Vision StatementThe Kamloops TSA Sustainable Forest

Management Plan will foster forestmanagement practices, based on science

and local public and First Nations input,that contribute to the long-term health and

productivi ty of forest resources, a strongeconomy, and thriving communities

throughout the Kamloops TSA.

1 . 0 B a c k g r o u n dBetween February and August 2000, allforest licensees operating in theKamloops Timber Supply Area (TSA)worked with a dedicated group of publicstakeholders to develop a SustainableForest Management (SFM) plan for theTSA. Members of the SFM AdvisoryGroup reflected a cross-section of localinterests including environmentalorganizations, First Nations, resource-based interests and research specialists.

Any licensee wishing to become registered to the Canada’s national standard, known asCAN/CSA-Z809-96 could use the plan, in part, to meet forest certification requirements. TheSFM Plan serves as a “roadmap” to current and long-term management in the TSA, settingperformance objectives and management strategies that reflect the ecological and social valuesacross the TSA. It is consistent with the Kamloops Land and Resource Management Plan.

2 . 0 C o n t i n u a l I m p r o v e m e n tThe SFM Plan contains 29 indicators of sustainable forestmanagement. Indicators will be monitored annually based oninformation provided by each licensee. Annual monitoring reports −prepared each spring − will indicate whether performance measuresfor each of the objectives have been met. These reports will be madeavailable to the public.

The effectiveness of the SFM Plan will continually be improved byreviewing annual monitoring the results. This review will providelicensees and the public with an opportunity to bring forward newinformation and to provide input concerning new or changing publicvalues that can be incorporated into future updates of the SFM Plan.Performance measures (objectives and indicators) may also changeas additional information becomes available.

3 . 0 O p p o r t u n i t i e s f o rI n v o l v e m e n tMore information about sustainable forestmanagement in the Kamloops TSA (including a copyof the SFM Plan) is available on the Kamloops TSACertification website:

http://www.lrmp.gov.bc.ca/kamloops/TSAcertification.htm.

If you wish to be further involved or wish to knowabout the annual performance results, pleasecontact one of the licensees participating in thisinitiative (see back of cover page).

2002 performance highlights for the Kamloops Timber Supply Area Sustainable ForestManagement Plan are as follows.

• The amount of area in permanent roads and landingsin areas harvested during the year was 3.7 percent,which is well below the 6 percent target.

• Licensees achieved full compliance with cariboustrategies in the Kamloops LRMP for the third year ina row.

• Regeneration of harvested blocks occurred within 22months on average from the time of harvestingcompared to the target of 36 months.

• Road cuts and fill slopes were seeded or planted onaverage within 3.6 months of disturbance, comparedto a target of 12 months.

• All 8,840 kilometres of status roads conformed to their maintenance or deactivation plans.

• Seven licensees are registered to a recognized third party certification as compared to fivein 2001; three licensees have more than one registration, up by one from last year

• Licensees reported a total of 59 working relationships with First Nations (e.g., partnerships,joint ventures, business contracts etc.) which is comparable to the result for 2001.Archaeological assessments were completed on all 269 harvested cutblocks requiring anassessment and licensees responded to all First Nations requests for communication.

Targets were not achieved for 3 indicators/objectives (2, 20, and 21). See section 5.1 for moredetail on all performance indicators and objectives.


5 . 0 P e r f o r m a n c e 2 0 0 2Environmental, social and economic performance was assessed according to the six criteria inthe CSA standard.

Annual performance related to the implementation of the SFMplan is assessed by determining the extent to which targets forindividual objectives have been met. The overall achievementof sustainable forest management is assessed by reviewingprogress toward the goals identified for each of the criterion inthe SFM plan. Since objectives and indicators have beenestablished for each of goals relating to the criterion, anassessment of progress towards sustainable forestmanagement can be made by reviewing the collectiveachievement of the indicator results for each of the criterion.

The following chart provides a summary of the results for each of the SFM criteria for the 2002reporting period. It also provides a comparison with the results for 2001. The results indicatethat all of the objectives were met for Criterion 3 and that all but one of the objectives was metfor the remaining 5 criteria. In comparison with 2001, the results for 2002 were similar.Performance improved by one for Criterion 3, decreased by one for Criterion 4 and wasunchanged for the remaining four criteria.

The 6 criteria included in the CSA standard define the broad parameters of sustainable forestmanagement (i.e., biological diversity, forest ecosystem condition and productivity, soil andwater resources, contributions to global ecological cycles, benefits to society, and society’sresponsibility for sustainable development). Each criterion is further defined by three or more


critical elements (e.g., ecosystem diversity, species diversity and geneticdiversity as components of biological diversity) totaling 21 in all.

Values describe “what matters” or “what is important” for each critical elementand goals describe the “desired future condition” relative to each criticalelement and value. Progress towards sustainable forest management isassessed by determining the progress toward the goals for each of the CSAcriterion as measured by the combined results of the objectives for each of thecriterion.

A summary of the performance results for each of the objectives relating to thesix SFM criteria is provided in the following table. Specific detail on the resultsfor each of the performance indicators is provided in Section 5.1.

5.1 Performance Summary by Indicators/Objectives 2002In an SFM Plan it is the Indicators and Objectives that provide the performance measures thatare to be met through on-the-ground forest management activities. Full compliance is requiredfor many objectives i.e., there is no variance. Where full compliance may not be achievable, anacceptable level of variance is indicated for the objective.

Indicators are measures to assess progress toward a goal.

Objectives are specific short-term (one or two year) commitments to achieve identifiedgoals.

Indicator: (1) Achievement of the TSA’s old forest strategy.

Objective: Operations will respect the LRMP’s objectives forretaining old forest as a component of seral stagedistribution by landscape unit.

AssessmentResu l ts :

All licensees met the intent of the Kamloops LRMPfor old forest retention.

Indicator (1) forms part of the overall strategy to manage for biodiversity at thelandscape and stand level. High, intermediate and low biodiversity emphasisoptions and corresponding targets for Old Growth Management Areas (OGMA’s)have been assigned to each of the 33 landscape units in the LRMP area.

Indicator: (2) Level of FPC compliance with riparian management arearequirements.

Objective: Contribute to connectivity goals through full compliance with orexceeding FPC riparian management area requirements and Kamloopsand Clearwater Districts’ riparian and lakeshore policies.


Of a total of 11,902 hectares of cutblock and right-of-ways harvested,there was 1 riparian infraction.

Explanation: A violation ticket was issued for an incident where machine tracksextended 2-3 metres inside a 5 metre machine restricted area asidentified in the plan. There was no damage to the site. An internalinvestigation produced a corrective action plan to prevent a recurrence.

Indicator (2) forms part of the overall strategy to manage for biodiversity at the landscape and standlevels. Riparian management areas provide connectivity of forested cover along waterways, which aregenerally areas with high value for wildlife habitat and movement.

Indicator: (3) Level of FPC compliance with caribou strategies.

Objective: Full compliance with LRMP caribou strategy.


All licensees (4) who operated within the LRMP caribou strategy areaadhered to the management strategies. A total of 753 hectares wereharvested within the caribou strategy area.

Caribou is one of the species identified in the provincial IWMS, strategic direction for management ofcaribou habitat is provided in the Kamloops LRMP. Operations are not precluded within designatedcaribou corridors and their boundaries can be adjusted.

Indicator: (4) Percent of harvested cutblocks greater than 5 hectares that haveindividual wildlife trees/stubs and/or associated wildlife treepatches upon completion of harvest.

Objective: Provision for the location and distributionof patches or individual wildlife/leave treesby ensuring 80 percent of cutblocks greaterthan 5 hectares will have individual wildlifetrees/stubs and/or associated wildlife treepatches.


Seventy-nine percent of harvestedcutblocks greater than 5 hectares in sizehave Wildlife Tree Patches (WTP’s) and/orindividual wildlife/leave trees identified inoperational plans.

Var iance : Acceptable Range is between 70 and 100 percent.

Managing for increasing forest health issues has contributed to adownward trend in wildlife tree retention.

Indicator (4) focuses on management for biodiversity at the stand level. WTPs may be located outside ofcutblocks, along their edge, and still be consistent with provincial policy on wildlife tree retention.

Indicator: (5) Percent of cutblocks consistent with coarse woody debrisrequirements in operational plans.

Objective: 100 percent of cutblocks will be consistent with coarse woody debrisrequirements contained in operational plans (e.g. Forest DevelopmentPlans and Silviculture Prescriptions).


A total of 806 cutblocks were harvested during the reporting period.All cutblocks followed coarse woody debris strategies

This indicator addresses the need to maintain structural features of forest ecosystems at the stand level.

Indicator: (6) Average regeneration period from time of harvest.

Objective: Regeneration established within three years or lesson average from time of harvest.


Average regeneration delay was 22 months (1.8years).

Prompt reforestation ensures that the productive capacity of forest landbase togrow trees is maintained. Licensees will follow guidelines specifying tree speciesthat are most suited ecologically to maintain natural forest composition in an area.

Indicator: (7) Level of compliance with management strategies for all known rareecosystems.

Objective: Full Compliance with management strategies for all known rareecosystems.


Rare Ecosystems have not been made known for the ForestDevelopment Plan process.

Where known rare ecosystems have been identified, government agencies will define a managementstrategy. Licensees must follow the intent and direction set forth in the strategy. Rare ecosystems arealso those defined through government processes and identified as “known information” under the ForestPractices Code.

Indicator: (8) Level of compliance with management strategies for all identifiedwildlife (under IWMS).

Objective: Full compliance with management strategies for those speciesidentified in the Identified Wildlife Management Strategy.


All licensees (3) with IWMS species in their operating areasfollowed appropriate management strategies. There were a total of 18cutblocks where IWMS management strategies applied.

The IWMS provides guidelines for managing specific plant and animal species that are currentlyconsidered threatened or endangered.

Indicator (9) Level of FPC compliance with riparian requirements and theKamloops and Clearwater District's riparian and lakeshore policies.

Objective: Objective 9 is a repeat of Objective 2.


See results for Objective 2.

Indicator: (10) Annual percent of harvested areas in permanent access structures(e.g. roads and landings).

Objective: Less than 6 percent, on average, of harvested areas will be inpermanent roads and landings.


The percentage of roads and landings within the total harvested areaaveraged 3.7 percent.

Access structures such as roads and landings compact soil, making regeneration difficult, and disrupt thenatural connectivity within forest stands. The percent target refers specifically to loss to the timberharvesting landbase due to access structures within harvested areas.

Indicator: (11) Annual harvest level relative to annual allocation.

Objective: Harvest the annual cut allocation for the year consistent with the CutControl Regulation and Policy.


The volume harvested in 2002 was 2,858,079 cubic metres, which is101 percent of the allocated volume of 2,835,051 cubic metres, wellwithin the 50 percent variance allowed by cut control regulation.

The Chief Forester determines the sustainable harvest level for the TSA after considering social, economicand biological criteria. Licensees contribute to the sustainable harvest level by adhering to theirapportioned harvest volume within the TSA. Cut control regulations dictate the short-term harvestflexibility.

Indicator: (12) Incorporation of traditional knowledge, non-timber resources, andcultural and heritage values in forest planning, where available, inoperational plans.

Objective: Open communications with local First Nations during ForestDevelopment Plan reviews will assist with the management oftraditional knowledge, non-timber resources, and cultural and heritagevalues.


All licensees communicated with local First Nations duringDevelopment Plan reviews.

Indicator (12) recognizes the importance of managing for non-timber resources, including cultural andheritage resources, during forestry operations.

Indicator: (13) Level of compliance with soil conservation standards in operationalplans.

Objective: All harvested cutblocks will have soil disturbance percent belowapproved levels.


Soil disturbance objectives were met on all 11,183 hectares ofharvested cutblocks.

Indicator (13) addresses the impacts of forestry operations on soil productivity. Soil compaction anddisplacement are components of soil disturbance.


Indicator: (14) Number of months for road cut and fill slope seeding application.

Objective: All road cut and fill slope seeding application carried out within12 months of completed road construction on suitable sites.


Road cuts and fill slopes were seeded or planted on average within 3.6months of disturbance, compared to a target of 12 months.

Prompt revegetation of road cuts and fill slopes will minimize potential for soil movement andsedimentation. This will contribute to maintenance of water quality and long-term productivity of the land.Prompt revegetation of harvested areas will also contribute to noxious weed control.

Indicator: (15) Level of compliance with road maintenance and deactivation plans.

Objective: Manage water quality and erosion control by ensuring that all statusroads (temporary and permanent) conform to their maintenance ordeactivation plans as described in the Forest Development Plan.


All 8,840 kilometres of status roads conformed to their maintenance ordeactivation plans for the reporting period.

Indicator (15) recognizes the potential impact of roaded access on forests and waterways.

Indicator: (16) Number of licensees participating in the annual reporting of resultsand the holding of an annual advisory group meeting.

Objective: Prepare an annual performance report and hold at least one meetingper year with the SFM Public Advisory Group (PAG) toreview the results.


The SFM Monitoring Report for 2001 was presented to the PAG inMarch 2002. A field trip was held in September 2002 to review on-the-ground examples of sustainable forest management.

Indicator (16) indicates a commitment of Licensees to develop a Sustainable Forest Management Plan,irrespective of whether or not they intend to pursue formal certification. This will ensure consistency ofsustainable forest management across the TSA.

Indicator: (17) Number of registrations to a recognized third party certification.

Objective: Maintain and/or increase the number of registrations to a recognizedthird party certification.


Seven licensees are registered to a recognized third party certification.Three of the seven licensees are registered to more than onecertification system. This compares to five registered licensees in the2001 reporting period.

Indicator (17) recognizes the importance of certification to provide assurance to consumers that forestproducts originate from sustainably managed forests.

Indicator: (19) Percent of affected ranchers with whom meetings are held.Objective: Where forest operations are planned within range units, the forest

licensee will meet annually with the rancher to help ensure forestoperations will not adversely affect existing animal unit months(AUMs).


One hundred percent of ranchers affected by planned operations werecommunicated with during the reporting period compared to a target of90 percent.

Forestry operations often overlap range tenures and the outcome of operational activities can potentiallyhave a significant effect on range use.


Indicator: (20) Level of compliance with preservation, retention and partialretention of visual quality objectives in operational plans.

Objective: Full compliance with preservation, retention and partial retention ofvisual quality objectives.


423 of 437 cutblocks harvested met visual quality objectives.

Exp lana t ion The Clearwater Forest District does not currently have establishedVQO's. Licensees are managing to the intent of existing VisualInventory information. Fourteen blocks are classified as not meetingthe intent of the visual inventory, as they did not have a visual impactassessment (VIA) completed to test the visual management against thevisual inventory. The blocks were being harvested to address barkbeetle infestations. Mitigation strategies were incorporated into theblock design and retention strategy to address visual landscape designprinciples.

Visual quality objectives define the amount of visual alteration acceptable from a given viewpoint. Thechoice of scenic areas and significant viewpoints is based on social preferences.

Indicator: (21) Level of compliance with the Forest Practices Code.

Objective: Full compliance with, or exceed the Forest Practices Code.


Out of a total of 11,904 hectares of cutblock and right-of-waysharvested, there was 1 determination for non-compliance.

Exp lanat ion There was an administrative infraction of the Forest Practices Code (FPC)related to the authorization of Forest Development Plan (FDP)amendments.

The FPC requires that FDP changes in cut block design such as addingarea to a planned block, need to be publicly advertised and referred toappropriate parties. Once public input has been received and concernsincorporated into plans, the district manager will authorize theamendment to the approved FDP. Subsequent activities may then takeplace.

In this case, the blocks in question were advertised for public input andreferred to appropriate parties, but had yet to have the district manager'sauthorization of the FDP.

Steps have been taken to prevent a recurrence of the situation.


Indicator: (22) Level of compliance with provincial or district aboriginal policiesand procedures.

Objective: Foster activities that recognize aboriginal rights and duly establishedtitle through full compliance with provincial or district aboriginalpolicies/procedures.


All licensees were consistent with provincial and/or district aboriginalpolicies/procedures.
