Description:
Wetlands in the Bonanza Biodiversity Corridor (BBC), along Bonanza Creek between Slocan and Summit lakes, are sensitive ecosystems with high biodiversity values. The target landscape for ecosystem enhancement is a portion of the 15-km-long BBC, comprising 12,865 hectares (ha) that link Slocan and Summit lakes within the upper Slocan Lake watershed. The project focuses on three wetland complexes within the BBC that have been highly impacted by the old CPR rail line constructed over 100 years ago.
