Vermilion watershed project begins flowing

September 30, 2009 | Posted by AB NAWMP

Alberta NAWMP is sponsoring the development of a sub-watershed plan for the wetland-rich Vermilion River sub-basin.

Led by the North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance, the project seeks to demonstrate various needs including:

• The value of finer-scale watershed planning,
• The importance of enlisting local stakeholder support,
• The utility of a wetland inventory, and
• The creation of opportunities for stewardship or recognition of Environmental Services (or Environmental Goods & Services) benefits.

The committee has identified issues and is now ‘wading in’ to the more difficult task of linking issues to causes that will lead to balanced solutions.
