Orientation to the Shoreline Guidance Document for Provincial Government Staff

THIS WEBINAR IS INVITE-ONLY. Please contact KLP Program Coordinator Kristin Assen at klp.coordinator@gmail.com with any questions.

For Provincial Government Staff who review applications related to lakeshore development in the Kootenay Region, the Shoreline Guidance Document is a resource to consider cumulative impacts on fish and wildlife habitats in decision-making. The Kootenay Lake Partnership will provide an interactive introduction to using Shoreline Guidance Documents, with Kootenay Lake as an example to help support the preservation of important ecological, archaeological and Ktunaxa Nation cultural values. The Kootenay Lake Partnership developed the Shoreline Guidance Document to help government staff, residents and developers navigate existing complex local, provincial and federal regulations.
