The opportunity to submit your review and comment on the Draft Temagami Forest Management Plan 2009 - 2019 is drawing to an end.  The 60-day period for the public to comment on the draft plan ends on Nov. 3, 2008.

FOT filed a request for Issue Resolution, citing concerns with increased road density, lack of protection for species at risk, increased reliance on large clearcuts, logging near Spirit Rock and Obabika River Provincial Park, and decreases to buffers on canoe routes, viewpoints, and heritage trails. Through this, FOT attended a private session with MNR on these issues.  It was apparent that they were unwilling to compromise at that time.

Friends of Temagami needs your voice to speak out for increased protection of Temagami’s wilderness!
