Below is a public email that I just received from BC Timber Sales. Thank you SO MUCH to everyone that signed petitions, wrote emails and otherwise made your voices heard. WE WON!!! Greetings: BC Timber Sales (BCTS)–Chinook is cancelling the open house scheduled for July 30, 2017 on Bowen Island. BCTS-Chinook has decided to remove Bowen Island (Salish Forest Development Unit) from its current Forest Stewardship Plan (FSP) proposal, since there are no immediate or mid-term harvest plans for the island, and Bowen Island residents have expressed a desire to develop a community engagement strategy that will exceed the timeframe required for approval of the FSP Best Regards, Enrique Sánchez, R.P.F Planning Forester British Columbia Timber Sales Chinook Business Area
