Plenary Session – Setting the Stage for Panels 1 and 2

The Value of Growth and Yield Models to the Operational Forester

Lorne Bedford, Manager Harvest and Silviculture Practices, Resource Practices Branch, FLNRO

Panel 1: Current Issues in Growth and Yield

Moderator: Ian Cameron

Growth & Yield information applied to both stand-level and forest-level analyses in BC. At the stand level, there are G&Y components to decisions about planting density and that application of other silvicultural treatments such as juvenile spacing, commercial thinning and fertilization. G&Y projections and G&Y metrics can be used to formulate management standards such as stocking standards. At the forest level, G&Y predictions are the foundation of the stand-level components applied in TSR and silviculture strategies, and G&Y metrics are used to define key benchmarks such as minimum harvest age.  In this session, the panelists will focus on G&Y issues currently topical in stand-level and forest-level analyses, such as:

  • The linkage between establishment density and the yield and value at harvest.
  • Metrics for minimum harvest age in TSR.
  • Stand-level and forest-level effects of some silviculture decisions.
  • Data that underlie the growth projections used in TSR.
  • How changes in young-stand performance affect yield at harvest.

Plenary Session – Setting the Stage for Panels Three and Four

Managing for Multiple Values in Complex Changing Landscapes

Doug Lewis, Research Section, Thompson – Okanagan, FLNRO-1

Panel 3: Riparian Tree Retention Practices During Forest Harvesting for Max Benefits

Moderator: Doug Lewis

Retaining trees during forest harvesting is a practice that forest professionals can use to manage for multiple resource values in the short term and through stand re-establishment and development. The question of how much and where to focus tree retention to maximize benefits and mitigate potential impacts to resource values is often less well understood. In this panel, speakers will discuss how tree retention can be applied to manage stream channel stability to help ensure water values (water quality, aquatic ecosystems, fish habitat) are maintained. Operational recommendations on where to focus available tree retention budgets during harvest will be discussed.

Panel 4: Important Non-Timber Values

Moderator: Walt Klenner

Silviculture plays a large role in shaping stand development following disturbance and although the main emphasis of silviculture in BC has been and remains focussed on managing stands for timber production, current and future non-timber issues will require developing or implementing silvicultural practices that address non-timber values.  Globally, many jurisdictions manage forested lands primarily for non-timber objectives such as water, visual/recreation, wildland-urban fuel management, etc., with commercial timber production only a by-product of these activities. Our panel speakers will identify current and evolving non-timber issues that they face, and challenge you to integrate managing for these values into existing or novel silvicultural practices to achieve multiple objectives at the landscape level.

2016 SISCO Fall Field Tour

By

September 26 – 28, 2016

Summerland, BC

“Back to the Future”:  Looking at Previously Harvested Stands to Help Predict What Current Harvesting Practices Might Bring in the Future

Agenda:  2016 SISCO Fall Field Tour Brochure

Field Tour Highlights included:

  • 40 year old research trials that provide meaningful long-term results
  • A real-time Drone Demonstration in the field on Wednesday
  • An Entertaining After-Dinner-Speaker on Tuesday
  • This year’s field tour is in the heart of Central Okanagan wine country, and we will explore that industry at our pre-banquet wine tasting on Tuesday night.

Background Information About the Focus of the Field Tour

Recent timber supply analysis completed in the southern interior shows that over the next couple of decades, available timber will largely come from managed stands.  The future of forestry in the interior of BC is changing – the majority of timber will come from these managed forests within the ‘matrix’ – the managed portion of the forested land-base in between reserves or inoperable areas. These forests will also be critical for managing for multiple values; water, forage, wildlife habitat.

The 2016 SISCO Fall Field Tour looked back to a series of partial harvested, thinned and fertilized stands near Summerland, BC.  These stands were harvested in the late 1970’s to early 1980’s and provide a snapshot of what many recently harvested forests may look like in the future.

We asked the questions:

  • Regarding the quantity and quality of timber from these managed stands
    1. Is the volume of timber consistent with projected volumes used in timber supply analysis?
    2. Is the quality of the timber\fibre being generated sufficient to meet market demands?
  • Will these forests provide habitat for a variety of species, and stewardship of other resource values?

There was a live drone demonstration with examples of actual field applications.

Thank you for joining your colleagues for a conversation about silviculture in the Southern Interior!

2016 SISCO Chair

PANEL ONE: Foresters as a Positive Force for Change on the Landscape

The role of the professional forester has changed dramatically over the last half century. Along with the skills required to manage forest stands, a forester in the 21st century must be adept in understanding land-use issues, First Nations concerns, ecosystem management, wildlife management, riparian areas management and the economic impacts of forest management within a variety of different communities throughout BC. This session will highlight some of the important work our foresters are engaged in that are a positive force for change on the landscape.

PANEL TWO: Smarter Forest Fibre Resources Utilization

Large cull piles seen in most cut blocks are a common by-product of most harvesting operations that remove high quality sawlogs. With current and future technologies and a decreasing supply of forest fiber, the material in these cull piles likely represents a resource that can generate revenue and employment, be used for pulp or biofuel (hog fuel, pellets, etc.) and may support small- to mid-scale secondary manufacturing. Such an approach would help increase the utilization of forest resources while addressing concerns about carbon pollution and health issues associated with the smoke generated when this waste material is burned. In this session and a companion discussion session this afternoon, you will hear perspectives on the growing demand for material currently being disposed of by open burning, the important role this material plays in forest ecosystems, and case studies on the potential use of this material.

PANEL THREE: The Role of Social License in Better Forest Management

Social License might be generally defined as the acceptance by a community of a corporation or some corporate activity. The terms acceptance and community are open to interpretation. Acceptance can include formal processes like the granting of regulatory approvals, but may also involve purchasing products, offering informal word-of-mouth promotion or extending unspecified good will. Similarly, the term community is not necessarily constrained by either size or proximity. The forest industry in British Columbia, which operates primarily on public land, has always depended on some form of social license. In this panel, we have speakers who will offer their perspectives on the relationship between social license and the promotion of better management of BCs forests.

2015 FALL FIELD TOUR

By

Managing Root Disease – the Costs and Benefits                                                                                                                    September 15-16,  2015                                                                                                                                                                   Salmon Arm

Are you Stumped About Stumping …?

This year’s fall field tour is a retrospective examination of the ecology and management of root rot infected stands. We will visit both a long-term research trial site and an operational site to see the linkages between research and operational application.

At the research site (Skimikin) we will discuss the ecology of root rot, its impact on site growth and yield, and and the costs / benefits of stumping. At the operational site (White Lake), we will see how treatments were applied and how the stands developed subsequently. We will also hear about some work in progress for identifying diseased stands on the landscape.

Who Should Come …

Planning and development foresters, as well as silviculturists, will benefit from this tour – root disease management begins at the early stages of stand management.

DAY ONE: Tuesday September 15th   

Skimikin Long-Term Research Trials

In 1968 a trial was established near Salmon Arm in the southern interior of British Columbia to determine if whole tree logging reduced mortality in the next rotation on a site infested by root disease. In stumped and not stumped blocks, seedlings of Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, western redcedar and paper birch were planted alone and in all combinations of two species in three 0.04 ha plots per block; western larch and Engelmann spruce were planted on one plot in each block.

The highest survival after 40 years occurred in plots where stumps were removed, especially in those of Douglas-fir alone or in mixture or of spruce or larch.  We will review each species survival and growth and determine the economics of stump removal and species mixtures, and discuss the practical implications of stump removal. We will focus on western redcedar as an alternative species for disease control and discuss some of its economics and silviculture.

On hand to lead the discussion (in order of appearance) will be:

  • Mike Cruickshank, Forest Pathologist, Natural Resources Canada, NRCan Catherine Bealle Statland, MFLNRO Research Scientist
  • Jim Goudie, Stand Modeling, FLNRO
  • Patrick Asante, Economist, FLNRO
  • Cosmin Filipescu, Ecophysiologist, Natural Resources Canada, NRCan
  • Sandy Allen, Regional Coordinator, Natural Resources Canada, NRCan
  • David Rusch, Regional Forest Pathologist, FLNRO

DAY TWO: Wednesday September 16th

White Lake Operational Treatments

At White Lake we will look at sites that were stumped about twenty years ago, to examine and discuss the effectiveness of the treatments, the risks of partial and incomplete stumping, and technical details such as is there a maximum stump size/diameter that can be stumped? Is there an area of risk around stumps? What interactions are created by tree retention areas and site disturbance? And how can we improve our detection techniques and recommendations for root disease once detected?

On hand to lead the discussion (in order of appearance) will be:

  • Jill Werk, Stewardship Forester, FLNRO
  • Harry Kope, Provincial Forest Pathologist, FLNRO
  • Dana Manhard, Timber Pricing Forester, FLNRO
  • Jim Wright, (retired),Silviculture Forester, FLNRO

Join your colleagues for an interesting excursion into the lovely Fall landscapes of the Shuswap.

The tour will be based out of Salmon Arm. The Prestige Inn has rooms set aside for us, and it is the location of our registration evening on Monday night and our banquet on Tuesday night. Buses will leave from, and return to the Prestige Inn.
