Adams said the problem was not only localized, the same situation exists pro- vince-wide. and uni- versities are not producing province that there will not be enough trained people around to use the money properly,” said Adams. His concerns were echoed by James Mitchell, southern region manager with T.M. Thompson and Associates Ltd. of Victoria, an estab- lished firm of consulting engineers and foresters. “We have had difficulty hiring and training local people for the contracts we presently have in the Nelson and Kamloops Forest Dis. triets,” said Mitchell. His firm, which has per. Ag - $300 million over five years. Last year, the first of the agreement, $22 million was allocated toward regenera- tion of forest resources. This year, the rate is up to $44 million, with the figure near- ly doubling to $78 million for the next three years. “The amount of work ten- dered by the Forest Ministry already has employers formed work for Slocan Forest Products, Crestbrook Forest Industries and formerly, for Kootenay Forests Products, currently employs six people in the West Kootenay region. This summer Mitchell anticipates having 10 employees working in the Nelson District — if he can find qualified people. “Several of this year's graduates have already BLUEBERRY CREEK Grade 5: Tammy Kerekes, Jessica Whitley, Tammy Giles and Cari Rohn. Grade 6: Gavin Mealing, Greg Pope, Mary Maerz, Amy Rodgers, Tom Phipps, Ian Chernenkoff, Elena changed jobs as a result of the hiring competition,” said Adams. “Some have had the choice of two or three jobs.” According to Adams, Sel- kirk College is not alone in its search for qualified appli- cants. “All schools in the province are soft on applications to their Forestry programs,” he said. He attributes this in part to the recent bad press concerning the health of the forest industry. “Many young people are influenced by a relative who has been laid off a sawmill job during the recession,” said Adams. “What they're hear. ing at home and in the media is the loss of jobs in forestry. “This may apply to har- vesting and wood processing end of things, but the boom is really on in the land manage- ment end of forestry, and that is what we teach here at the college.” Mitchell, a registered pro- business is primarily to form- ulate implementation plans, the big money will be spent putting them into practice.” Students given awards Blueberry Creek elemen- tary school held its -annual awards ceremony recently.

Forest research eyed By SIMON BIRCH Staff Writer The Canadian Forestry Service has its eye on the Kootenays as a location to conduct research into “weed” control on logging sites in order to enhance timber harvests, Bridge results a Vietoria said Thursday. from the service's Pacific Forestry Centre in Speaking at a Castlegar Chamber of Commerce The average score was 54 with the following winners: first - Hugh Auld and Myrna Baulne 67':; second - Etuka Cameron and Sandra Broom 60'n; third - Rob Troubridge and Don Ellison 60; fourth Wayne Weaver and Rita Perrier 57; fifth - Jean Fischer and Agnes Chariton 55%. Wayne Coombs, leader of the centre's forest project, said studies are underway in other parts of British Columbia. “We're now up here looking for study sites in the Kootenays,” Coombs said. Coombs stressed the need for research into the control of weeds — which he described as “anything that competes with conifers in a negative way” — on sites that have been logged or destroyed by forest fires in order to create an environment that will lead to better future timber harvests. “Future markets will depend on the second growth (of trees),” he said. Without research into ways to enhance harvests, “our kids’ kids are not going to have the wood they should have,” Coombs said during the 45-minute talk in which he AR. AND MRS.

Kenny Skibinski, Kim Lewis “Groups such as this one (the chamber of commerce) can and Wendy Hall. Grade 6 — play an important role to meet this positive end.” The studies into weed control on logging sites — under the umbrella name Project 34 — include manual, chemical and biological methods of weed control, Coombs told the chamber members.

Coombs noted that the public often has a misconception Grade 6 — Pam Read. of biological research. “There is a perception that it involves a virus that would get out of control. It's not like that.” Instead, he said, the research involves the potential usefulness of pathogens, in this case fungi, but with “proper environmental safeguards.” “We're trying to isolate various fungi and their effect on different species.” Coombs also briefly described to chamber members at the luncheon the $300 million, five-year Canada-British Columbia Forest Resources Development Agreement which expires in 1990.
