What is meant by environmental monitoring and audit?
Part VI of the MVRMA provides for the development of a program to monitor the cumulative impacts of land and water use in the Mackenzie Valley. It calls for an independent audit of environmental quality and environmental regulation to be undertaken at least every five years. The most recent one was completed in 2006. By providing information on the state of the environment -and feedback to the boards on the overall environmental health – the audit will contribute to effective planning and decision-making in the Mackenzie Valley.
