q Just Passing Admiration ™
: For Project Avalanche

—by the Hon. R. G. WILLISTON, Minister of .
: Lands and Forests

The avalanche of

in British Columbia caused many of . us to accept the

results with little more tha

B almost no thought to the sophisticated process that has

| made them possible,
. A: specific example
ae case of the work of the Forest
Service engineers and foresters
in the Peace River -pondage
} area, “We' accept at face value
a the ‘Engineering Services Div.
ision’s © ‘statement’ that: “Site
preparation work continued on
a further. 14,830 acres of navi
gation channels and shoreline
access within the areas to be
@ flooded ‘by the Portage Moun:
| tain Dam.”
But just stop to think a mom:
‘ent: , This project doesn't just
F involve turning a few crews
loose in the forest to cul down
trees. There has to be a cutting
plan and this has to be devised
with vastly different consider-
ations than those given to a
normal logging operation. Be-
cause, each year, the flood Wat.
ers. will take over progressively.
“higher. ground; the -cuttihg pat-
| tern ’hiust be staged ‘to clear the
-land the year before the requir.
éd areas will be. covered by
water. There must be a mini-
mum.loss of commercial timber,
so every reasonable encourage-
ment.and facility must be ‘given
to the-young industry in the
area to take it out.
But even before the site pre-
Paration can start, men, equip-
3! ment, machines, and supplies
must be brought into this still
out-of-the-way region. And -be.
cause the time is limited and
¢ the. work to be done is consid-
erable, not a day must be wast-
’ ed. The work must start each
{ year at the earliest possible
* date and be continued until the
closing in of winter calls a halt.
The foresters and engineers
can't just throw things together
and hope everything will come
out all right, There must be a
work. plan and it must he the
best one it is possible to devise.
For this reason, the’ Forest
’ Service is using what is called
the “Critical Path Method.”
- Basically, this isa way of form-
4. alizing a plan of action beyond
{ an intuitive arrangement.
| For instance, . you might call
the morning activities of a
a household in preparation for
the day ahead an intuitive. ar-
rangement. Largely from pain-
ful experience and habit, every-

and the children prepare for
school. If the-intultive arrange-
ment is a good one there is no
bottleneck at the bathroom: but
if it ia not there is a chaos of
rushed or neglected breakfasts,
forgotten schoolbooks, and Fa-
ther exceeding the speedlimit
to get.to work on time, leaving
behind an harrased and unhap-
py housewife.
Military planners cannot take
these chances.. Launching an
assault on a beach-head de-
mands the most painstakingly

maximum,power of attack ig

ships, landing cragt — all musi

ity. -
In a very ‘similar viay, the
Forest Service approached the
Peace River pondage project,
using the “Critical Path Meth-
od” which was first devised in
1957 to help solve the problems
of the construction. industry
and the contractors in partic-
ular who always seem to be in
volved 1h a race against time. —
In the’ Forest. Service case,
the critical time is the time
available in the Peace. River
pondage area each year to com-
plete a precise amount of work,
Around this all other activities
in connection with the praject
have to be planned ... while
hovering over the heads of the
planners is the constant threat
of adverse weather which could
mean serious reduction in avail:
able work done,
Months ahead of the work
start, the work force has to be
chasen. University students, on
summer employment, are not:
available for the whole of the
work season, so the planners
must adjust their work plan-
accordingly, still meeting the
years’s . total work’ require-
ments. |
