Riparian Management Areas. ‌ The IFPA developed a comprehensive riparian layer involving a number of data sources including Forest Cover, TRIM, PEM/TEM mapping and digital orthophotos. The intent of this process was to capture all lakes, rivers and wetlands that exist in the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ TSA so that they were adequately inventoried and accounted for. These riparian areas were then classified and buffered according to the Forest Practices and Range Act standards (Table 19). Reductions to the timber harvesting land base will not be applied for riparian classes where a riparian reserve zone is not required (e.g. S4 streams) as current practices in these riparian areas mainly consist in retaining non-merchantable conifer trees, deciduous trees, shrubs, and herbaceous vegetation within 10 metres of the channel or edge. A review of approved Forest Development Plan (FDP) in the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ TSA indicates that the level of retention in RMZ for all riparian classes varies from site to site from a minimum of 0% basal area retention to a maximum of 100%. Proposed Forest Stewardship Plans (FSP) and some approved FDPs, indicate that a minimum of 25% of the RMZ will be retained where a RRZ is required. Therefore, considering the above and the recommendations contained in the Riparian Management Guidebook, the reduction percentages indicated above will be used for this determination.
