Its been a busy Spring and Summer season for us so far, now with the whole field crew onboard we’re out in full force! During the month of June and early August we complete our initial surveying of Aucoin brook, using a combination of aerial photography and good old fashioned ground work we compiled over 80 sites of interest, most of which will require our attention in some way. For the remainder of this month we will be collecting data on Farm brook as well as continuing our river profiling work on the Cheticamp River that we began last year. The Cheticamp River profiling is a joint effort with our Parks Canada partners which provides us with crucial information that we use to design remedial projects on the Cheticamp River and its tributaries.
Over the course of the summer you may see our crew collecting garbage and carrying out clean up operations around the Gypsum Mine lake and trail, as well as removing blockages and beaver dams in the area. Feel free to say hello, and remember, its every visitors responsibility to pack out what they pack in! we encourage anyone who enjoys our beautiful natural resources to ensure that they stay pristine for future visitors.
We’re looking forward to seeing you out on the rivers! stay tuned to our social media for future updates and info on our work!
