Supplemental Information:
The Lands, Ecosystems, and Conservation unit takes a landscape level perspective of conservation values and
biological diversity. As subject matter experts, they provide content in development of land management
policy, and contribute to regional, sub-regional, and trails management plans. They also identify areas with
high biodiversity value, and potential recreation opportunity. Contact for questions or concerns about
landscape or recreation plans, conservation, biodiversity, or management of wilderness parks or natural areas.

Statement:
The dataset has been created through consultation with the Lands, Ecosystems, and Conservation Unit of the
Recreation, Ecosystems, and Lands Program to align their districts to the provincial boundaries and
geoadministrative spatial fabric. The boundaries were comprised of municipal districts, protected areas,
ATS quarter sections, base access roads, and base hydro rivers.
