State agencies shall submit to the board plans for, and the results of, all investigations that relate to, or have an effect upon, forest resource utilization for review and comment. The board may, at its expense, contract with any state or local agency to investigate and report on any technical factors involved in forest management; provided, that the burden, including costs, of such reports shall bear a reasonable relationship to the needs for the reports and the benefits to be obtained from such reports.
