This document is intended to guide the management of our Research Forest by resolving our management objectives with strategic direction from the Forest and Range Practices Act and the Cariboo Chilcotin Land Use Plan. There have been substantial changes to the practice of forestry in the Cariboo since MWP#2 was written in 1996. Working within that Management Plan has helped us to react to change in a constructive manner, and I fully expect that this new plan will continue to support our activities as our world continues to change around us. I would like to direct your attention to several unique aspects of this plan. x I have taken the step of summarizing the history of the area we manage, in the belief that our future is strongly influenced by our past. x I am proposing that we convert our forest management to area regulation, and as such have stated our Allowable Annual Cut in hectares instead of cubic metres. x We will implement an ongoing process of consultation, rather than simply referring this plan for comment. x We have assembled a list of twenty action items, which will take us many years to complete. We hereby submit this plan for your approval.

In 1973, Mr. Ca:rrpbell embarked on a detailed account of the limited licensing prograrme in the British Colunbia Salrron Fis!Ecy. This study, based on an in depth personal k:nONledge gained over years of involverrent with the prograrme's develop:rait and administration, provided the frarrework for this present publica­ tion. Without Mr. campbell' s preliminary work, this present publication would have suffered greatly. The contribution of others must also be thankfully ack:ncwledged. Several people read and made ca:ments on earlier drafts. The final work includes sugges­ tions from lbb M:>rley, Will McKay and Jay Barclay of the Econanics unit and Rick Lyrner of the University of British Colunbia. A special note of thanks should go to Dr. C.H.B. Newton, the current director of Econanics and Special Industry Services (Pacific Region), for both his encouragement and his k:nONledgeable ideas and carrrents. Last, but by no means least, thanks should go to Shehenaz Bhatia for her typing of the preliminary and final drafts.

Griess, Associate Professor, Department of Forest Resources Management, UBC Supervisor Dr. Adam Polinko, Post-doctoral Fellow, Department of Forest Resources Management, UBC Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Allan Carroll, Professor, Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, UBC Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Lori Daniels, Professor, Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, UBC Additional Examiner i Abstract Licensees are required to regenerate interior Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menzisii var glauca) forest gaps greater than 0.1ha to meet and maintain species distribution across age classes for stands, biodiversity (such as mule deer winter range (MDWR)), and recreational objectives. However, little is known about the dynamics of natural regeneration in these forests. To understand future stand structure and composition, I investigated the regeneration dynamics and growth of interior Douglas-fir post-disturbance, and the influence of growing space availability on the dynamics of interior Douglas-fir regeneration and growth.
