Followup Regard ing Manitoba's Conservation Districts

Ian Wishart asked that I follow up with you to answer a few questions that remained after his recent

presentation in PEI. W e are currently working on an updated flow chart for the managem ent of the

ALUS pilot project, and I'll forward this to you as soon as it's completed. In the meantime, the

ALUS pilot project manager - who is also an employee of the local Conservation District - forwarded

some additional resources to answer questions about the conservation district structure:

1. http://www.gov.mb.ca/waterstewardship/agencies/cd/index.htm l - Dept. of Water Stewardship –

provides a basic description of CDs and what they’re all about

2. http://www.mcda.ca/ - Manitoba Conservation Districts Association – info on the organization

and links to those CDs that have websites

3. W ayne Hildebrand – Manager of the Conservation District Secretariat: 204-476-7033,

W ayne.Hildebrand@gov.mb.ca

I hope this helps, and I'll be in touch soon.

Best regards,
