Thank you. I think I got the gist of that.
A municipality is bound by the same regulation as we are as a province, and probably a few levels more.
As I mentioned before, when a municipality--or an individual, as far as that goes--wishes to develop in a waterway or build a bridge across a waterway, for example, they still have to apply under the Navigable Waters Protection Act to the extent that it applies. And we're talking about limiting that, certainly. They must apply for the federal Fisheries Act, and in Alberta they must apply under the Water Act as well as the Public Lands Act. Each one of those has regard for public safety and environmental protection.
Furthermore, as a transport agency, we in Alberta—and I can't speak for all provinces—provide the funding to municipalities for bridges and many other municipal works. When we provide that funding we require them to adhere to the same standards we use in our own construction. We do have standards regarding clearances as they relate to waterways. That's why, in part, a lot of this becomes somewhat redundant or unnecessary, because if we meet our flood clearance requirements nowadays, we are almost certainly accommodating the navigation that might occur on any given stream.
Does that give you enough?
