RECENT NEWS
Grey Sauble Conservation Authority staff and directors were shocked by a letter that was sent out to all 36 conservation authorities (CA), addressed “To Whom it May Concern” and asking them to “wind-down” non-core programs and not to proceed with any increases to levies or fees.
“Non-core” programs that are at risk of elimination include water quality testing, environmental education programs (e.g. Day Camps), stewardship projects, and tree planting on non-CA land.
