Natural Areas Advisory Committee

On early March, a Natural Areas Advisory Committee was appointed for Prince Edward Island by the Hon. Gilbert R. Clements, Minister of Tourism, Parks and Conservation. An effort was made to involve local agencies who have a primary concern in the future of nature reserves in this province.

Kathy Martin, representing the Natural History Society, chairs the committee. The other members are: Rick Swain, Parks Canada; Daryl Guignion, University of Prince Edward Island; Wayne MacKinnon, the Heritage Foundation; and Russell Irvine, Department of Tourism,

Parks and Conservation. Diane Griffin serves as recording secretary for the group.
