Description

The directive provides a framework for the use of Crown Land Reservations to serve as a tool for public land management. The purpose of this policy is to establish how government is required to administer and responsibly use Crown land reservations under the Public Lands Act. The Land Use Reservation Program is a systematic approach to land management that makes use of reservations to identify and manage multiple intents and objectives for a parcel of public land. The system enables multiple regulators to manage public land for intended outcomes. This policy directive re-affirms and updates the use of reservations and the supporting program as a key land management tool for managing multiple interests that often times compete for access to, and use of Alberta's finite public land base.
