The provincial government releasing it's much-anticipated long-term wetland management strategy after numerous consultations with land owners and businesses last year.
Environment Minister Margaret-Ann Blaney tells CHSJ News a new sub-committee will map the province which will include members of the public, landowners, and businesses.
She says other goals of the plan will be to lessen the amount of red tape and reduce any conflicts municipalities may have between development and wetland protection.
The previous wetland plan was met with an outrage by landowners and developers as it designated 18 percent of the province as wetlands.
They felt it was too restrictive and hampered future development.
