Details of this year’s harvesting plans for the Cheakamus Community Forest (CCF) were outlined for the public at an open house on Tuesday (April 9), with planned logging increasing significantly in 2013 compared to last year. Last year 7,195 cubic metres of logs were delivered to market, well below the annual harvest set by B.C.’s Ministry of Forests at 20,000 cubic metres for the five-year period between 2009 and 2013. The low harvest was mainly due to poor market prices.
