The Forests Ministry says the deferral protects almost 1,200 hectares or Crown land in the Fairy Creek watershed.

The order was first issued in 2021 at the request of the Pacheedaht First Nation , whose territories encompass the entire watershed.

Protests in Fairy Creek began after logging permits were granted in 2020 , allowing Teal Cedar Products to cut timber.
