  • Adams River As a Heritage River.Pdf
    Draft Nomination Document for the Adams River As a Canadian Heritage River Prepared for B.C. Ministry of Environment By Cal-Eco Consultants Ltd. March 31, 2006 Version 1.2 1 The Canadian Heritage Rivers System The Canadian Heritage Rivers System (CHRS) is Canada's national river conservation system, aimed at promoting, protecting and enhancing Canada's river heritage. The system has been established by the Federal, Provincial and Territorial governments for the purpose of recognizing outstanding rivers of Canada, and ensuring future management which will protect these rivers and enhance their significant heritage values for the long term benefit and enjoyment of Canadians. The CHRS operates under a charter that describes rivers as "0 priceless olld irreplaceoblepart of our 1I0lio1101 heriloge olld idmti!j'. In British Columbia, the Fraser, Kickinghorse and Cowichan Rivers have been designated as Heritage Rivers under the CHRS. To qualify for inclusion in the CHRS, a river (or section of river) must be of outstanding significance in one or more areas: natural heritage, human heritage, or recreational values. The process of nominating a Canadian Heritage River requires an assessment of a river's natural, cultural and recreational values against criteria set out by the CHRS. While the CHRS is administered by the Canadian Heritage Rivers Board, a fundamental ptinciple of the system is that it depends on voluntary participation, parmership, cooperation and community involvement. The CHRS has no legislative authority, and as such, Local, Provincial
