Cottonwood Creek CPR Land Riparian Project - $2,472
Nelson and District Rod and Gun Club
Nelson, BC

Two knowledgeable personnel (preferably Selkirk College IEP students or other experienced technicians) will be hired with the aid of an Integrated Planning Instructor or a Stewardship Advisor to develop a comprehensive ‘blueprint for this riparian zone .The riparian zone would be 12 meters (or 36 feet) wide on each side of the CWC box culvert located on CPR property. The length of the zone would extend from the NDR&GC weirs to the CPR tracks (approximately 110 meters). The plan would include the use of native evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, grasses and other materials found in a forest that would simulate a forest. Also improvements are needed in the riparian zone from Lakeside Drive Bridge to the box culvert.
