Manage product harvest timing, location and user-types

Approach

Manage product harvest timing, location and user-types.

Tactics

Monitor and adaptively manage products and related vegetation types (e.g. salal

bear grass); track changes over time to inform permitting for sustainable harvest levels.

Assess shifting use patterns for cross-resource impacts (wildlife

etc.)

Redirect use away from highly vulnerable areas.

Determine impacts from increased access.

Sensitivity

Shift in phenology may lead to changes in timing and availability of special forest products- potentially leading to conflicting uses between subsistence/ heritage/ and commercial uses - or leading to higher intensity of human impact.

Strategy

Increase management flexibility and adapt strategies to new conditions
