TREPA is in the process of looking at potential sites for additions to the Province’s protected lands stock. This is to help reach the 12 percent protected areas goal. The Province has identified “potential” additions and has asked for comment. Shown below is a map of the tri-county area about which we have particular concern. (You can see the full map and names of all sites at: https://www.gov.ns.ca/nse/12percent/maps.asp) If you click on lands list from map the full list of names will be downloaded as a doc file for you.
Action: If you have personal knowledge of any of these sites or have thoughts about which ones you would most like as protected areas, please make your thoughts known to Dan Earle at danearle@eastlink.ca by August 17th. You may also comment on sites or the subject in general in the space below. Dan is compiling an overall report that TREPA will submit to the province with our recommendations.
