"The Ministry of Environment is proposing a WMA be created on a portion of land known as the Gilpin - Morrissey. The primary rationale for considering the WMA is three-fold and concerns the presence of year-round sheep habitat, the presence of essential winter mule deer habitat, and the presence of species at risk and ecological communities at risk."          (from MOE handout)
