Timber Removal or Destruction For Non Forestry Land Use and Forest Damage Appraisal and Valuation Procedures

All activities, proposed or in progress, involving Crown timber including those of an agricultural or non forestry nature, require the approval of the Forestry and Peatlands Branch. Where cutting, removal or destruction occurs and timber pre-salvage or harvesting is not performed or desirable, such as in the case of a young stand or plantation, a Forest Damage Appraisal and Valuation for calculation of charges will be undertaken by Regional Forestry and Peatlands Branch staff.
