Province seeking input on 100 Mile House forestry planning

“Engagement with forest licensees, subject-matter experts and the public is a key part of every FLP. This engagement ensures that operational expertise from forest licensees is incorporated into plan development, alongside First Nations’ interests and community-identified values,” said the B.C. government.

Residents can learn more at a pair of open house events – at the Clinton Memorial Hall at 306 Le Bourdais Avenue from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. on May 6, and at the South Cariboo Recreation Center in 100 Mile House from 10 a.m. to 12:00 noon on May 9.

Those attending will have an opportunity to learn more about the 100 Mile House FLP and ask questions.

The public survey will be open until June 8, 2026 and all feedback collected will be integrated into the FLP.

Once completed, the document will encompass several goals:

Identifying where and how forest management activities occur, including timber harvesting, road layout, silviculture activities.
Providing clarity on overlapping direction from strategic plans and land use objectives.
Addressing changing conditions.
Address environmental impacts of timber harvesting, such as climate change and wildfires.
Consider cumulative effects to prepare for possible future conditions.
