It was agreed that the Forest Practices Code Guidebook, "Coastal Watershed Assessment Procedure (CWAP)" was appropriate to assess the Cameron Watershed study area. While the CWAP is to cover the entire study area, recommendations from the CWAP can apply only to crown and private lands within the Tree Farm License. The Forest Practices Code does not apply to other private lands.

Audience:  Public Only

This assessment encompasses the Cameron River basin upstream of Cameron Lake, slopes draining directly into Cameron Lake, and McBey and Lockwood Creek basins which drain into the Little Qualicum River immediately downstream of Cameron Lake. This total area is referred to in this report as the "Cameron Watershed" and comprises the headwater area of the Little Qualicum River watershed, which drains into the Strait of Georgia at Qualicum Beach north of Parksville. The Little Qualicum River watershed is a designated Community Watershed. The Water Purveyor is the Little Qualicum Waterworks District. There are other water licences within the watershed as well, including Canada Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) on Cameron Lake. The portion of the Community Watershed downstream of this study area is entirely outside TFL 44, and is being assessed separately by the BC Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks (MOELP). It was agreed that the Forest Practices Code Guidebook, "Coastal Watershed Assessment Procedure (CWAP)" was appropriate to assess the Cameron Watershed study area. While the CWAP is to cover the entire study area, recommendations from the CWAP can apply only to crown and private lands within the Tree Farm License. The Forest Practices Code does not apply to other private lands. For futher information regarding this study please contact Western Forest Products (Kerry McGourlick) kmcgourlick@westernforest.com
