    The purpose of this RFQ is to qualify Consultants for the following Services:
    The Forest and Range Evaluation Program (FREP) is a foundational element of the Forest and Range Practices Act (FRPA)Its vision is to collect and communicate trusted and scientifically robust natural resource monitoring information to inform decision making and improve resource management outcomes.

    The FREP Stand-Level Retention Protocol outlines a methodology for collecting data about stand structure, retained dispersed trees, wildlife tree retention areas, and coarse woody debris within harvested cutblocks.  The data collected helps determine whether Forest and Range Practices Act (FRPA) standards and practices are meeting government objectives for stand-level biodiversity.
