Forest Genetics Council Membership Structure

The Forest Genetics Council represents the agencies that manage, produce, and use improved reforestation materials in British Columbia. These include the forest industry and Ministry of Forests and Range, seed producers, seed users (i.e., non-orchard owners), and researchers.

Each stakeholder group nominates individual(s) to represent it on the Council. Forest industry representatives are to be affiliated with both seed users and seed producers on the coast and in the interior, and are nominated by forest industry associations. The Chief Forester of B.C. appoints councillors from these nominees, and two individuals to co-chair the Forest Genetics Council. One co-chair is chosen from the Ministry of Forests and one from the forest industry.
