2006 SFM Indicator Report

 

Today, forest management is much more than harvesting and growing trees.  It involves the management of all resources within the forest through an integrated planning approach.  The forest is a network of interlocking resource values including fisheries, wildlife, water quality, recreation, wilderness and timber.  Corner Brook Pulp and Paper ensures this mosaic of resource values is managed on a sustainable basis to provide economic and social benefits for the people of Newfoundland and Labrador.

 

It is essential that our forests remain healthy and diverse, and that all forest uses are respected.  In meeting this goal, Corner Brook Pulp and Paper's forest management planning process involves public input and participation to ensure operating plans reflect the interests of all forest users.  If we are to sustain values such as timber, water quality, and recreational opportunities, the forest must be managed today, with tomorrow in mind.

If you are interested in getting involved in this process, contact your district office of the Department of Natural Resources

Corner Brook Pulp and Paper is involved in another forest management process requiring public input and participation.  As part of the requirements for certification to the CSA-Z809-02 Sustainable Forest Management Standard, Corner Brook Pulp and Paper has formed a Public Advisory Committee, to provide organized and regular input into the Company's Sustainable Forest Management Plan (see link below).  The Public Advisory Committee currently consists of 33 members representing: private citizens, towns, outdoor clubs and associations, union, government, harvesting contractors, environmental groups, aboriginals and development boards. Please contact us if you are interested in joining the Public Advisory Committee, or learning more about it.

We invite your feedback on our SFM Plan, forest and management practices, logging activities and Company roads - any subject you would like to address or discuss. Contacts
