Protecting The Natural Environment Sample Clauses

Protecting The Natural Environment. As stated above, one of the purposes of the Pingo Canadian Landmark is “to protect the special natural characteristics of the Landmark, including the pingos and the natural ecosystem of which they are a part.” As there is no Landmark policy in the Parks Canada Agency, we drew upon the Canada National Parks Act for direction in dealing with ecological integrity of the site. The Canada National Parks Act states that “maintenance or restoration of ecological integrity, through the protection of natural resources and natural processes, shall be the first priority of the Minister when considering all aspects of the management of parks” (Canada National Parks Act, Section 8(2)). For the Pingo Canadian Landmark, this implies managing the Landmark ecosystem in such a way that ecological processes and components are protected for future generations. Achievement of this goal will be challenging due to the proximity of the community of Tuktoyaktuk to the Landmark; however, through the active participation and co-operation of individuals, community groups, government and non-governmental agencies this goal can be attained. Management Action Parks Canada and its partners will explore options for slowing the erosion of Ibyuk Pingo. Both traditional and scientific knowledge will be drawn upon. Management Action Parks Canada and its partners will use the Inuvialuit Land Administration’s Conduct of Operations clause on pingos to help protect the pingos within the Landmark. This clause states that “no vehicle shall have access to any Pingo, including a zone of 100 metres (328 ft.) surrounding such Pingo” (Inuvialuit Land Administration Manual of Rules and Regulations, 19(8)).
