The Chilcotin Military Training Area (CMTA), located north of the small community of Riske Creek and about 47 kilometers west of Williams Lake, consists of approximately 41,000 hectares of land owned by the Department of National Defence (DND) and is used as a military training area. The management of the forest resources on this property is the responsibility of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND) through an Order-in-Council P.C. O.I.C 1961-807.
In the summer of 2017, approximately 400 hectares of Douglas and Fir dominated stands in the north east corner of the property were damaged by wild fire. In addition, in the last decade, this property has also been adversely impacted by Mountain Pine Beetle.
Logging activities undertaken under various Timber Permit over the past 2 years has left some areas not satisfactory re-stocked. There is no plan to stop logging activities within the CMTA in the near future. As a result, DIAND has initiated a reforestation program on the property as part of DIAND’s due diligence to rehabilitate the forested land base.
DIAND is looking to establish a contract to provide the services for one growing period. The growing period shall begin on or about February 26, 2018 to grow 1+0 seedlings and to carry out nursery tree seedling growing services in support of the reforestation plans on the CMTA Lands.
