The Williams Lake TSA is one of the largest TSAs in the province, covering approximately 4.87 million hectares.  It is located in the Fraser Basin and Interior Plateau between the Coast Mountains on the west and the Cariboo Mountains on the east.  The TSA includes the communities of Williams Lake, Alexis Creek and Horsefly.  The Williams Lake TSA is administered by the Cariboo-Chilcotin District.

Current Timber Supply Review (TSR)

Effective April 18, 2007, the current allowable annual cut (AAC) for the Williams Lake TSA is 5,770,000 cubic metres.  This AAC will remain in effect until a new AAC is determined, which must take place within 10 years of this determination, unless the redetermination date is formally postponed according to the provisions of Section 8 of the Forest Act.

Public input is a vital part of the timber supply review process.  A data package was released on April 11, 2013.  Feedback is welcome on any issues related to the timber supply review for the Williams Lake TSA.
