South West native forests

The Forest Products Commission (FPC) is supporting the State Government’s efforts to manage the impacts to forest health from climate change through its contribution to ecological thinning as prescribed by DBCA under the Forest Management Plan (FMP) 2024-2033.
Last updated:

In line with the FMP 2024-2033, commercial logging in WA’s native forests ended on 31 December 2023. 

FPC supports forest health outcomes through managing ecological thinning activities in native forest areas on behalf of Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA).

Under the direction of DBCA, timber will only be taken from WA’s native forests for ecological thinning to maintain forest health and from approved mine site operations.

Find out more about the FMP and ecological thinning on the DBCA website.
