I want to thank each and everyone of you who sent me information. It was
invaluable.
I will keep everyone updated as my report moves through the system. Here's
hoping
there will be a "permit system" in place for the 2010 birding season.
I have just sent an email to Jim Phillips, P.Eng, Town of Brighton for a
meeting.
My report requesting a permit system for the Brighton Constructed Wetland is
complete.
The report is very detailed and builds to the final request. I am very pleased
with the work I have done.
Anyone who might be interested in any of the list (birds, flowers, dragonflies
butterflies or mammals) just send an email to me at [email protected].
Most sincerely
Maureen Campeau (Lee)
The wetland is located exactly 7.2 from exit 509 onto Highway 30 south off
