Atlantic Coastal Plain Flora Lakes Here are the subset from the Tusket/Carleton System of the High Priority
Lakes listed in the Atlantic Coastal Plain Flora Recovery Strategy. The
number in brackets is the number of high priority species (red and yellow)
on those lakes.
Wilsons (8) Gillifillan (6) Bennett's (6) Lac De L'Ecole (6) Kegeshook (6) Pearl (5) Salmon (4) Third (4) Fanning (3) > Agard (3) Parr (3) Travis (3) Ellenwood (2) Sloans (2) Canoe (1) Kempt Snare (1) Louis (1) Pleasant (1) Contact with Environment Canada Our best hope it seems is at the municipal council level (land use bylaws) & federal level (Environment Canada - DFO specifically - under the Fisheries Act), at least until we can get federal legislation regulating nutrient input into waterways (http://dsp-psd.pwgsc.gc.ca/Collection/En21-205-2001E-2.pdf). I have been writing to Ottawa about nutrient pollution legislation (NDP, Liberal, PC). You are correct that there is no federal legislation that deals specifically
with farms or even nutrient as a potential pollutant. In case where
there is no specific legislation and a waterway is involved, our primary
regulatory tool is the general provisions of the Fisheries Act, which aims
to protect the Canadian fishery. Based on your e-mail, we will be
taking a closer look at Carleton Watershed, including the Water Quality
Survey you referred to in your initial e-mail, in order to better determine
the potential sources of pollution subject to the Fisheries Act.
