Coshiews photo by Guy Alliance t outs community TFL for valley By SIMON BIRCH Editor The Slocan Valley Watershed Alliance’s proposal to establish a community-administered tree farm licence in the valley is ‘the only way for there to be balanced use of forests” in the area, the alliance’s co-chairman said this week. In a telephone interview with the Castlegar News, Herb Hammond said a community-based TFL in the Slocan Valley wou'd also ‘‘go a long-way’ toward resolving the long-standing impasse between.he watershed allian- ce and the Ministry of Forests over watershed management issu¢s in the valley :*What we hope to do is to show that community control of forests is a lot more responsible and diverse control of forests than control by any single special-interest group,"”. Hammond said members consider the proposal an The Slocan Valley Watershed ‘‘importantconcept.’ Alliance presented its proposal June 24 ——** We were told that they thought the at a meeting of the Natural Resources presentation was excellent," said Task Force of Kootenay Development Hammond, a professional forester Region 4 “My sense of things was that the The alliance previously presented its majority of people there concurred proposal to the Regional District of | with(the proposal).”” Centra} Kootenay board of directors Hammond said the alliance’s who referred it to the board’s resources proposed tree farm licence would en: committee. compass the drainage of the main Hammond said the task force mem-_ Slocan River from Hills to South bers explained to the alliance they Slocan that is currently part of a forest could deal only with “‘conceptual _ licence held by Slocan Forest Produc things’’ and ‘“‘would not necessarily — ts support a specific project’’ such as the And that’s one the alliance proposes. proposal may run into problems.

The commission will * Advise the minister on the efficacy of tree farm licences as a form of tenure for logging companies, without examining stumpage rates; * Recommend ways to improve public participation in forest planning and management, and * Review and recommend ways to improve harvesting practices, focusing on clear-cutting and its impact BY YEAR'S END Munroe, who will be paid $90,000 a year from an an- nual budget of $1.5 million, said he expects to have the first set of recommendations completed by the end of the year “1 think this is a pretty broadly based representative that is not going to fool around,” he said in an commission based on news reports he has heard of its man. date and make-up. “*It disappoints me that it (the commission) appears to be completely in control of the minister,’’ Hammond told the Castlegar News today Native people and environmental groups are un: derrep: on the said F a professional forester “Any commission, to gain peoples’ trust, would have to deal immediately with the contentious areas that are planned to be logged,”” Hammond added, citing the Stein in northern B.C., the Carmanah on Vancouver Island and *“*watersheds throughout the Interior.”’ Forests Minister Dave Parker rejected a royal com. mission in favor of a pérmanent | 1-member commission to be headed by Don Munroe, a lawyer and former chairman of the now defunct Labor Relations Board. Parker said this commission could be granted sub- poena powers by cabinet if necessary in the future. interview in Vancouver. ‘*This committee is comprised of people who are not accustomed to wasting their time and I'm not accustomed to wasting my time. So we're going to work hard and produce top-notch recommendations."* A spokesman for the forest industry applauded Parker’s move “This is a fresh approach in dealing with some very important issues,"’ said Mike Apsey, president of the Council of Forest Industries. George's comments were echoed by NDP forests critic Dan Miller, who said the advisory commission: falls far short of the overhaul needed to stop mismanagement of B.C. forests. ““British Columbians have lost confidence in the way our forests are being managed,"’ Miller said..‘‘A royal commission, not a public relations move, is the only way to restore that confidence.”* Parker, however, said a royal commission “‘is very tight in scope and very finite,"’ while his new commission gives ‘‘us a much wider scope to deal with topics and issues _and disturbed of theday.”” Calls have been sounding for months for an in vestigation into logging management, amid disputes over logging of old-growth forests, clear-cutting and the amount of waste by lumber companies The commission's structure was criticized by en vironmentalists because it did not include a member from anestablished environmental group.
