Having worked and lived in Pa. all my life, never was permitted to remove wood with exception of brush or chips off of roadsides, powerlines or pipelines without specific permission from a property owner. Wood that was unreachable by owner would have to be moved for their accessibility if they so desired it. I can't quote the laws but know they exist. Was contracted to PennDOT, ExxonMobil, Williams and several others. They were very adamant about the rules and would release anyone that didn't comply. Most roads were only Right of Ways and remained the property of the person that it crossed.
Although some get away with helping themselves, I've seen people arrested for trespass and fined for the value of the taken wood.
Sadly have seen a great deal of wood rot by the side of roads for years while many people could have benefited.
If anyone is in doubt why not knock on their door and extend the courtesy of asking politely and most times it may not be a problem. Your borough may have a program for less fortunate that may already have plans for it. Please don't just help yourself.
We currently burn about 2 triaxle loads of wood a year and would take great exception to anyone that were to take fire wood from our road frontages. Some municipalities even reserve the right to charge the owners for removal of danger trees that may or may not be within their ROW.

An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let’s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
