Goals and Management Objectives Forest Management on Prince Edward Island (P.E.I.) means different things to different people. Public Forest Lands are managed for a variety of reasons including timber and non- timber values, wildlife enhancement, soil and water preservation, demonstration techniques, training and recreation and aesthetics. The primary goal for management of P.E.I. Public Forest Land is to enhance the overall forest quality. To accomplish this, it may be necessary to remove some of the lower quality trees on the property and nurture those of higher quality. This will in turn improve genetic quality, species distribution and diversity through careful tree selection and natural regeneration. Allowing acceptable growing stock the chance to thrive and provide a seed source for the surrounding areas will ensure that quality natural regeneration has an opportunity to establish. Enhancement or enrichment planting may be necessary in areas where there is inadequate or unsuitable natural regeneration. Trees native to P.E.I. that are suitable to the site conditions will be chosen for any required reforestation on the property. Prescribing treatments in some stands while leaving others untreated will provide for a range of forest types. Converting stands from a single species to multiple species is desirable. This can be accomplished by retaining some of the natural regeneration in areas that have been previously planted and by planned tree selection in stand improvement treatments. Planted and natural stands on the property will be assessed for health and growth of desired species on an on-going basis. This information will be used to determine when and where future treatments will be carried out. Through time, a favourable healthy mixture of short-lived and long-lived species will provide for an abundance of quality forest products, biodiversity, wildlife, and recreational opportunities as well as a range of ecological goods and services (such as clean air and water). 2

Property Overview Location Property # 49650 is located between the Warren Road and Route # 14, in the community of Cape Wolfe, P.E.I., (Appendix A). The total area of this property is 18.2 hectares (44.8 acres) and the midpoint of the property is Latitude N 46.71350 decimal degrees, Longitude W -64.39401 decimal degrees. Past Information Local records and previous aerial photography show that little has changed with regards to the forested land upon this property. There are three agricultural fields on the property that combine to total five hectares in area. These fields are currently leased to a local farmer. To better illustrate this 1974 photography can be seen in Appendix B. Property Information The information in Appendix C has been taken from the 2010 Corporate Land Use Inventory. An explanation of forestry code meanings can be seen in Appendix D. Any stands that have proposed silvicultural treatment prescriptions are to have on-ground stand assessments completed prior to any work being started. This on-ground assessment information is included in this plan as updated stand tally sheets (Appendix E) and supplements the extrapolated data where applicable. A topographic map of the property shows the general terrain profile, the ranges in elevation and the plantations currently on the property (Appendix F). 3

Wetland and Watercourses A 300 metre section of Pollards Brook is located at the western end of this property. The water flows from east to west, eventually ending up in the Northumberland Strait. This observation can be viewed in Appendix A. Property Access An 1100 metre class 2 woods road provides access to this property from the Warren Road. This wood road may have to be extended at some point to provide access to more of the woodlot, however, there are no immediate plans to do this. Ongoing road maintenance will be required to keep the road in a useable condition. This will include keeping the right-of-way clear of any brush or trees, repairing rutting on the road, repairing any wet areas that restrict access, and any other maintenance required to keep this road usable. The existing road on the property can be seen on Appendix A. Property Boundaries This property is bounded on the north and south by private land. The east boundary fronts on the Warren Road and the west boundary fronts on Route # 14. Fire Protection This property is located within the jurisdiction of the O Leary Fire Department. The amount of personnel and equipment used to fight any forest fires will depend greatly upon the size and severity of the fire. Protection of our woodland from forest fire is the responsibility of the Forestry Division and our local community fire brigades. In the Western District, there is a 900 gallon (gal) four wheel drive forestry fire truck housed at each of the Wellington and West Point Fire Departments. These heavy duty 4

trucks are available to assist the local fire department responsible for this area. Additional forestry fire trucks, off road tracked vehicles, portable pumps and specialized forest fire suppression equipment are available if needed. Pollards Brook that is located at the western end of the property would be a suitable site to setup a portable fire pump system. Planting and Silviculture There are four plantations on the property. It is recommended that any trees planted on the property be assessed at regular intervals. These assessments will determine if the planted trees require manual maintenance or fill planting as specified in the Forest Management Standards manual (Eco- Manual). A list of all silviculture treatments completed on the property from 1991 to present is shown in Appendix G. Proposed Treatments The 2006 Forest Policy Moving to Restore a Balance in Island Forests lays out the framework for Public Land Forest management. The Eco-Manual provides details for prescribed treatments. All work completed on this property must comply with that manual. Table 1 provides a summary of the prescribed treatments on this property. This table will be updated as required when additional treatments are prescribed. For a better understanding of the treatments prescribed, a more detailed explanation is available in the Eco Manual, (www.gov.pe.ca/go/eco-manual). Please note that there are two Permanent Sample Plot s located on this property. Permanent Sample Plots (PSPs) are used to measure characteristics of forest stands (e.g. diameter growth rates, height, regeneration, soils). Plots are generally small (1/50 ha) and have trees that are individually numbered, which are measured on a scheduled three year interval. PSPs are established in various forest stand types, ownerships, and historical treatments, which allows for predictions of volume growth rates and stand decline at various scales. The PSP network, comprising of approximately 350 paired-plots, is an important component of 5

sustainable forest management on Prince Edward Island. The two PSP s on this property are located in stand # 4559. Any additional information may be obtained by contacting a Provincial Forest representative at the District Forestry Office in Wellington. Table 1. Proposed Treatment Summary.
