As reported in the January 2010 Status Update on the Implementation of The Working Roundtable on Forestry’s Recommendations, the BC Ministry of Forests and Range has now established five short-rotation forest plantations in the Vanderhoof, Prince George, Fort St. James, Babine and Okanagan-Shuswap forest districts.
Government scientists are also evaluating the suitability of several broad leaves for short rotation fibre and energy production.
