It is requirement for all Concessionaires / applicants wanting a Concession Agreement to submit a GPS Surveying of intended or operational area. However for the current 9 active concession agreement’s spatial data is missing. The Director of Forestry has therefore written all concessionaires asking them to submit a GPS surveying of agreement before the end of September 2014.  Providing the Government with this data is important as it will help improve avoidance of overlapping concessions and ensure that no exploitation takes place within protected areas or National Parks.

Data can be send to:

The Forestry Division
Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Food Security
At: Director of Forestry, Mr. William Bangura
