The Forestry Revitalization Plan shifts timber processing to maximize value across regions and opens markets to smaller firms, community forests, woodlot operators and First Nations. It reallocates 20 percent of long term cutting rights, aiming for 45 percent on open market, with a $75 million worker support fund and $200 million for fair compensation.
The BC forest sector sustains over 600 mills across 150 communities with an average worker salary and benefits around 67 thousand dollars in 1999. Secondary manufacturing employs 20 thousand people, generating about 4.6 billion in sales. Exports reached 14.2 billion in 2001. Planting 200 million trees yearly, logging remains under a quarter percent of BC’s forest area.
