Download: mahr-2017-2.pdf
On December 6, 2017, the Kootenay Conservation Program (KCP) and Columbia Wetlands Stewardship Partners (CWSP) co-hosted the Columbia Valley Conservation Action Planning Forum in Invermere, B.C. During this full-day workshop, 36 participants representing diverse perspectives as scientists, resource managers, conservationists, rod and gun clubs, keepers of indigenous knowledge, and ranchers worked together to identify priority actions that would contribute to maintaining healthy fish and wildlife populations and ecological functions in the Columbia Valley over the next five years. The Columbia Valley Forum resulted in eight Priority Action Plans (not ranked): 1. Conserve and Restore Montane Valley-Bottom Processes and Habitats that Benefit a Suite of Species of Interest and Conservation Concern 2. Document Species Diversity, Relative Abundance and Location of Bats 3. Identify and Protect Existing High Quality Habitats 4. Conserve and Restore Riparian and Wetland Habitats 5. Protect, Monitor and Mitigate Decreases in Hydrologic Inflows into the Columbia River and Wetlands 6. Identify and Enhance Connectivity and Corridors 7. Develop a Statutory Recreational Access Plan for the Columbia Valley 8. Take Aggressive Local Action to Reduce Emissions for Climate Change The priority actions were collectively generated and incorporated policies, objectives and activities that align with participants’ programmatic interests.
