Forest Management Plan Renewal Schedules

 

The renewal schedules are organized by the scheduled plan renewal year (i.e. scheduled year of implementation) and includes the applicable lead MNR District and MNR Region.

 

New plans are normally scheduled to be implemented in April of the applicable plan renewal year. For those planning processes being initiated this year, an "Invitation to Participate" notice will normally be issued between January and May (approximately two years in advance of the scheduled plan renewal year).
