Watershed Planning — Kemptville Creek Watershed
 
  Index  

 

   

The Kemptville Creek Watershed Plan was initiated in 1993 by the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority and its member municipalities. The planning process adopted a multi-stakeholder approach, involving people from all facets of the watershed community. The planning process encouraged and solicited the input from the watershed community.

The purpose of the plan was to:

  • outline goals, objectives and methods for the rehabilitation, protection, and enhancement of the natural features and functions and health of the Kemptville Creek watershed
  • devise and outline a watershed management strategy based on the “ecosystem approach” to resource management and land use planning
  • address a number of unresolved issues afflicting the watershed
