TERRACE — Increased money.
for j silvicultural: “projects « will

allokathe forest service to do-a:
better job and could lead to-the
establishment of. a permanent,
skilled workforce, says Kelum
district silviculturist Bob
Wilson,

Outlining what the provincial
government's recently announc-
ed, five-year forest renewal pro-
gram means to the district,
Wilson said tree spacing con-
tracts would be doubled this
year to approximately 400ha,
This year will also be the first
for pruning projects with some
300ha being treated in this way.

Add in spacing work to be
undertaken by forest companies
and total spending on the two
silvicultural treatments would
be ‘‘well in excess of $1
million” in 1991, he said.

While this will mean more
work for successful contractors
— all these jobs go out to tender
— Wilson said the forest service
would also try to spread that
work over a longer period.

Spacing work is usually done
from April to. November “and
then they’re out of work,” he
pointed out, Pruning could be
delayed until the winter months
to give the workers some con-
tinuity of employment.

That, in turn, should make
the silviculture work more at-
tractive for contractors and
employees, Wilson said.

“The beiter business oppor-
tunity we can make silviculture,
the better off we're going -to
be,”” he explained. ‘Ideally we
want local

Anticipating the amount of require skilled ‘people i in :
