Submitted ____________________, 2005. International Forest Products Ltd. Authors Gordon Butt, Madrone Environmental Services J. Dan Lousier, Whiskeyjack Science Don McMillan, Interfor Warren Warttig, Interfor DRAFT Interfor Madrone Conservation and Sustainable Forestry Plan TFL 54 June 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Like ordinary TFL Management Plans, this Conservation and Sustainable Forestry Plan will show how Interfor will manage TFL 54 in Clayoquot Sound over the coming five-year period (2005 to 2009). However, Clayoquot Sound is not an ordinary place and this is not an ordinary Management Plan. This Plan describes the special context and history of the Sound, it explains how Interfor has met the challenges of the last decade, and will show how Interfor will continue to sustainably manage the TFL in the future. The 1995 Clayoquot Sound Scientific Panel recommendations resulted in fundamental and dramatic changes and marked a clear departure from earlier, conflict-inspiring industrial forest management focusing on timber production. The preparation of this plan marks the 10th anniversary since Interfor began the implementation of the Scientific Panel’s recommendations. In fully embracing these changes, Interfor has been on the forefront of ecosystem-based management in BC. It now has 10 years experience working with the new way of doing business. Interfor has adjusted to a new philosophy that emphasizes the trees left behind, rather than the trees harvested. Interfor can claim numerous successes. It has: 1. Pioneered expertise in Variable Retention harvesting, meeting Science Panel rules, while at the same time running an efficient and safe operation; 2. Developed an innovative approach to soliciting public input into recreation and scenic resource management; 3. Developed effective and efficient methods of planning, engineering and harvesting under Scientific Panel rules; 4. Initiated, planned, implemented and monitored watershed restoration projects, resulting in channel recovery and significant increases in fish production; and 5. Developed a comprehensive and inventive area-based AAC analysis. Not everything envisaged by the Scientific Panel has been accomplished in Clayoquot Sound, although Interfor cannot take sole responsibility for these inadequacies. There has been no systematic, coordinated or logical strategy for research and monitoring, following the Scientific Panel’s recommendations. Part of the responsibility for this lies in inconsistent government funding and lack of coordination between stakeholders – particularly after the disappointing performance of the Long Beach Model Forest. A more coordinated effort is necessary. DRAFT Interfor Madrone i Conservation and Sustainable Forestry Plan TFL 54 June 2005 There has been no significant effort to understand the costs and benefits of the Clayoquot Experiment. After 10 years, there is still no real understanding of the impacts of the Scientific Panel’s recommendations. The investment in this experiment warrants a comprehensive assessment. Interfor believes that the Provincial Government should take the lead in conducting an independent and unbiased assessment of the true costs and benefits. Interfor has identified certain Scientific Panel recommendations that it feels can be modified without a concomitant increase in adverse ecological impact. Specific changes are presented in this plan (Section 4.4). The most significant changes involve rate of cut, hydroriparian reserve management and opening size in VR harvest units: 1. For watersheds greater than 500 ha, Interfor suggests abiding by the 1% per year rule. However, for watersheds with low vulnerability to peak flow changes we suggest this rate of cut be averaged over 10, rather than 5 years. For these watersheds, Interfor would cap the Equivalent Clearcut Area at 30%. 2. For watersheds less than 500 m, Interfor would follow the 1% per year, but averaged over 20 years. The ECA cap for larger watersheds would apply. 3. Interfor proposes that for non-alluvial streams with channel gradients greater than 8 %1 within proposed harvest areas, hydroriparian reserves be increased in width, but for only one half of the length of the stream in the setting. In addition, Interfor will ensure that at least 60% of the total length of non- alluvial streams in a watershed remains under natural forest cover. 4. For alluvial streams less than 3 m wide and less than 8% in gradient, Interfor would adopt an average 30 m buffer. 5. Interfor proposes that in special circumstances where blowdown is likely to compromise retention targets, opening widths can be increased from 2 to 6 tree lengths, while still meeting the set retention targets on the gross harvesting area. Increased flexibility would allow Interfor to better manage blowdown hazards. Interfor has achieved a great deal in Clayoquot Sound in the decade following the implementation of the Scientific Panel report. Yet it faces continued challenges on the economic front. Since Interfor acquired TFL 54 in 1991, the AAC has dropped from 180 000 m3 to 75 750 m3 – a reduction of 58%. To remain in business, Interfor must continue to strive to improve efficiency and achieve cost reductions. By adopting the Scientific Panel’s recommendations, Interfor participated in changes that dramatically raised standards for ecosystem-based management. While 1 These correspond to B(2)(a), B(2)(b) and B(3) streams, according to the CSSP Hydroriparian Classification DRAFT Interfor Madrone ii Conservation and Sustainable Forestry Plan TFL 54 June 2005 sustainable in the ecological sense, these changes were not sustainable from the perspective of social and economic factors. Interfor is hopeful that the next 10 years of the Clayoquot Experiment will meet sustainability objectives in a more balanced and equitable way.

  • Energy Resources in BC's Central Interior
    Western Geography, 12 (2002), pp. 216–229 ©Western Division, Canadian Association of Geographers Energy Resources in BC’s Central Interior Peter Ostergaard Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer British Columbia Utilities Commission Reliable, convenient, and reasonably priced energy services are a prerequisite for both quality of life and an energy-intensive resource sector in central British Columbia. Investments by governments, Crown corpo- rations, and BC-based companies in energy infra- structure to facilitate regional economic development characterized most of the last 50 years. This is chang- ing. While access to infrastructure remains important, the region’s gas and electricity price advantages are dis- appearing as these commodities are traded across conti- nental infrastructure networks. Future energy invest- ments in the region will be more environmentally benign and perhaps environmentally beneficial, as efforts to continue to mitigate the environmental impacts of reservoirs, reservoir operations, and energy corridors. Introduction The Central Interior’s abundance of low cost energy resources has strongly influenced the evolution of the region’s economy and patterns of settlement. Aside from biomass supplies (e.g., firewood, pulping liquor, hog fuel), the region imports most of its energy needs using a highly developed and reliable network of oil and gas pipelines and power transmission lines. Access to these supplies has been a prerequisite to attracting the energy intensive, resource based industries upon which the region will continue to depend. However, these abundant, low cost supplies have come at an envi- ronmental cost, primarily in the form of flooded valley bottoms and land alienated by pipeline and transmission corridors. Energy Resources in BC’s Central Interior 217 Historical Context Traditionally when we think of energy, its sources come to mind.

  • Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements
    Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Preface 1. This schedule contains lists of Indian Reserves and Settlements in Canada by Provinces and lists of Indian Bands by Regions taken from information filed with the Indian Land Registry as of June 1, 1972. 2. Indian Settlements are shown in the "Reserve" columns of Parts 1 and 2. These are not Indian Reserves within the meaning of the Indian Act and occupation of settlements is not restricted to a particular Band. 3. Part 1 of the schedule lists Indian Reserves and Settlements alphabetically by Provinces. Settlements follow after the alphabetical list of Reserves for each Province. This section also states the names of the Indian Bands for whose use and benefit the Reserves have been set apart, the approximate geographical location and the approximate acreage of each Reserve. 4. Map designations are given in the location description. The N.T.S. abbreviation means the "National Topographical Systems" of maps covering the Reserves and adjacent land. Maps can be obtained by writing to the Map Distribution Office, Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Ottawa, Ontario. When ordering maps the complete N.T.S. designations must be quoted. To assist in locating Reserve location, approximate degrees and minutes latitude and longitude have been given. 5. Acreage includes all lands in which the Band has a recorded interest. Acreages are shown as APPROXIMATE because in most cases they are based on old data which have not yet been verified. Research and surveys to establish accurate acreage are being carried out and the acreage shown may be changed in the future.
