“PEM-the-Province” proposition — the business case +Present business case has raised some cautious interest Business case can be broadened & strengthened for other SFM benefits +Need to determine nature of concerns +Need to undertake technical “due diligence” (this workshop as a start) +Present business case has raised some cautious interest Business case can be broadened & strengthened for other SFM benefits +Need to determine nature of concerns +Need to undertake technical “due diligence” (this workshop as a start)

High expectations building for PEM +For many — significant expectations for ecosystem-based inventory information at bargain basement prices! +Greater efficiencies and smarter approaches indeed hold promise +But, need to manage expectations with extreme care +History shows that oversold inventory systems come and go +For many — significant expectations for ecosystem-based inventory information at bargain basement prices! +Greater efficiencies and smarter approaches indeed hold promise +But, need to manage expectations with extreme care +History shows that oversold inventory systems come and go

PEM not unique to BC +Predictive spatial and temporal ecological modeling techniques abound elsewhere too +A number warrant consideration with the BC circumstance +Some of these ideas will be advanced in this workshop as food for thought Additional focus on ecosystem-landscape- hydrological processes …address contemporary SFM questions regarding ecosystem-landscape function, integrity and conservation +Predictive spatial and temporal ecological modeling techniques abound elsewhere too +A number warrant consideration with the BC circumstance +Some of these ideas will be advanced in this workshop as food for thought Additional focus on ecosystem-landscape- hydrological processes …address contemporary SFM questions regarding ecosystem-landscape function, integrity and conservation

PEM challenges how we presently do things +We use inventories and classification systems in ways that were never originally intended +Raises strategic questions regarding rationalization of current inventory product portfolio & tool box +Topics that are of central interest to the FRIC, LUCO and LIICC +We use inventories and classification systems in ways that were never originally intended +Raises strategic questions regarding rationalization of current inventory product portfolio & tool box +Topics that are of central interest to the FRIC, LUCO and LIICC
