Book Description
"Algoma Headwaters is one of nine signature sites in Ontario established in 1999. Signature sites were identified for their range of natural and recreational values, and their potential to contribute to future recreation and tourism. This management plan guides the resource stewardship, operations, and development of the Algoma Headwaters Signature Site, and may be reviewed and revised to address changing issues or conditions, as necessary. This plan pertains to the entire Algoma Headwaters Signature Site, and incorporates management of the four protected areas it contains: Algoma Headwaters Provincial Park, Goulais River Provincial Park, Aubinadong -- Nushatogaini Rivers Provincial Park, and the Ranger North Conservation Reserve. This plan reflects the intent of the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) / Ontario Parks to protect heritage features and values, and to maintain and develop high quality opportunities for outdoor recreation and heritage appreciation for the residents of Ontario and visitors to the province. It frames the management of the four protected areas around their designation, goals, and objectives. In addition, it outlines a prioritized phase-in for the implementation of the direction contained in the plan, with the intent to provide a level of service to visitors in this protected area. A summary of the public consultation carried out during the planning process is also contained in this plan."--Document.
