The series consists of timber sale harvesting licences (TSHL) from the 100 Mile House Forest District. Timber sale harvesting licences were first introduced in 1967 and provided individuals and businesses with a permit to cut a volume of timber. This series documents the Government’s administration of timber licences during the period of 1963-1990. Each file contains correspondence, reports and may also contain maps of the cutting area. The files also contain the TSHL application, cutting permit, timber value appraisals and reappraisals, stumpage rate notices, cutting plan maps, charts, clearance status inquiries, and inspection reports. The files are numbered with the licence number and, in many cases, a cutting permit number. The records have been classified as 19590-45 in the Forest Operational Classification System (ORCS). The ministries responsible for these records, and the years that they were responsible, are: Dept. of Lands, Forests and Water Resources (1962-1975) Dept. of Forests (1975-1976) Ministry of Forests (1976-1986) Ministry of Forests and Lands (1986-1988) Ministry of Forests (1988-2005)
