Sažetak
In Croatia, the period from 2000 to 2007 was marked with very intensive changes in the field of legislation and strengthening the institutional framework of the forestry sector. The following was accomplished: a new Forest Act was passed, the national inventory of forest resources was made for the first time, the Forest Counseling Service was established as a public service intended to promote private forest management in the Republic of Croatia, a professional chamber of forestry engineers was founded and certification and licensing of specialist forest operations contractors and forest work contractors was initiated. In the sector strongly interacting with forestry a number of regulations and strategic documents were passed, the most important being the Nature Protection Act, the Environment Protection Act, the Water Management Plan of the Republic of Croatia and the Ecological Network Regulation of the Republic of Croatia. Intensive activities are under way related to selecting forest areas / localities to be proposed for the insertion in the NATURA 2000 network. Within the accession programs, there are possibilities of using financial resources from the EU pre-accession funds (SAPARD, ISPSA, PHARE). Forestry and all other highly important related sectors have proposed significant expert arguments for solving multiple mutual relations concerning resource use and other needs. At this stage of new orientation, forestry has modest (meaning: very small) opportunities, primarily due to the absence of communication strategy, while certain compromises require thorough preparations, broad support and a strong lobby.
