The Forest and Range Practices Act and its regulations govern the
activities of forest and range licensees in B.C. The statute sets the
requirements for planning, road building, logging, reforestation, and grazing.
FRPA maintains high levels of protection for forest values including
watersheds and wildlife habitat, and creates efficiencies for both government
and industry through streamlined planning processes.
FRPA encourages innovation by skilled resource professionals and holds industry
responsible for outcomes. Combined with rigorous compliance and enforcement, the Act and regulations will contribute to high quality forest management and sustainable
environmental values for future generations.
