By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: MB : 1986. Ducks Unlimited Canada,Description: 1 v. (various pagings) : maps ; 28 cmOnline resources: Abstract: Projects developed under this program are intended to secure waterfowl habitat on smaller marshes or pothole complexes. These areas are the most productive for waterfowl and yet are most vulnerable to drainage and degradation. The tools used do not include water control. Therefore,less information is required, especially engineering. Staff input is reduced and uncomplicated. Total project costs are < $10,000 while the cost benefit factors are excellent. In 1985 Brandon Office submitted a number of project proposals to Provincial office that would fall under this program. The objective of this report is to recommend changes in Company policies to accomodate development of a greater number of small marsh projects quickly and efficiently.
