Stage Two:
Collect information and Analyse Issues
Information collection is a key phase of the Sahtu Land Use Planning
process. As of the summer of 2001 we had contacted over 100 agencies.
The data collected provides a basis for the Board, the planners,
and the stakeholders to develop a picture of the "state of
the region". This image will include the states of both the
communities' social and economic health, and the regional environment.
Only when we have a clear picture of how things are today, can we
start thinking about how the future might or should be. The categories
of information that we have collected are as follows:
- Climate
- Geology
/ Surficial Geology
- Hydrology
- Soils
- Vegetation
- Wildlife
- Significant
Cultural and Natural Sites
- Subsistence
or Traditional Land Use
- Commercial
Land Use
- Impacts
of Previous Development
- Social Indicators
- Management
Areas and Jurisdiction

and GIS pages.
