Rosliston Forest Plan 2015 to 2025

Forest Plans define the long term vision for a woodland or a collection of woodlands and set out how management will move towards achieving this vision over the next fifty years.

We would like to invite you or your organisation to leave some feedback on our proposed Forest Plan covering Rosliston Forest and Betts Wood in the National Forest, Derbyshire.  This forms part of our consultation with stakeholders, that helps to ensure that we achieve an appropriate balance of objectives.

The Plan for Rosliston Forest has come up for renewal.  We are therefore asking for your feedback to ensure the objectives are considered and balanced for the proposals being put forward in the new Forest Plan.

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 can be viewed and is available for download when you respond to the consultation below.

This part of the consultation will run for 5 weeks until 28 August 2015 after which time the plan wil be finalised and submitted for approval.

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.

A public 'Drop in Meeting' has been arraged at Rosliston Visitor Centre DE12 8JX between 15:30 and 19:30 on Wednesday 19 August 2015 where the public can come along and discuss the plan proposals with Forerstry Commission staff.
