Higher Level Plans
Presents a summary of legislation (including the Forest Practices Code of British Columbia Act and regulations), chief forester's policies and procedures, and related information regarding higher level plans related to provincial forestry. It contains direction that must be followed when preparing certain higher level plans and is intended for use by authorised decision-makers such as district managers and designated environmental officials. Higher level plans establish the broader, strategic context for operational plans, providing objectives that determine the mix of forest resources to be managed in a given area. Sections of this summary cover plans in two categories: those directly enabled through Part 2 of the Act, including objectives for resource management zones, landscape units, and sensitive areas; and those developed under non-Code legislation or policy. Includes glossary.
The Provincial Land Use Strategy: Planning for sustainability : improving the planning delivery system for British Columbia
The Commission on Resources and Environment (CORE) was given the legal responsibility in 1992 to develop a British Columbia wide strategy for land use and related resource and environmental management. After two years of extensive public consultation and research, the recommended provincial land use strategy is set out in four volumes. This second volume provides an in-depth review and detailed recommendations regarding legislation, structures, and other measures to improve the overall land use planning system in B.C.

This meticulous work analyzes and compares the range of Canadian and international legal tools available, providing in-depth case studies to illustrate how each instrument can work in practice. Despite climate change, overfishing, and pollution, this is a convincing demonstration to address species extinction and plan for a resilient ocean.
Land and its Uses — Actual and Potential

Because of this concern, and because the panel recognised that land-use is perhaps the overriding facet of environmental policy it was decided to arrange the Seminar recorded in this volume :- Land and its Uses : Actual and Potential An Environmental Appraisal The development of this Seminar was chaired by Professor F. T. Last who was enthusiasticall...
