BC Timber Sales - Seaward-tlasta Forest Stewardship Plan Mandatory Amendment

Opportunity for Review and Comment

The Seaward-tlasta Forest Stewardship Plan (FSP), in the BC Timber Sales (BCTS) Seaward-tlasta business area, shows the location of forest development units in the North Island-Central Coast natural resource district and portions of Campbell River natural resource district.

The Seaward-tlasta FSP provides the results and strategies BCTS will follow to ensure sustainable forest management and meet the legal requirements of the Forest and Range Practices Act and regulations.

The proposed amendment addresses the following changes:

• Updated results and strategies for incorporating the government objectives set out under the revised 2023 Great Bear Rainforest Order (GBRO)
• BCTS’s proposal to expand the South-Central Coast (SCC) Forest Development Unit (FDU) to incorporate the Thurlow, Gray and Estero Landscape Units and a very small portion of the Stafford Landscape Unit located within the GBRO area, that have previously been covered by the BCTS Strait of Georgia Business Area’s South-Central Coast FSP #626
• The Tlowitsis Nation’s proposal to become a signatory FSP Holder for the portion located within the SCC FDU
