This Forest Development Plan (FDP) has been prepared under section 19(1) of the Nisga’a Forest Act. 

The FDP provides Nisga'a citizens, the general public, government resource agencies, and private interests with information on the location and scheduling of timber harvesting, road construction, road maintenance, road deactivation and other related activities on Nisga'a  Public  Lands.

The FDP outlines forest practices to conserve and manage forest resources and features such as timber, biodiversity, soil, water, fisheries and riparian areas, wildlife, cultural and heritage uses, recreation and tourism, and botanical forest products.

The FDP contains a text document and a series of 1:20,000 and 1:50,000 scale maps.  The complete FDP can be viewed in person at the NLG administration building, by appointment.  Due to restrictions associated with COVID 19, no public open houses will be conducted.
