What's New in New Brunswick?

Development in Mactaquac Provincial Park: Development of an aerial obstacle course within Mactaquac Provincial Park has been temporarily halted, but only after many trees had already been cut. CPAWS NB is asking the government to reconsider this project. For more details and pictures, click here.

Online Interview: Recently our executive director, Roberta Clowater, was interviewed for an online podcast called Doing Stuff Outdoors. In the interview she discusses The Big Wild, the CPAWS initiative. To hear the podcast, download episode 49 at http://doingstuffoutdoors.com/

Forest Management Survey Released: Well, it is what we already knew. A new survey released by the government of New Brunswick shows that citizens are very concerned about the environment of New Brunswick's forests, and want more consideration given to the environment when considering the future use of this natural resource. To see the survey and all of its interesting results, go to http://www.gnb.ca/0079/survey-e.asp .

Proposed Sisson Brook Mine Information Sessions: The Sisson Brook Project is a proposed tungsten/Molybdenum open-pit mine to be located in the Stanley/Napadogan region northwest of Fredericton. The proponent, Geodex Minerals, held open houses prior to submitting the project for EIA consideration. The project is expected to be filed with the government soon, at which point the public can provide comment.

Fundy Trail Parkway: Papers for Phase II of the development of the Fundy Trail Parkway have been filed with the Department of the Environment for an Environmental Impact Assessment.

Some things should last forever.
