The purpose of the Bufferlands Master Plan is to establish a
long-term, cost-effective management direction for the
Bufferlands that will maintain the existing buffer zone, provide
for future expansion and changes in operation of the EchoWater
Resource Recovery Facility and protect and enhance the
area’s environmental resources. The master plan will provide
guidelines and policies for alternative land uses, for visitor
use and access, and for vegetation and wildlife management.
