산림청, 강원 평창군 국유림·사유림 170㏊ 산림유전자원보호구역 신규 지정

Quick Look

산림청은 강원 평창군 일원 국유림 147㏊와 사유림 23㏊ 등 총 170㏊를 산림유전자원보호구역으로 신규 지정했다고 밝혔다. 이번 지정으로 약 9천300㏊의 연속된 보호공간이 형성되며, 이는 내장산국립공원과 북한산국립공원보다 큰 규모다. 산림청은 생태적 가치와 보호지역 연결성을 고려해 지정·관리하고, 백두대간 등 주요 산림생태축과의 연계를 통해 보호지역 연결성을 높일 계획이다.

산림청은 강원 평창군 일원 국유림 147㏊와 사유림 23㏊ 등 총 170㏊를 산림유전자원보호구역으로 신규 지정했다고 6일 밝혔다.

이번에 추가 지정된 지역은 산림유전자원보호구역 7개 유형 중 '자연생태계보전지역' 유형으로, 기존 평창과 홍천지역에 지정된 산림유전자원보호구역과 연결된다.

이에 따라 약 9천300㏊의 산림이 연속된 보호공간으로 이어지는데, 이는 내장산국립공원(약 8천㏊), 북한산국립공원(약 7천700㏊)보다 큰 규모다.

산림청은 산림유전자원보호구역의 생태적 가치와 기존 보호지역과 연결성을 종합적으로 고려해 지정·관리하고, 백두대간 등 주요 산림생태축과 연계해 보호지역 연결성을 지속해 높여나갈 방침이다.

생태적 가치가 높은 사유림에 대해서도 산주와 협력을 확대해 민간의 자발적인 산림보전 참여를 활성화하고, 국가와 지역사회, 민간이 함께 생물다양성을 보전할 수 있는 기반을 확대해 나갈 예정이다.

박영환 산림환경보호과장은 "산림유전자원보호구역을 체계적으로 지정·관리하고 '잘 연결된 보호지역 체계'를 구축해 우리 산림의 생물다양성과 생태계 건강성을 높여 나가겠다"고 말했다.
