Kootenay Lake Partnership invites public to attend Kootenay Lake Shoreline Guidance Document open houses

The Kootenay Lake Partnership is hosting a series of public open houses in August. The open houses will be an opportunity for the public to learn about the Kootenay Lake Shoreline Guidance Document, which is the result of a comprehensive Sensitive Habitat Inventory Mapping Project that involved an inventory and assessment of ecological, archaeological and Ktunaxa cultural values along the shoreline of Kootenay Lake.

The project began in 2012 as an initiative of the Kootenay Lake Partnership, a multi-agency partnership brought together to support collaborative management approaches for a productive and healthy Kootenay Lake ecosystem.

The Shoreline Guidance Document is intended to achieve key goals; such as helping assist in the recovery of fish habitat values lost to past development impacts, and the on-going protection archaeologically significant areas.  The Kootenay Lake Partnership believes that is it possible and desirable to manage our watersheds and their natural surroundings in a sustainable manner and that sustainable management is the shared responsibility of all stakeholders; including proponents, professionals, all levels of government and community members.

The open houses will take place from 6:30pm to 8:30pm, with a presentation beginning at 7:00pm.

    Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
    year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.”
    She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally
    off topic but I had to tell someone!
