Credit Valley Conservation Integrated Watershed Restoration Strategy
Reflecting a systems approach, the Integrated Watershed Restoration Strategy (IWRS) aims through its development and implementation, to adopt an integrated approach to addressing threatened or deteriorated ecosystem features and functions. The IWRS sets out landscape scale priorities for conservation actions; however,decision-making must always factor both site-level and opportunistic considerations (e.g. landowner willingness, specific threats, cost efficiencies, etc).
