The TSA boundary encompasses TFLs 1 and 41, part of the Nisga’a private land under the Nisga’a Final Agreement, and several large protected areas along the outer boundary of the TSA.  These protected areas include Gitnadoix River Park, Foch Gilttoyees Park, and the Kitlope Heritage Conservancy.

The Kalum TSA borders the Nass, Kispiox, Bulkley, Morice and North Coast TSAs.  The Kalum TSA includes the communities of Terrace and Kitimat and is administered by the Kalum District.
