In 1956, the new Chairman of the Forests Commission, A V Galbraith, introduced a major restructure of the organisation to create 56 Forest Districts.
The process included amalgamating the plantations and hardwood divisions, which had been separate and rival entities up to that time.
Things remained largely unchanged for the next three decades until the early 1980s.Myrtleford Forest District office signforest signs, forests commission victoria (fcv)
