1.0: INTRODUCTION1.1 Purpose and Scope of PlanThis revised Forest Management Plan is called the “10 -Year Forest Management Plan forTangkulap-Pinangah Forest Management Unit No. 17A”. It is a second official revision.The first official revision was carried out in 2008 and was approved by the Director ofForestry on the 26 th February, 2009 from an earlier plan that was approved in 2006.This second revision Plan was done to mainly include certain issues that wereinadequately addressed in the first revision. The revised Plan defines the scope andprescribed activities for the management of FMU 17A over a 10-year period beginningfrom 1 st January, 2006 to 31 st December, 2015. The management of FMU 17A comesdirectly under the Sabah Forestry Department and the Deramakot District ForestryOfficer is responsible for the implementation of this FMP.Consistent with its legal designation as a Class II Production Forest, the primary longtermgoal in managing FMU 17A is to manage the forest based on integrated multipleuses of forest resources, including the sustainable production of timber, in compliancewith all existing rules, regulations and prescribed constraints. Although the statedplanning horizon is 10 years, the Plan seeks to optimize economic, social, andenvironmental benefits to the State, as well as to the other stakeholders, over andbeyond the current planning period.1.2 General backgroundFMU 17 consists of 90,635 ha, which is divided into 3 portions. These are FMU 17A(50,070 ha), which consists of Tangkulap Forest Reserve and Sg. Pinangah ForestReserve (partly), which is located east or Karamuak River, FMU 17B that consists of32,010 ha of Sg. Pinangah Forest Reserve (partly), which is located west of KaramuakRiver and FMU 17C Sg. Mangkuwagu Forest Reserve (8,335 ha), which is located west ofSg. Pinangah FR (see Figure 1.1).This FMP will only cover FMU 17A. A large portion of FMU 17A is heavily degraded dueto poor logging practices in the past. Thus, intensive restoration in many compartmentsis needed to enhance the timber productivity of the area. The SFD has adopted a newmanagement planning approach that includes consultation with stakeholders through theestablishment of a Consultative Committee. Based on this consultative process, theinformation that follows in this 10 – Year Forest Management Plan (FMP) describes thesystem by which the SFD will pursue sustainable forest management (SFM). Therestoration of FMU 17A will have the goal of re-establishing high quality natural forestsintegrated with intensively managed planted areas. To ensure management standards ofhigh quality, the SFD will engage a third party certification body to certify the1
management of the FMU 17A according to FSC standards along with Climate, Communityand Biodiversity Project Design Standards (the “CCB Standards”) or Voluntary CarbonStandard for carbon sequestration as applicable.Figure 1.1: Location Map FMU 17 A /B /C1.3 Policy StatementThe SFD is committed to the basic principles of sustainable forest management, byensuring that activities in FMU 17A are environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial,and economically viable.The SFD’s forestry policy statements are as follows:• FMU 17A will be managed under sound forest management practices in accordancewith the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Principles and the biological, social andeconomic principles defined by the International Tropical Timber Organization(ITTO), the Malaysian Criteria and Indicators (MC&I) of the Malaysian TimberCertification Council (MTCC), now known as Malaysian Timber CertificationScheme (MTCS) and in conformity with the existing State forest policies,environmental policies, legislation and regulations.2
