrees. But that's not all. You also could work on managing natural resources if you're pursuing or recently graduated with a degree in biological sciences, agriculture, natural resource management, chemistry or related disciplines.
What is the Forest Service? We are a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture that manages 193 million acres of land, roughly the size of Texas.
The NFFE Forest Service Council is the largest bargaining unit in the agency. This new agreement was developed by the union and management negotiating teams. Negotiations can be complex and almost always involve compromise.
LEOs are the forest rangers. They enforce federal (and some state) laws and regulations governing national forest lands and resources. As federal law enforcement officers, they carry firearms and other defensive equipment. They also make arrests, execute search warrants, and testify in court.

MSAs are contracts that formulate the basic terms between vendors and clients at the beginning of a business relationship. This initial agreement helps to speed up the negotiation process for future contracts and facilities the project management process, resulting in a more efficient and streamlined process.
