Chief forester recommends extension

Submitted

British Columbia's chief forester Larry
Pedersen has recommended to Forests Minis-
ter Andrew Petter that the deadline for the
Timber Supply Review be extendcd by one
year to Dec. 31, 1996.

Pedersen said the extension has become nec-
essary due to a combination of unavoidable
factors and events; and is the only way to
ensure the orderly and reliable determination of
the remaining allowable annual cuts required to
be set under Section 7 of the Forest Act

“One of the main reasons for the exten-
sion,” said’ Pedersen, “is thé evolution of sig-
nificant improvements in the process of the
Timber Supply Review.

“When the review began in 1992, it
focused primarily on technical analyses. Later

it was expanded to include more comprehen-
sive public discussion papers, socio-economic
analyses, 90-day public review periods and
detailed rationale statements for the AAC
determinations.

Pedersen said unavoidable delays in the
schedule also resulted from the transition peri-
od between chief foresters, following the
retirement of John Cuthbert last year.

“Nevertheless, the Timber Supply Review
has made signi

“To date, 18 AACs have Hang p Fone ea
and the majority of the remaining 52 AACs
will be determined by the end of 1995. We've

Pedersen stressed that the exte.sion does not
translate into a shift in focus from the Timber
Supply Review to other government initiatives

“The Timber Supply Review remains one
of the ministry's top priorities, and this exten
sion does not mean that vw: will slow down
the review. The new schedule simply means
that we ‘are acknowledging the reality of our
workload.”

The Forest Service is conducting the Tim-
ber Supply Review in the 36 timber supply
areas and 34 tree farm licenses throughout the
province. The review was undertaken to iden-
tify: the economic, environmental and social

Grant Lenarduzzi said he has
since forwarded the proposal to
the ministry.

The concept of community
schools is that the school serves
as a focus for the community,
where every resident can learn
and intermingle

Lenarduzzi said the benefits to
the community and students are
incalculable and believes that
Robson Elementary is perfec for
the designation

“We sce ourselves us a unique
community. We have pride and

character and see ourselves as’

being different from others. We
tend to be a community which is
geographically separated as well.”

Lenarduzzi visualizes the
school as a community focal
point where not just students
gather for both educational and
non-educational functions.

“It could help us improve com-
munity relations and to use com-
munity resources to enhance and
enrich our curriculum at school.”

The designation also carries

Board approves community school

with it funding from the provin
cial government for a community
school coordinator

There are five criteria which
have to be met before designation
from the ministry.

They are:

* that the school board must
recognize the facility as a com
munity school;

* other funding must be allo
cated to the facility (such as for
the new Robson day care and the
lunch program),

+ the school must hire a coordina-
tor who has a special role to achieve
the goals of a community school;

+ after designation, the pro-
gram must be managed by a com-
munity advisory council;

+ that the community school
evolve programs originated by
the council for that community.

Lenarduzzi is hoping that
approval from the ministry will
be forthcoming by the end of this
school year.

Columbia
Basin

Fish & Wildlife
COMPENSATION PROGRAM

Launched on February 17th, 1995 as a joint initiative
of B.C, Environment and B.C, Hydro, the Columbia
Basin Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program will
help sustain and enhance fish and wildlife populations
in the Canadian portion of the Columbia River Basin.

Funding for habitat enhancement
With funding of approximately $3.2 million per year, the
program will strive to improve existing habitats that have
been affected by B.C. Hydro’s hydroelectric developments
in the Basin. Other habitat sites will be considered in cases
where activities are lly reduced or
eliminated by reservoir development.

Partnerships with the community
The program will be complementary to, and seek
ips with, other g and
ee: cbased initiatives in the region.

Activities underway
The program is already active in projects, including:

~ spawning channel and hatchery operation and
maintenance at Meadow Creek and
Hill/Mackenzie Creek

~ Kootenay Lake fertilization program

¢ Pend d’Oreille program

~ Lower Arrow fish and wildlife
compensation programs

~ Mica and Revelstoke compensation programs

Community Involvement
Public involvement is critical to the success of the
program. Input from all groups directly or indirectly
involved in the program, including First Nations,
residents, local government, resource users, key interest
groups and government agencies is strongly encouraged.
The public representatives on the Program Steering
Committee will provide on-going liaison with the public.

Get involved!
We want to hear from people throughout the Columbia
Basin. To provide your input, obtain additional
