| Abstract/Description or Keywords | This watershed plan for the Cypre Watershed Planning Unit was developed in accordance with the principles and recommendations set out by the Clayoquot Sound Scientific Panel to guide planning for sustainable ecosystem management in Clayoquot Sound. The Plan encompasses all of the Cypre Watershed Planning Unit, an area approximately 24,500 hectares in size, located to the east of Herbert Inlet, to the south of Strathcona Provincial Park and Ursus Valley, to the north of Calmus Passage, and to the west of the Bulson Creek watershed. It does not apply to provincial parks, Indian Reserves, federal lands, or private land. The purpose of the Plan is to map and designate the areas set aside as reserves to protect a range of forest values. The Plan also maps and designates the harvestable area – that is, the land that falls outside of reserves and on which sustainable forest harvesting can take place. Within the harvestable area, special management zones are identified which require that certain conditions and limitations be imposed on harvesting and other management activities in order to maintain special and sensitive values, including cultural, scenic, recreation and tourism values. |
