DNR provides Wildlife Technical Assistance Providers list
The Wildlife Technical Assistance Providers List is a directory of contractors, who are involved in wildlife technical assistance, especially those contractors who provide on-the-ground services. The list was compiled by the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) with assistance from Clemson Extension Service, Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA Forest Service, and S.C. Forestry Commission. The list currently consists of individuals or businesses in South Carolina and nearby contractors in Georgia and North Carolina. These contractors provided a variety of services ranging from: timber and wildlife management, prescribe burning, food plot planting, and dove field preparations.
DNR in no way endorses or guarantees the services of any contractor on this list. It is strongly recommended that the landowner seeking assistance ask for references and a written contract which outlines the landowner’s desired service, outcome and/or objectives and goals. It is also recommended that the landowner seeks more than one opinion before agreeing to any contract. Listings are by county of business location. Most contractors work multiple counties.
Compiling the list will be an ongoing process and changes to the Wildlife Technical Assistance Providers List will be made as new contractors are identified. If you are a private consultant or business involved with wildlife habitat related technical assistance to private landowners and wish to be included on this list, please contact Willie Simmons at 803-734-3898. To obtain a copy of the list contact your local DNR office or online.
