Show us the science behind clearcuts on Crown land close to the pending Shi=

Click on image for larger versionSome naturalist friends expressed concerns=
 about cutting by WestFor in the vicinity of the pending Shingle Lake Natur=
e Reserve in SW Nova Scotia. I followed up by consulting the Harvest Plan M=
ap Viewer (HPMV) and past notifications about these harvests, and then cons=
ulted other online maps to gather information about the location of the Nat=
ure Reserve, past cuts on public and private lands, and on some landscape l=
evel forest characteristics.The HPMV and related notifications from NSDNR p=
rovide information about particular proposed harvests on particular sites i=
n the immediate future, but relevant information about longer term plans by=
 the Licensee and about landscape level forests characteristics and DNR pla=

be few brakes on massive cutting of the still relatively abundant old, mult=
