Good Neighbour Charter

12 Nov 2009

The Charter has been developed by Tasmanian forestry companies in consultation with local government, regional authorities, farming and tourism groups.  The Charter explains how we will communicate with our neighbours.

We seek to engage our neighbours in constructive and cooperative dialogue based on mutual trust and respect. Commercial forestry is the harvesting and establishment of native forest and plantations.  This may include the construction of roads and quarry operations.

All our operations will meet or exceed the requirements of the Forest Practices Act and all other relevant legislation and state policies.  The Forest Practices Code is administered by the Forest Practices Authority.
