[LookOutSugarLake] Logging in Riparian Zone #2

[Xplornet handrc]

Good day,

As a follow up to last week's email regarding the logging being done  
at Sugar Lake by Kokanee Lodge, here are more pictures - the  
photographer also took measurements and attests that logging is being  
done at 10 - 15 metres at most, from the high water mark. Since land  
is being cleared for the installation of a sewage system, this  
presents a double concern.

Sugar Lake And Middle Shuswap Stewards (SLAMSS) are strongly opposed  
to any effluent entering the lake and river. This opposition was made  
very clear in all comments made to ILMB, NORD, and the Province. These  
photos seem to indicate that effluent produced by Lookout (the  
proposed development at Kokanee Lodge) will definitely enter the lake,  
and will do so rapidly, which is not an acceptable alternative to  
having the effluent enter the lake via a pipe. As a matter of fact we  
see very little difference except that this new method also involves  
the destruction of wooded areas in a riparian zone.


Huguette Allen.
