Manitoba Heritage Resources Impact Assessment Program

Résumé du livre

The Heritage Resources Act encourages & facilitates the preservation & protection of Manitoba's heritage resources & provides for heritage resource impact assessments (HRIAs) to do this. Heritage resources are works of nature or human endeavour that have cultural, natural, scientific, or aesthetic value. A HRIA outlines a project, describes the cultural & natural context of the development, identifies the impact of the project, & recommends ways to avoid or lessen its impact on heritage resources or human remains. This document summarizes activities. It provides a table by region & agency to illustrate the development projects that were referred for screening. A list of HRIAs follows with permit number, archaeologist, location & results for each. Some major projects are described in more detail.
