Re: Catfish Creek Conservation Authority’s Conservation Areas Strategy Consultation Period

Ontario Regulation 686/21: Mandatory Programs and Services, under the Conservation Authorities Act was enacted on October 7, 2021. Section 9 of the regulation requires an authority to prepare a Conservation Areas Strategy. The Strategy must be completed on or before December 31, 2024. The regulation also requires, that “the authority shall ensure stakeholders and the public are consulted during the preparation of the strategy in a manner that the authority considers advisable.” The draft Conservation Areas Strategy will be posted on our website and social medias for public consultation, our partners, municipal partners and local Indigenous Communities will be made aware of the consultation period, which will be conducted, from August 16, 2024 – September 27, 2024.

The Conservation Areas Strategy identifies broad objectives for the CCCA’s Conservation Areas and related programs and services. The strategy meets the requirements as outlined in the Conservation Authorities Act and Ontario Regulation 686/21 and is intended to provide guidance for the management and operation of the CCCA’s Conservation Areas. Inquiries regarding the Strategy can be directed to Dusty Underhill, General Manager/ Secretary – Treasurer at [email protected].
