Babine Watershed Monitoring Framework
The Monitoring Framework consists of two relatively unchanging sections that describe the approach, and four appendices that may change over time to reflect current knowledge. The body of the text includes a discussion of the Theoretical Background to the risk based approach and a set of Procedures that determine monitoring priorities for each objective and strategy included in the land use plans. Appendix 1, the Land use Plan Summary, summarizes the current commitments (goals, objectives and strategies) in the land use plans and FRPA that require monitoring. Appendix 2, the Knowledge Base, provides current scientific information about the relationships between planned management strategies and the objectives and goals listed in the land use plans. The Knowledge Base forms the core of the Monitoring Framework, including all of the relevant available information needed to assess the priority for monitoring for each objective and management strategy. It is designed to be updated as knowledge improves. Appendix 3 contains the current Tables of Monitoring Priority that result from following the procedures in the Monitoring Framework. Appendix 4 contains a template for an Annual Monitoring Plan.
