ISO
West Chilcotin Forest Products Ltd. is proud to be registered to
Management System ISO 14001:1996 SIC code 0859, 2411, 0811

The International Standards Organization (ISO) 14001 series of international environmental management system standards provide organizations around the world with guidance on how to manage the environmental aspects of their activities, products, and services effectively. The ISO 14001 standard maps out the core requirements for an Environmental Operation. By using these standards, an organization may plan, monitor and continually improve its competitive position and environmental performance. The CSA's Sustainable Forest Management System Standard represents a new era in forest management and accountability. Voluntary registration of a Defined Forest Area to Can/CSA shows the world that the area is being managed according to sustainable forest management principles and criteria.

Registration to this national standard is a very large undertaking for any forest management operation. Being registered means the organization has engaged in a rigorous public participation process and has established and maintained a management system to continually improve their forest management performance towards sustainable forest management criteria.

The ISO standard is applicable to West Chilcotin Forest Products Ltd.'s woodlands operations department and Yun Ka Whu'ten Holdings Ltd.'s field operations department. The Environmental Management System helps us to achieve sound environmental performance by assessing and controlling potential impacts to the environment.

We are very proud to be a part of this strict management process!
