Prescriptions, Burn Planning and Operations
British Columbian communities are almost always surrounded by – or living within – forests and forest ecosystems.
This means that communities must plan, strategize and implement some level of forest activity within their jurisdictions. We help consult on many of the commonly needed forest management services requested by our clients.
