Question:
Under the proposed changes to the NWPA, would a work such as a dam, boom or weir at Garvin's be a minor work: you'd have to ask the official making the assessment: forget about any public consulation either.

22nd Kipawa River Rally
22nd Annual Kipawa River Rally
June 21 - 22, 2008 in Laniel Quebec
The Rally will definitely be the week of June 21, 22, 2008
Whether you’ve been before, or you’re coming for the first time, mark this date on your calendar and plan to be there.
Come and find out why people say this is the best white water run in eastern Canada!
Spread the word...it starts one week from today!
We can expect GREAT Water Levels: between 120 – 150 cms on the new gauge...ideal flow for the Rally.
The Kipawa is a PADDLER’S RIVER. It has been paddled by recreational boaters since 1968. It has been home to the annual Kipawa River Rally for 22 years. It is a diamond in the rough, a very cool natural space that we need to protect.
At a time when the Federal Government is proposing to change the Navigable Waters Protection Act, come out, have fun, and show your support.
Rally T-shirts this year will have a new message: "I Speak for Canadian Rivers"
