		In response to this projection a working group associated with the study noted that the 8-10 per cent reduction in annual water yield would only occur if all suitable cleared land was converted to fast growing plantation and that that situation was unlikely to occur.
		This means that the provisions of the Forest Practices Code, and specifically those relating to streamside reserves, erosion control, soil management, and pollution control, now relate to most forest clearing operations.
		Under the Regional Forest Agreement provision was made for protection of certain forest types on private land that were not adequately protected on public land.
