Notes on the reports:
The reports provided below use modern HCV interpretations, and are extensively linked to web sources. The links help to ensure that references stay up to date. As we all know, HCV reports are living documents and need to reflect the current situation in the forest. In Canada, HCV reports are based on Forest Management Plans, legislation (these are all public forests) and science.
External REVIEW: A requirement of FSC, most reports that I have written contain the "peer" external review in the Appendix; these reviews follow the HCV Resource Network peer review protocol.
PLEASE let us know if you download one of these reports, and please acknowledge if you use the formats or some of the ideas from one of these reports. If you have questions about the format or requirements please contact me.
Ottawa Valley Forest HCV review below, follows the format of the HCV Resource Network. The original HCV report is authored by Alf van Dyke formerly of OVF Inc. and it contains the review by TC. Several reports have been updated by other authors, such as Abitibi River Forest by Paul Fantin.
Do not assume that these copies of the reports are FINAL or current. Contact the senior author for confirmation.
