MANAGEMENT PLAN RATES

Woodlot Management Plan -Total cost =$250.00/woodlot + $10.00/ha

Ex: Cost for a 40ha (100 ac) woodlot is $250.00 + $400.00 = $650.00

Owner contribution is 20% of cost - $650.00 X 20% = $130.00 + HST

Woodlot Management Plan with Inventory – Total cost = $325.00 + $15.00/ha

Ex: Cost for a 40ha (100 ac) woodlot is $325.00 + $600.00 = $925.00

Owner contribution is 50% of cost - $925.00 X 50% = $462.50 + HST
