Request a detailed map and operational definition of the 'changes in access' to land and water referenced in the Proponent's submission.
Strategic Rationale
"The filing states that the Project will impact land use through 'changes in access.' While framed in the context of traditional use, any restriction on land or water access directly affects Melgund residents who rely on the surrounding Crown land for recreation and subsistence. The community requires a precise definition of which areas will be restricted, for how long, and how this loss of access will be mitigated, ensuring that the 'enduring relationship' with the land mentioned by the Proponent does not result in the exclusion of local residents."
