"Letters to the Editor’

Development,

‘ . To the Editor;

The integrated management
of our valuable natural

resources concerns us all, and’
‘there is an increasing. demand-

from an -environmentally-aware.

‘public for more ‘diligent and
scrupulous management of
‘them. :

As your MLA, 1am pleased to
report that our provincial
government | has -supported
economic. development policies
that reflect a ‘commitment to a
healthy, ‘sustainable environ-
ment. We must ensure that

economic development co-exists: :
in harmony | ‘with the environ-.

ment by ‘‘anticipating and
preventing’’. rather than ‘‘re-

acting and repairing’. To ensure

a sustainable environment, we
must anticipate future demands
on our resources, accurately

assess environmental impacts”

and develop responsible
strategies .and initiatives. This
message was emphasized by the
Minister. of the Environment,
the Honourable Bruce Strachan,
in a recent address to the-British

Columbia Forestry Association, -
and I strongly endorse the high

priority our government has
placed on this important issue.
Our government shares in the
responsibility of a sustainable
environment and has im-
plemented many integrated
management . mechanisms that
link the environment and the

economy. Most recently, a Task
_ Force on the Environment and
Economy was appointed,

chaired by U.B.C.. President
David Strangway, and including
members from government, in-
dustry, environmental - and
native groups.

The Task Force will make rec-
ommendations to government in
several vital areas which will in-
clude: ‘establishing a permanent

environment

forum of public and private sec-

tor decision-makers to advise'on’
the integration of environmental
‘management: and economic
development; developing a pro-

vincial conservation strategy
aimed at long.term environmen-
tal protection and effective

resource use; and promoting un-.

derstanding of the bond between

‘the environment and. economy
_ through. environmental educa-

tion.
‘Our government is committed

‘to faking a leading role in in-

tegrated resource management
and to do this we must do even

-more to protect and preserve our

environment. The most effective

way of achieving this objective is.

to address issues related to en-
vironmental and economic sus-

tainability before, not after
resource allocation decisions a are

made,
This will also mean that there

_ will be tough regulations and

severe penalties for non-
compliance, That kind of safety
net is needed to protect against
those who do not meet their
responsibilities as environmental
citizens,

It is the intention of our
government to ensure integrated

resource management in British _
Columbia receives top priority.

That means increased public
education, multi-sectoral par-
ticipation in planning en-
vironmentally sound economic
development, and rigorous en-

- forcement~ of environmental
law. In this way’ we can build

“anticipate and prevent”? into
integrated resource management
and help ensure our rich

‘resource base can support the

demands of today’ 8 and to-
morrow’s users,
