Grenville Channel scenic route again threatened

 

Interfor major amendment to log shoreline along Kumealon and Grenville Channel – technically only asking for the road (orange) but note the cut blocks have not been approved yet

LRMP is working on setting Visual standards along Grenville – but this will be logged long before LRMP becomes official --- in meantime new Code leaves it to Interfor to figure what standards needed

For over view see my earlier on Grenville; and Kumealon and as fish habitat  --- and other local TFLs

  Pink proposed’ dark approved cutblocks

 

Meanwhile Small Business wants more of Banks Island’s forest

The purplish cutblocks North of Donaldson Lake are each 60 hectares – presumably because grand fathered in – but the large block south west (pinkish) is proposed and still has 55 hectares well over the 40 upper limit for coastal forests --- but most the good forest is being removed and biodiversity will suffer (see my earlier over view of Banks)

See my earlier for Banks– and how blocks change over time --

 

MORE??

See all the older logging proposal  files from this page and why LRMP has to change the status quo
