Old Growth Management Areas (OGMA) Legal - All

Description: 

Legally established and spatially defined areas of old growth forest that are identified during landscape unit planning or an operational planning process. Forest licensees are required to maintain legally established OGMAs when preparing FSPs. OGMAs, in combination with other areas where forestry development is prevented or constrained, are used to achieve biodiversity targets. This spatial view will show all historical transactions (past and present) however the sensitive information will be excluded.

Updated as needed.
