Visual Quality in the Salisbury Creek Area

January 26, 2023
Natural Resource Region: kootenay-boundary
District: selkirk

A Kaslo resident filed a complaint with the Forest Practices Board (the Board) about Cooper Creek Cedar Ltd.’s (CCC) harvesting in the Salisbury Creek area south of Argenta. The complainant believes that CCC’s harvesting is inconsistent with the visual quality objective (VQO).

Board investigators completed a visual impact assessment (VIA) of the harvested area from three significant public viewpoints that CCC had identified in the VIA.

The Board conducts its work throughout British Columbia, and we respectfully acknowledge the territories of the many Indigenous Peoples who have lived on these lands since time immemorial.
