New right-to-information documents show the state government has identified five parcels of native forest, totalling nearly 10,000 hectares, that it wants to make available for logging at short notice. The parcels were set aside as future reserve land under the 2012 Tasmanian Forests Agreement but reclassified as Future Potential Production Forest by the Liberals in the lead up to last year's election. While the location of the five forestry parcels has been kept secret, the Tasmanian Greens and the Wilderness Society say they have identified them and estimated the area to be 9,557 hectares.
