Recovering Economic Value

In September 2004 the Chief Forester increased the allowable annual cut in the Prince George, Quesnel and Lakes timber supply areas – the three TSAs in the province being hardest hit by the mountain pine beetle. The focus of the increase is salvaging pine forests with moderate to high levels of mortality as a result of the beetle.

Several non-replaceable forest licences have been advertised and awarded as part of the disposition strategy for the beetle uplift volume.
