Public Consultation Open for Draft Watershed-based Resource Management Strategy and Draft Conservation Land Strategy

For Immediate Release
September 12, 2024

Tillsonburg, ON: The Long Point Region Conservation Authority (LPRCA) will be hosting a Public Information Session on Tuesday, October 1, 2024 from 6:30 PM to 8 PM. The public is invited to come and provide input and ask questions about both draft strategy plans.

In December 2020, changes in the Conservation Authorities Act resulted in the introduction of Mandatory Programs and Services which are to be delivered by all Conservation Authorities. Ontario Regulation 686/21 requires all Conservation Authorities to prepare a Conservation Area Strategy and a Watershed-based Resource Management Strategy by December 31, 2024.

To read the draft strategy plans, visit the governance tab on our website here, www.lprca.on.ca.

LPRCA has created an online survey for each draft strategy that members of the public can fill out to provide feedback.

Comments on the draft strategies must be submitted to the LPRCA through the online surveys by Monday, October 7th, 2024.
