Okanagan Regional Woodlands

Forest Stewardship Plan (FSP)
The approved FSP for Tolko Okanagan Regional Woodlands came into effect on February 28, 2007 for a five year term. The FSP defines the areas within which timber harvesting and road construction activities may occur during the term of the FSP. These activities must be conducted consistent with the results, strategies, measures and standards specified in the FSP. To view the current document and maps follow the links below:

These amendments will generally be available for a 60 day review period with notifications sent to applicable Stakeholders and First Nations. During the review period links to maps of the new cutblocks and roads will be posted below on this site. Once each amendment has been completed the new cutblocks and roads will be added to the approved maps above.
