APPENDIX 3: ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Summary The proposal is likely to affect the number, location, type and characteristics of sponsored initiatives which would be subject to project-level environmental assessments, as required by the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act and Parks Canada's management directive on environmental assessment. The overall contribution of the plan to the ecological and commemorative integrity of heritage places is not expected to cause any unacceptable environmental impacts assuming the recommended mitigation measures are put in place. From these, implementation of the Minister's Action Plan to restore and maintain ecological integrity and budget arrangements to better fund the Heritage Resource Protection Program during the planning period reflects Parks Canada's priorities of ecological and commemorative integrity. Given the strategic nature of the plan, it will be necessary to tailor the priorities in the plan related to the environmental, social and economic characteristics of each field unit and on legal obligations pertaining to the preservation of ecological integrity. These policies could be provided for the preparation of the marketing, business and management plans of the field units. Return to the Table of Contents
