Wildlife Tree Retention Areas Sample Clauses

Wildlife Tree Retention Areas. The primary purpose of WTRAs is to provide stand-level biodiversity attributes and habitat for wildlife tree users on every cut block. In addition to valuable habitat, wildlife tree retention provides a present and future source of coarse woody debris (CWD), a source of native mycorrhizal fungi and locally adapted tree seed, arboreal lichen, and invertebrates. Patch retention also maintains understory shrubs and herbs in an undisturbed state that can result in protection of other elements of biological value and provides for recolonization of the cut block. In general, WTRAs provides for some structural diversity both now and in the future (BC 2006). A total of 131 ha across the SQCF area are designated as WTRA. Legal objectives for WTRA targets are established across the SQCF landbase. The targets are defined as the WTRA percentage required to be retained for each cut block. Areas designated as WTRA will be retained for the long term (i.e. until the trees on the net area to be reforested of the cut block to which the WTRA relates have developed attributes that are consistent with a mature seral condition). The selection of areas for WTRAs will prioritize areas containing wildlife trees or trees with increased biodiversity values (e.g. broken tops, perching platforms, nesting cavities, nests, bear dens) and areas with evidence of wildlife use (e.g. game trails, day beds). Riparian areas which generally contain higher ecological diversity values will also be prioritized for designation as WTRAs. Other objectives, including protection of culturally valued botanicals and plant communities will also be considered when identifying suitable WTRAs. SQCF will operate to meet or exceed the legal requirements for the amount of each cutblock harvested that is retained as WTRA. Consistent with FRPA, FPPR, and the Mamquam and East Xxxx Landscape Unit Plans, the minimum WTRA target percentage is 7%.
