  2. ILMB’s Vision & Mission VISION: World-leading natural resource service delivery that exceeds the expectations of our clients MISSION: Deliver integrated natural resource services that are leading edge, timely, client-friendly and responsive, that support a vibrant BC economy, healthy communities and a sustainable environment

  3. ILMB’s Principles • Professionalism and courtesy • Innovative and creative – challenge the “status quo” • Accountability and transparency • Responsiveness and reliability • Timely closure, strong finishing skills – driven to close the “deal” • Demonstrated excellence in communication, facilitation & mediation

  4. Higher level of client satisfaction with government services Full disclosure of requirements, compliance steps and costs Increased investment certainty Reduced duplication of services Streamlined “enterprise-wide” application processes Meeting Government’s Objectives “We will focus on citizen-centred service, deregulation, and cross-governmental coordination. There will be a new emphasis on one-window access to government services, through the Internet, tele-help, and front-line offices. We will devote more energy and resources to improving access, to assistance in multiple languages, to expediting investment, and to breaking down barriers that separate citizens from services.” Premier Gordon Campbell June 16, 2005

  5. ILMB and Land and Resource Planning • Strategic Initiatives Division • Regional Land Planning

  6. Strategic Initiatives DivisionPlanning - Victoria Branch Core business focused on: • Legacy plan completion • High-priority strategic land and resource management planning that builds on the New Relationship with First Nations

  7. New Relationship with First Nations • Engaging First Nations to discuss resource information needs and “business drivers” • Compliance with legal obligations for First Nations consultation and accommodation • Capacity building and joint ventures with First Nations

  8. ILMB REGIONAL CLIENT SERVICES DIVISION

  9. Overview Six program areas in Omineca: • FrontCounter BC • Crown Land Adjudication • Crown Land Partnership and Sales • Land and Resource Planning (5 planners) • Land Information Management • Inter-Agency Management Committee

  10. What is FrontCounterBC? A one-stop office for all Natural Resource related clients to access Crown resources (tenures, permits, licenses, Crown grants, etc.). FrontCounter BC offices are in 9 locations throughout the province • multi-channel service delivery (face-to-face, on-line, toll free, fax, mail) • multi-agency coordination and horizontal collaboration

  11. Land and Resource Management Planning • North Coast and Central Coast LRMPs moving towards full implementation (SID) • Lillooet, Morice, Sea-to-Sky and Haida Gwaii/QCI LRMPs at G2G stage (SID) • Mountain Pine Beetle impacts on LRMPs (RCS) • SRMPs and advancement of New Relationship with First Nations (SIDS/RCS)

  12. Key Deliverables • Complete remaining LRMPs (Legacy Plans) • Develop new Land Use Plans (i.e., SRMP’s, Crown Land Plans) as required • Manage updates and revisions to existing LRMP’s and CORE LUP’s as required (i.e. MPB) • Establish Old Growth Management Areas (OGMA’s) and legal objectives consistent with land use plans

  13. Land Use Planning • Executive is developing a New Direction" paper for ILMB Board of interagency deputies & Cabinet. • New Direction is tied to a proposed 3 year budget for planning – basically what we’ll do – the next three years….

  14. New Direction Paper New Direction attempts to address key questions: • Completed plans: Do we need to update and monitor them and if so, what structures, mechanisms and priorities should we use? • Legacy LRMPs: How do we expedite government decisions for the remaining LRMPs and complete the work required to “implement” these decisions. • FRPA planning requirements: How do we resource and meet our current commitments to complete legislated FRPA planning while addressing new planning pressures?

  15. New Direction Paper (Con’t) New Direction attempts to address key questions: • New strategic plans: Should we do new strategic plans and if so, what are the circumstances, priorities, processes and products? • First Nations: How do we address the New Relationship commitments to strategic land use planning with First Nations? • Funding and staffing: What resources are required to implement a new planning direction, and how should they be allocated to meet government priorities?

  16. Summary The only thing that has been constant is MUCH CHANGE! More to come. • LRMP implementation in Omineca was not funded in our base budget this year • This meeting is part of the Biodiversity public consultation and came out of that project $$ pot • Don’t know today…if ILMB will be having an “LRMP implementation” meeting next year.

  17. Recap…. LUCO is gone (pre-2001 LRMP champion) MSRM is gone 2001-2004 (Planning and Info ministry) ILMB is here 2004 - ?…planning is but a small part and New Direction yet to be set

  18. Land and Resource Management Plans – Strategic - Social guidance, development of general direction and establishing protected areas and RMZ intensity resource development • Sustainable Resource Management Plans – Landscape Level soon to be “New Direction….” Detailled planning driven by a business case or conflict resolution need. Has to include funding source. • Operational Planning – such as Forest Stewardship plans, road maintenance

  19. LRMP -- PICs for Strategic Plans (Plan Implementation Committee) Not confirmed yet in New Directions… • Monitoring implementation of existing plan • Is social guidance being utilized? • What has changed ie: MP Beetle? • Resource management issue scoping…. • Not a venting session for operational planning disagreements

  20. Discussion about Implementation • Do you want to risk manage having/not having a fall meeting next year? (Wait for New Direction Paper to be released?) • Do you want to have a March meeting to discuss and strategize an alternative Plan Implementation Committee (PIC) model? Or Merge with SFMP PAG? etc. and talk about plan implementation and expectations. • Think about appointing your one or two of yourselves to be an LRMP chair or co-chair.
