Description

Miquelon Lake Provincial Park is a high use park in the Edmonton region and most of the campground and office infrastructure was very old and run down. As a result, Miquelon is undergoing a major capital upgrade with the addition of a new park centre. Most of the work within the strict Facility Zone has already been done or is underway, with little disturbance to natural vegetation. However, there are other areas of the park planned to be disturbed where native vegetation (including bryophytes and lichens) may include species listed on ANHIC Tracking Lists. This focused bryophyte and lichen survey was conducted to determine if such rare species do exist within the proposed footprints so that disturbance can be avoided or at least the impact mitigated.
