Stewardship is "the careful and responsible management of something entrusted in one's care".
Carmenville signed a Municipal Wetlands Stewardship Agreement in 2007. The agreement represents a formal public committment by the community and the province to act together to conserve wetlands for waterfowl. It empowers a community to set aside important wetlands for long-term conservation within designated areas for the benefit of present and future generations. Wetlands are conserved within 4 Management Units within Carmenville's municipal boundaries.
The conservation of wetlands depends not wholly on conservation plans or regulations but on the stewardship ethic of residents and visitors like yourself!
Why Conserve Wetlands?
1. Wetlands are among the most productive habitats in the world.
2. Wetlands hold water and help to prevent flooding.
3. Wetlands filter and purify water.
4. Wetlands provide a natural outdoor classroom.
5. Wetlands contain 35% of all rare, threatened and endangered species.
6. Wetlands can be used for recreational purposes (e.g. boating, fishing, hunting, and birdwatching).
