Abstract: The Provincial Parks Act provides for designation of lands to be managed under the Act that are not established as parks/protected areas. These lands are "declared" under the Provincial Parks (Section 7 Declaration) Regulation, and are legally described in Schedules to the Regulation. Specific provisions of the Act and regulations may be applied to each land parcel declared under section 7 to provide for management of the lands. Section 7 is used to address interim management of lands that have been acquired for park/protected area purposes but are not yet designated, or where activities not permitted in a park/protected area are being managed until such time as the activity is completed and the lands can be designated as a park/protected area. The applicable Ministerial Order is referenced in the "NOTES" field.

Abstract:
The Provincial Parks Act provides for designation of lands to be managed under the Act that are not
established as parks/protected areas. These lands are "declared" under the Provincial Parks (Section 7
Declaration) Regulation, and are legally described in Schedules to the Regulation. Specific provisions of
the Act and regulations may be applied to each land parcel declared under section 7 to provide for
management of the lands. Section 7 is used to address interim management of lands that have been acquired
for park/protected area purposes but are not yet designated, or where activities not permitted in a
park/protected area are being managed until such time as the activity is completed and the lands can be
designated as a park/protected area. The applicable Ministerial Order is referenced in the "NOTES" field.
