Trout Lake Foreshore Integrated Management Planning 2022

This dataset contains the open access data and reports for the FIMP survey carried out in Trout Lake in 2022. As residential and recreational pressures on Trout Lake intensify, questions have been raised about what measures need to be taken to balance the social, cultural, ecological, and economic values of any given area. In response to these concerns, Foreshore Integrated Management Planning (FIMP) was completed on Trout Lake in the summer of 2022 to inventory and describe current shoreline attributes and modifications, identify sensitive habitats and provide guidance to land managers, homeowners, developers and stakeholders on how to protect sensitive habitats when land use changes are proposed.
