BC has a new Chief Forester, and he brings with him nearly half a decade of experience in the north.
Shane Berg was named as the province’s next Chief Forester yesterday, after serving as Deputy for the last 5 years.
Prior to that, Berg worked as the Ministry of Forest’s District Manager in Kispiox between 1997 and 2002.
He also filled the same role in Kamloops for nine years, before serving as a Regional Executive Director for BC’s Ministry of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation for six years.
In his new role, Berg will be responsible for determining the annual allowable cut for each of BC’s 71 timber supply areas and tree farm licenses.
