Public feedback wanted on Lakes Resiliency Project

PRINCE GEORGE — The provincial government is asking for the public’s feedback in the next stage of the Lakes Resiliency Project.

The next stage of the Lakes Resiliency project is to create a forest landscape plan, co-developed with First Nations and forest and range licensees. The draft Current Condition Report examines forest and ecosystem health in the Lakes Timber Supply Area, a 1.5-million-hectare region in north-central British Columbia that consists of several communities, including Burns Lake.

Public responses to the report will support the creation of the forest landscape plan, aimed at strengthening healthy ecosystem management, including biodiversity, silviculture, visual management, water and wildlife habitat.
