In our January update, we begin by thanking community forest leaders across BC for their continued commitment and resilience. We also share several internal updates, including new team capacity focused on wildfire resilience, communications, and planning for our Indicators Report and upcoming conference. Read important policy and reporting updates, including changes to the provincial Logging Residue and Waste Measurement Procedures Manual, along with a reminder to participate in the annual Logging Cost Survey, which plays a key role in stumpage calculations. We highlight progress on wildfire risk reduction, including funding opportunities supported through our partnership with the BC Wildfire Service. Member news includes updates on tenure expansion for the Nakusp and Area Community Forest. Safety and well-being remain a priority, and we share information on free mental health supports available to forestry workers, along with the latest WorkSafeBC resources. Finally, don’t miss new tools and resources, sector news, and upcoming events, including our 2026 Conference and AGM in Vernon.
