About the project
Niagara Region has developed a new Niagara Official Plan. As part of the development process, the Region undertook a natural environment work program to identify a natural environment system. This is made up of both a natural heritage system and water resource system.
Work is now underway to update the Environmental Impact Study Guidelines. The key objectives of the update will be to:
