Fish Protection Act and Ground Water Protection
The fish protection act is designed to protect the “riparian fish habitat”, while facilitating residential development. The regulation requires the local government to protect the “riparian” areas during residential, commercial and industrial development. This is done by making sure land developers are required to hire qualified environmental professionals to assess habitat and the potential impacts. Avoiding harmful alterations to disrupt or cause destruction to the fish habitat is a large priority and is authorized by the Fisheries and Oceans Canada. This only applies to areas that are east of Vancouver Island, lower mainland and the southern interior. This includes capital, central Okanogan, Shipway, Comox, Cowichan Valley, Fraser Valley, Greater Vancouver, Nanaimo, Okanogan, Sunshine Coast and Powell River. Your realtor has a responsibility to provide their clients with information needed to make informed decisions about the type of property and the potential processes that a developer may be subject to. It’s a good idea for your realtor to impute a clause to protect this aspect of the deal.
