Plans by government to convert some forest harvesting from a volume-based model to an area-based model will come into clearer focus in the next few weeks. It was announced on Tuesday that the specialist consultant tasked with initial design of the program – former B.C. chief forester Jim Snetsinger – had concluded his information gathering process and was only a few weeks away from releasing his report. “During the two-month consultation period [Snetsinger] travelled throughout the province collecting feedback and ideas from stakeholder groups, First Nations and members of the general public,” said B.C. Ministry of Forests officials in a written statement.
