Map 12 shows the distribution of legal and non-legal OGMAs in BC. As shown in the inset map, each OGMA is assigned a unique identifier number that is used for tracking purposes.

Additional Information • Landscape Unit Planning Guide (1999). Discussion Although the original intent of the 1999 Landscape Unit Planning Guide was to create legally established OGMAs throughout the province, several factors have resulted in a mix of legal and non-legal OGMAs. Plan areas that do not have any spatial OGMAs identified (or regional nonspatial orders) are covered by the Provincial Non-Spatial Old Growth Order. Work is underway in the province to legalize some of the OGMAs that are currently non-legal. It is anticipated that the Fort St. John and Mackenzie LRMP areas may have legally established OGMAs in place by 2012. Legally established OGMAs provide protection for critical old growth habitat. Where no legally established OGMAs exist, licensees can establish their own OGMAs, as long as they comply with the Provincial Non-Spatial Old Growth Order, or other regional orders that supersede the provincial order. In many cases, non-legal OGMAs are created collaboratively between licensees and government, and are included in Forest Stewardship Plans. 59 Presently, legally established OGMAs are only applicable to forestry activities regulated under FRPA. However, Sections 103 and 104 of the newly passed Oil and Gas Activities Act provide authority for government to establish OGMAs for the purposes of oil and gas activities. 59 In areas with more frequent natural forestry stand-replacing events, such as a beetle infestation or wildfire, establishing a legal reserve at the landscape scale may not serve their intended purpose over time. Planners and practitioners may choose instead to establish a non-area-specific old growth retention strategy to manage for biodiversity.
