Forest Practices Board

British Columbia's worker protection agency says a planned burn by the province's wildfire service during the devastating 2023 fire season could have killed or injured multiple firefighters who became "trapped by extreme fire behaviour" that cut off their escape.

British Columbia's forests watchdog says a complaint about "excessive" logging has led to a call for the province to improve how it manages watersheds.

A Forestry Practices Board has highlighted concerns with the future of old growth forests or any new ones on Quadra Island following an investigation into three logging companies.

An investigation by British Columbia's forest practices watchdog has found the provincial government didn't take steps to protect a local species at risk when it allowed for extensive logging in the central Interior.

The fire in Logan Lake started like so many others in B.C.'s worst wildfire season on record — a smouldering campfire, not fully extinguished, sparked flames that spread across the forest floor.
