It is an environmental management plan for fisher- - ies and wildlife that will set out what resource base is required to meet. demands on the resource during the next. 20 years, said Dr. ~ John O’Reardon, head of the min- istry of environment's ‘plan- ning division, on Tuesday.

The floodihg af- fected spawning | grounds used. by kokanee salmon. and rainbow trout, and winter feeding grounds at low eve- vations used by deer.
