Watershed Plans
Watershed Plans are used for the management of human activities and natural resources within a watershed. They are intended to inform and guide municipalities, provincial and federal governments, TRCA, nongovernment organizations, and private landowners as they update their policies and practices for environmental stewardship.
The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority approved the Etobicoke-Mimico Creeks Watersheds Technical Update Report at Authority Meeting #2/11, held on February 25, 2011.
