The government has adopted a bill on special solutions related to the special use of forest land, providing for a temporary possibility to make swaps of forests and other properties of the State Treasury located in Jaworzno and Stalowa Wola and their surroundings, the Government Information Center (CIR) said.
“The government wants to introduce a temporary possibility of making exchanges of forests, lands and other properties of the State Treasury remaining under the management of the State Forests National Forest Holding - located in Jaworzno and Stalowa Wola and the areas of the State Treasury adjacent to them - for other forests, lands or properties, on which it is possible to carry out forest management,” the announcement reads.
The idea is to solve problems with obtaining locations for investments justified by the needs and objectives of the state policy related to supporting the development and implementation of energy, electromobility, or transport projects.
Currently, the exchange of forests, land, and other Treasury properties managed by the State Forests National Forest Holding (Państwowe Gospodarstwo Leśne Lasy Państwowe) is only possible in cases dictated by the needs and objectives of forest management, after they have been assessed by people with real estate appraisal qualifications.
