  • Cochrane District Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources
    Kesagami River Outwash Plain Conservation Reserve (C1607) Statement of Conservation Interest January 2004 Cochrane District Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources KESAGAMI RIVER OUTWASH PLAIN CONSERVATION RESERVE STATEMENT OF CONSERVATION INTEREST APPROVAL STATEMENT I am pleased to approve this Statement of Conservation Interest (SCI) for the Kesagami River Outwash Plain Conservation Reserve. As part of the Ontario’s Living Legacy planning initiative to establish additional parks and protected areas representative of the ecological diversity within Ontario’s natural regions, the Kesagami River Outwash Plain Conservation Reserve was selected for its distinctive representation of a glacial outwash landform featuring upland and wetland sites, significant water bodies and areas of conifer and mixed forest. The reserve is located in an unorganized area approximately 85 kilometres northeast of Cochrane. Direction for establishing, planning and managing conservation reserves is provided by regulation under the Public Lands Act and through the Ontario’s Living Legacy Land Use Strategy. Specific direction for the management of this conservation reserve is provided through this SCI, which defines the area to which the plan applies, describes the purpose for which the conservation reserve has been proposed and outlines the management intent for the protected area. As the minimum level of management direction required, this basic SCI will provide guidance for the management of the Kesagami River Outwash Plain Conservation Reserve and the basis for the ongoing monitoring of activities. Additional planning direction is not anticipated but should significant development be considered or complex issues arise, which require additional information, more defined management direction or special protection measures, a more detailed Resource Management Plan (RMP) will be prepared for the conservation reserve with full public consultation.
