Being the beaver and infrastructure management representative for Mining ,Rail ,highway and private land i totally agree with section 4 since it stresses my concerns that have been shared with both MNRF and MTO after my partner was charged under the FWCA for trying protect the public from a flooded highway in the Parry sound district. When an "agent" representing private land owners and infrastructure comes upon a high risk water management issue when performing semi annual inspection they should be able to mitigate the problem immediately for the protection of the public and asset.
The existing procedures of contacting MNRF,the local trapper, DFO create a delay in mitigation creating greater risk and is quite often not value added.
If the agent is required to document the harvest and report it to the MNRF to adjust seasonal quotas for the particular crown land trapper that would be acceptable.
I am for actually proposing making crown land trappers accountable for the infrastructure on their traplines as part of their yearly quotas as a condition of accepting an 01 position.
Beaver harvest and the quotas game can no longer be driven by the price of a pelt and castors.
CO's should be allowed to enforce repetitive flooding issues with the head trapper /trappers councils when it is clear they are left along infrastructure during open season in order to be paid during closed season.
This is why most private land are engaging me to manage their sites.
Available for consultation anytime.
