QuestionView source ↗
This is a repeat of a question I asked the minister several weeks ago. (1) Is the Forest Products Commission responsible for assessing the log resource at all mine sites in state forest and timber reserves prior to the commencement of mining operations; and, if not, who is? (2) Is the Forest Products Commission responsible for the sale of all available sawlogs from bauxite mine sites in state forest and timber reserves; and, if not, who is? (3) Does the Forest Products Commission have an estimate of the annual volume of jarrah sawlogs available from bauxite mine sites in state forest and timber reserves? (4) If yes to (3), what is it? (5) If no to (3), why not? (6) Have the jarrah sawlogs coming from bauxite mine sites been included in the figures for the sustained yield of jarrah sawlogs in the draft 2004-2013 forest management plan? (7) If no to (6), why not? Hon KIM CHANCE
AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of this question. I do now have an answer, I am pleased to say. (1) No. Areas proposed for mining in state forest and timber reserves are included in the sample frames for the strategic inventories managed by the Department of Conservation and Land Management. These inventories are used to generate indicative yields for areas to be harvested in advance of mining. (2) Yes. (3) The annual volume of jarrah sawlogs generated from clearing in these coupes varies with the relative structure and quality of the forest, as well as in the area cleared each year, but has generally been in the range of 4 200 to 10 300 cubic metres annually in recent years. That is about the best estimate I can provide. I could have provided the member with an average, I suppose, and I still can if she would prefer that. (4) See the answer to (3). (5) Not applicable. (6) Yes, sawlogs generated from advised mining operations are included in the figures for the sustained yield of jarrah sawlogs in the draft forest management plan. (7) Not applicable.
