100 MILE HOUSE, B.C. — The B.C. government is inviting 100 Mile House residents to comment on the upcoming timber supply review for the 100 Mile House Timber Supply Area (TSA).

The 100 Mile House TSA discussion paper provides results of a timber supply analysis, with description of the legal requirements, geography, natural resources and forest management.

B.C. government officials said the information will be used by B.C.’s chief forester to determine the annual timber harvest limits in the 100 Mile House TSA.

The amount, known as an allowable annual cut (AAC), will be set after consultations with Indigenous Nations, industry and community members.

“The 100 Mile House TSA includes the territories of more than 30 First Nations. The Tsq’escen First Nation (Canim Lake Band), Stswecem’c Xget’tem First Nation, High Bar First Nation and Whispering Pines/Clinton Indian Band were part of a timber supply review working group and contributed to the development of the public discussion paper. All 30 Nations have been invited to provide input on this timber supply review,” said the province.

“Administered by the 100 Mile House Natural Resource District, the 100 Mile House TSA covers approximately 1.24 million hectares in the Cariboo region. The current AAC is 967,805 cubic metres per year.”

B.C.’s chief forester considers technical forestry reports, First Nations consultations, input from the public, and government’s social and economic objectives.

The discussion papers are available online and people in the area can share their thoughts until August 25, 2026.
