Vegetation Plan - Ontario Parks

The objective of management prescriptions in vegetation management unit D is to promote the continued use of
campgrounds and day use facilities for park users, while at the same time minimizing the impacts on the
surrounding communities. The targets of this vegetation management unit are to:
• Maintain campground and day use facilities and implement vegetation management prescriptions on a
case-by-case basis as required;
• Restore natural areas between campsites using native plants derived from park or local seed sources;
• Allow for the expansion of campground facilities (i.e., group camping) (OMNR 2000).
Vegetation management prescriptions within this unit are generally covered by the General Management
Prescriptions outlined in section 4.1.
4.2.5 Vegetation Management Unit E: Exclusion Zone
Vegetation management unit E is represented by the Ontario Power Generation’s exclusion zone in the northwest
corner of the park (Figure 4). It includes the entire Nature Reserve Zone and the portion of the Natural
Environment Zone between the Nature Reserve Zone and the shoreline.
This vegetation management unit is maintained by Ontario Power Generation (OPG), and no use of the area will
be made without written permission of the Atomic Energy Control Board (OMNR 2000). If access or
management of this area is required, it will be done in full consultation with and with permission of, the above
agencies.
