NVCA release – posted September 29 2013
Members of the public are invited to attend an open house hosted by the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) to learn about updates that have been made the NVCA’s regulatory maps.

The open house will allow members of the public to view and provide comments on the updated mapping, as well as to learn about the areas regulated by the NVCA, and to find out more about activities within those areas that require written approval from the NVCA.
