Public Advisory Groups (PAGs) have been established in Vanderhoof, Prince George, Fort St. James, and Tree Farm License 30.  These PAGs are comprised of volunteer individuals representing the interests important in the planning area. The PAGs will specifically work towards the goals listed in their terms of reference in an open, transparent and accountable process.

The Public Advisory Group will have the opportunity to work with the Forest Licensees and BC Timber Sales to:

• Identify and select values, objectives, indicators, and targets, based on the CSA Sustainable Forest Management elements and any other elements relevant to the Defined Forest Area (DFA);
• Develop, assess, and select alternative strategies;
• Review the Sustainable Forest Management Plan;
• Design monitoring programs, evaluate results, and recommend improvements; and
• Discuss and resolve any issues relevant to sustainable forest management in the DFA.
