Parliamentary Questions


Question On Notice No. 540 asked in the Legislative Council on 17 February 2022 by Hon Dr Steve Thomas

Question Directed to the: Minister for Regional Development representing the Minister for Forestry
Parliament: 41 Session: 1


Question

(1) Please list the Western Australian forest coupes harvested for the calendar years 2019 and 2020?
(2) For each forest coupe harvested, and by each year of 2019 and 2020, what was:
(a) the expected yield of sawlog for each harvested species; and
(b) the actual yield of sawlog of each harvested species?

Answered on 7 April 2022

(1)   Refer to table listed in answer (2)

(2) (a) The expected yield of sawlog figure is calculated by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions through the strategic inventory figures used for volumes in the Forest Management Plan.  The strategic inventory figure is at a landscape level not at a coupe level.

(2) (b) This table lists coupes recorded as harvested for jarrah and karri sawlogs in the calendar years 2019 and 2020, irrespective of the year they were first listed in the published annual harvest plans.  Minor volumes of sawlogs of other species (such as marri and wandoo) have not been included as coupe-level estimates are not forecast for these species.
