# School District 88 has imposed a 6% _non-
m negotiable limit to settle ALL monetary issues, §

The governments of B.C. and
Canada appear to be closer to
ratifying a new Forest Resource

money involved is nowhere near
the $700 million the province was
pushing for.

mS The FRDA now being discussed
a 6by federal Forests Minister Frank
® Oberle and his provincial counter-
| part Claude Richmond would be
$200 million, half from the feds
and half from the province, to be
spent over five years. The previous
agreement, which mainly addressed
the problem of forest lands that
had been cut over a period of
decades and not _ replanted,
involved $300 million over five
years. That term stretched to
seven, with the new agreement

having taken two years so far to

classified as Not Sufficiently
Restocked has been reduced to a
present level of 78,130 hectares,
compared to 106,000 hectares
reported at the end of 1988. Dun-
bar noted that the NSR figures are
applied to lands harvested, burned
or disturbed in some other way
prior to 1982.

Regional manager Bob Friesen
noted that after the first FRDA
was ratified at one point the NSR
inventory in the Prince Rupert
Tegion actually increased at one
point, not through cutting but
because large areas in the southern
half of the Cassiar Timber Supply
Area were re-classified from poor
to medium growing sites after a
forest service survey.

Waren Mitchell, ihe silviculture

issues forester for the ministry in
Victoria, said that Oberle and
Richmond "have agreed to have an
agreement" and the overall con-
tents of the new FRDA are yet to
be worked out. He said it could be
months before anything is signed.

No matter what is in the new
FRDA, Mitchell said, the provin-
cial government is committed to
clearing up the NSR backlog by
the year 2000, with or without
federal assistance.
