Description
Forest company forest management plans (FMPs) detail when, where and how timber on Alberta Crown land will be managed in order to balance social, economic and environmental needs based on input from the public, Indigenous peoples and interest groups. The forest management planning area under consideration is FMA 6900016, allocated to Weyerhaeuser Company Limited (Grande Prairie) through legislative Order-in-Council (O.C. 503/2007) dated November 14, 2007. The FMP includes the FMA and non-FMA portion of Forest Management Unit (FMU) G16, collectively known as the Defined Forest Area (DFA). The DFA is located entirely within the Upper Peace Land-use Framework planning region in west central Alberta; it falls within the Alpine, Subalpine, Montane, Upper Foothills, Lower Foothills, Dry Mixedwood and Central Mixedwood Natural Subregions.

Usage Considerations
Forest management plans (FMPs) are a requirement of all forest management agreements negotiated between the Government of Alberta and forest companies. The Government of Alberta appraises and approves FMPs based on the Alberta Forest Management Planning Standard. FMPs focus on how activities (i.e., establishing, growing and harvesting timber) of FMA holders and other tenure holders will be managed in order to reduce negative impacts on other resource users and resource values. This is accomplished by managing the forest management activities to create a desirable future forest. FMPs also provide direction to forest operations and include specific areas identified for reforestation and harvesting activities.
