Amendment PV-2a adds the words “enhancing and restoring” to the amended clause. Those are stated purposes in many parallel processes and overlapping areas such as the provincial greenbelt, the existing Rouge Park, Rouge watershed, Oak Ridges Moraine, and the Great Lakes water quality improvement remedial action plans.
These words, “enhancing and restoring”, are really needed to honour the federal government's written commitment in this process to “meet or exceed” existing provincial policies.
The greenbelt plan gives provincial policy status to the Rouge Park plans, and the Rouge Park watershed plans are covered as well.
