Woodlot licenses open

in Kalum district |

TERRACE The Kalum
Forest District office recently
Stated that, for the first time in

_ two years, applications will be
accepted for woodlot licenses i in
the district.

Norm Parry, Small Business
Forester for the local office, said
the program has beén reopened
here to allocate the Kalum
district’s full allowable woodlot
license annual cut of 4,500 cubic
meters. Three woodlots are
presently operating here with an
annual cut of 3,000 cubic
meters, he said.

The intent of the woodlot
license program is to encourage
private citizens and small | groups
‘with forestry knowledge and ex-
perience to apply: for. Crown

timber or to establish timber.

management on privately owned -

land. The program is aimed at
small business operations, witha
stipulated maximum of 400 hec-
tares for each license issued for

Crown timber. Individuals who -

own timber processing facilities
like sawmills are not eligible.

‘‘The criteria used for
evaluating woodlot license. ap-
plications are the amount and
quality of private land proposed
for inclusion, the proximity of

‘tthe applicant’s permanent

residence to the proposed
woodlot, and the amount of ex-
perience or training the appli-
cant has in forest management,”’
Parry said. He added that
woodlot licenses are issued for

stands of Crown timber that

would not be suitable for inclu-
sion in other forms of forest

tenure, Access must. already be

in place for” the proposed
woodlot, and the Property must
be able to sustain a. minimum
annual cut of 200 cubic meters,
he said.

The deadline for applications . |

is Nov. 27. After the applica-
tions have been evaluated, the

successful applicants will be te-

quired to prepare a management
and working plan for the license

area. Assistance in preparing the. |

plan is available through the

Forest. Service or from private. q

forest consultants.

TERRACE — Roy Greening of
Skeena Holidays recently receiv-
ed a letter from a satisfied

’ customer from Japan who had

visited Terrace in August.
Skeena Holidays provides

packages for Japanese ‘tourists

who wish to visit Terrace, for

fishing or sight-seeing. Whole

families can be accommodated
by the company and many activ-
ities are offered,

\. According | to Roy Greening,
fishing seems to be a Major at-

traction, but there are many
things to do for the tourists who
haven’t come to enjoy the Nor-
thwest sport. Picnics at Lakelse
Lake, shopping, sight-seeing,
and touring places like Heritage
Park are some of the many ac-

tivities which can be enjoyed by &

these visitors.

The Kaneko family recently &

spent some time in Terrace, en-
joying the hospitality of the peo-
ple; while Mr. Kaneko enjoyed &
fishing, the rest of the family |

took part in some touring
around the. Terrace area. Their
five-day adventure resulted in a
beautiful 24-pound steelhead,

some souvenirs and a new per- §

spective of Canada.

“According to- Greening Ter-
race residents really made the §

visitors welcome and the Ka-
neko’s were surprised to see such
hospitality. In the letter, Mrs.

Kaneko suggested that she'd like od

to come back next summer to
take up where they left off.

Single company ~
_ taxi service
to continue

TERRACE — The B.C. Motor
Carrier Commission has rejected
both the initial application and
an appeal by the proprietor of
Thornhill-based Chimo Delivery
to start a second taxi company in
Terrace.

Ada Solowoniuk said expan-

sion into. a passenger service

would be a natural move for her

successful delivery business, and

she added that the application to

_ put four taxis on the road was

supported and encouraged by
many of her local clients.

After the Motor Carrier Com-
mission refused the application
on June 23, Solowoniuk re-
quested and received an appeal
hearing in Terrace on Sept. 9.
According to the minutes of the
hearing, she stated the proposed
operation would employ eight
drivers and three dispatchers to
provide a 24-hour service. A
detailed business plan, however,
was not presented.

The document states that
general complaints were filed
against the existing taxi service,
Kalum Kabs, regarding service

delays but the complaints were
not specific to time, date and
place.

The sole objection to the ap-
plication was Aisla Henderson,

proprietor of Kalum Kabs, who §

argued that the current volume
of taxi business in the. area is
“insufficient to keep all of the
cabs she had licensed employed

full time’’, despite Solowoniuk’s:

contention that she intended to

provide a supplementary rather ff

than competing service. Hender-
son also insisted that delays. in
service are the exception rather
the rule, with an average

customer wait being about ten J

minutes.

The Motor Carrier Commis-
sion upheld its original rejection
of the application, stating
“there is no convincing evidence
that Terrace does not have an
adequate taxi service’’.

Terrace remains the only ma-
jor community in the Northwest

with a one-company taxi in- §

dustry.
Solowoniuk said she is con-
sidering filing a new application.
