Bagots Forest Plan Consultation

The Bagot’s Forest Plan (490ha) summaries proposals for 4 Forestry Commission Woodlands, Bagots, Kingstone, Harts Coppice and Birch Wood which lie in North East Staffordshire, 16km east of Stafford and 17km west of Burton on Trent. 

The primary objective of this FP is to revert the woodlands back to broadleaves over time while conserving the remaining ASNW, conservation and heritage features and produce sustainable timber yields.

We are asking for your feedback to ensure the objectives are considered and balanced for the proposals being put forward in the new Forest Plan and if anyone has any data sets associated to these woodlands which we need to take into account prior to submissiion for approaval, this is the opportunity.

It is also a requirement that all Forestry Commission woodlands are managed to the high standards needed to meet the UK Woodland Assurance Standard (UKWAS) that in turn ensure sustainable forest management certification of the Public Forest Estate is maintained.

The Forest Plan is available to download below in PDF format on A4 or alternatively viewable online within the Survey.

This part of the consultation will run for 4 weeks until 26 February 2016.

Any comments should be submitted through the online survey form before the closing date.

Feedback received after the closing date may not be able to be considered.
