flag BC expands timber access to stabilize forestry amid supply decline.

flag British Columbia is proposing legislative changes to increase wood fibre supply by expanding access to timber damaged by wildfires, insects, and windstorms. flag The amendments aim to add up to 17,700 truckloads of fibre, allowing BC Timber Sales to auction contracts for thinning and salvage operations. flag The province hopes these measures will stabilize the forestry sector, which has faced a significant supply decline and mill closures, while continuing to push for a long-term softwood lumber agreement with the U.S.
