Habitat conservation strategy and plan for the Northwest Territories, 1993-2003.: CW66-655/1993E-PDF

"This document sets out a strategy and plan which will guide Canadian Wildlife Service (CWS) efforts in protecting migratory bird habitats in the Northwest Territories (NWT) over the next 10 years. It is intended as a planning tool for CWS Staff and an information document, for other agencies and government departments with an interest in northern habitat issues. The plan addresses current priorities for protection within a 10 year planning horizon and sets target dates for various initiatives. Experience has shown that many factors affecting the establishment of new wildlife conservation areas in the NWT are beyond the control of CWS. Progress is sometimes slow; the rate of advancement for one conservation area proposal is often different than for another; and the final outcome of proposals are generally unpredictable. These factors make it difficult to set out, with any, degree of certainty, a specific time frame for establishing conservation areas. Therefore, target dates in this document should be treated as guidelines rather than definitive project endpoints"--Introduction, page 2.
