Fish Protection Act
Sensitive Streams
Sensitive
Stream designation will ensure that fish have enough water to survive.
Recovery plans, an essential tool of the Fish
Protection Act, may be required on Sensitive Streams that are
unable to rehabilitate naturally. Based on public consultation and scientific
information, streams across the province will be identified that warrant
special management attention because of risk to fish populations due to
inadequate water flows and other habitat concerns.
