Decision Date: December 18 ,1991

Panel: Linda Michaluk, Hugh Hodgkinson, Harry Hunter

The Appellant had applied for permission to remove accumulated material from a stream bed to allow the free flow of water for the prevention of further flooding of his property. The Board, due to the potential for impact on the fish of the creek, the ineffectiveness of the Appellant’s earlier instream work and the existence of other options, dismissed the appeal.
