Some big changes are planned for southern Alberta. No doubt this will spread throughout Alberta if these proposals go through.

I've seen this kind of thing before, other side of the border from this area, I always find it strange that it seems the gov has already gone through a number of consultations before it actually comes to light with the public it affects. Anyway issues around Mclean creek have been coming up for years, so this was bound to happen. Thing is special interests groups that have stakes in the area have been working on this for along time, and occasional users are usually the last to know what these special interest groups have been up too. All I can say is get your 2 cents in there or you might find the only thing your riding in the back country east of the border has got four legs.

Prevent the LOSS of recreational land usage in Southern Alberta
Prevent the LOSS of recreational land usage in Southern Alberta
This affects everyone in the province, today it is the closure of public land in the south, tomorrow... it's in your backyard!
Please sign the petition and protect all public lands from being closed by the outspoken few.

The online petition quite likely will NOT be enough....
Take the time to write a letter to your MLA's or MP's for your area and the affected Area's or go one higher and pick up the phone and actually voice your complaints.
Sadly even though we can get thousands of signatures online, its likely to be thrown out as if it were a hamburger wrapper.

Your right Tyler. Form letters or petitions are not going to work. Do what Tyler said contact your MLA and get active. Read what the plan says and respond to it in YOUR own words BUT be polite and respectfull or it also will hit the junk pile

what time and where in Calgary?
Mark Your Calendars!
Please join us for an evening of information, discussion, questions and answers about the proposed land use framework for the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan.
Presenters: Bev Yee, Assistant Deputy Minister, Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development
Dave Bartesko, Senior Consultation Manager, Land Use Secretariat.
Where: Capitol Hill Community Hall - 1531 21 Ave, Calgary, AB
When: 7:00 PM Thursday October 3
Background:
The Government of Alberta is actively working on a land use framework for the South Saskatchewan River Basin to support effective and sustainable use of the land by all users. Information on this process is available here:
RMDRA has actively engaged the Land Use Secretariat and provided feedback and advice regarding access for all OHVs and particularly ORM use and access. In cooperation with other Southern Alberta ORM and OHV groups including Lethbridge Motorcycle Club, Crowsnest Quad Squad, and Alberta Off Highway Vehicle Association (AOHVA) we met with the Land Use Secretariat and the Assistant Deputy Minister to advocate for sustainable OHV and ORM access within the region. During that meeting RMDRA was offered the opportunity to host a consultation to discuss the Draft Plan.
THE DRAFT PLAN:
Release of the Draft of the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan is expected September 18, with private and public consultations planned throughout the fall months. When released, a copy of the Draft document will be placed in this thread for downloading and discussion.
This is a great opportunity to have a direct audience with representatives of the Provincial Government and engage productively on achieving the access we need to grow Off Road Motorcycling. Please tell your friends and come out in force to strengthen our voice in the land use planning process!

Bumped to the 17th of October - Rocky Mountain Dirt Riders ? View topic - SSRP - RMDRA Consultation Night October 17, 2013
Sorry Burns beat me to it.

SCHEDULE UPDATE
This Consultation has been re-scheduled to October 17, 2013.
Unfortunately, the Draft Plan has been delayed at the cabinet stage. It is anticipated for release October 9, 2013. After discussion with the Land Use Secretariat, we agreed it will be far more valuable to discuss specific plan content and thus decided to delay our consultation meeting to October 17, 2013.
Please spread the word!
Thanks,
Robert J Henry
