Jack's Recycling ~ Richard A. Smith is the owner and operator of Jack's Recycling.  Jacks has been in the Smith family for 3 generations.  Rick inherited the business in 2000.  He continued the parts business for several years before seeing opportunities in the metal recycling business.  Scrap metals have been extremely profitable for Jack's as well as the environmental impact for the area.  With the scales on sight at Jack's it has made it very easy for Jack to receive logs and pulpwood and he is excited for this new opportunity to branch into the logging buisness. 

The Sampson Group Neil Sampson has been working with forest carbon sequestration and carbon trading issues since the early 1990's.  It has taken a long time, but with the Chicago Climate Exchange and today's indications that U.S. national policy is going to move in the direction of a cap-and-trade system, the promise of attracting carbon credits for forest landowners seems brighter than ever.  It is not yet certain, because much work needs to be done with the Congress and the federal agencies (no matter who wins the presidency) to assure that forestry is given a fair chance to participate.  That's what we will be working to achieve in collaboration with Red Rock Enterprises and a host of other cooperators.  www.sampsongroup.com
