ALBERTA — Conservationists say a new land-use plan from the province stands to “wipe out” two vulnerable caribou populations in northwestern Alberta. The Alberta Wilderness Association and the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society released a statement on Wednesday decrying the proposed Upper Smoky Sub-regional Plan. The plan will cover an area north of Jasper National Park. …“The timber harvest proposed in the draft Upper Smoky Sub-regional Plan would allow Weyerhaeuser to clearcut the remaining critical winter habitat and eliminate the ability of these caribou to annually migrate to the foothill’s forests,” the statement read. …To help halt caribou declines, the province has increased wolf reduction programs.  …Minister of Environment and Protected Areas Rebecca Schultz’s press secretary said the plan is not final and the draft materials are designed to generate input and feedback from those most impacted. …An online public survey on the new plan will be open until June 25.
