New woodlots available near Salmon Arm and Cherryville.
VERNON – Three new woodlot licences are available in the Okanagan-Shuswap area as the Province continues to create new forestry opportunities for individuals, groups and First Nations, Forests and Range Minister Pat Bell announced today.
“Woodlot licences create employment for forest workers, from enhancing silviculture practices to value-added manufacturing, while promoting licensees’ long-term relationship with the land,” said Bell. “We are helping our forest sector recover by establishing new markets, new wood products and building a stronger role for small tenure holders and forest communities around British Columbia.”
