The Central Interior Logging Association (CILA) is the official voice of the forest harvesting sector across the Central and Northern Interior Regions. CILA members include independent logging, log-hauling, road building, bio-mass producers and processors, woodlot owners, silviculture contractors and service and supply companies from 100 Mile House in the south, to the Northwest Territories in the north, and from the Alberta Border to the Hazeltons in the west.
The CILA represents its members on safety, government policy and environmental issues, and provides liaison with First Nations, forest companies and various interest groups to encourage a strong and progressive forest contracting and supply sector. The Association provides up-to-date communication on issues of importance to its members as well as a number of programs, services and benefits designed to reduce CILA members' cost of doing business. All activities undertaken by the CILA have these four goals in mind:
- to help members stay viable and competitive
- to help members be as efficient and innovative as possible
- to strengthen the Association as the voice for the sector
- to strengthen the forest industry in the central interior

The CILA has partnered with the Carbon Offset Aggregation Cooperative to develop a fuel efficiency program that helps you reduce fuel consumption in trucks and equipment, cutting your fuel costs, and at the same time pays you for carbon offsets created from participation in the program. CILA members will get the first opportunity to join the Co-op program, before it’s rolled out across the province. Call George Stedeford at (250)563-1144 for further details. Visit www.carbonoffsetcooperative.org for all the latest news and information about the co-op.
