Draft Strategic Policy for Bait Management in Ontario- Meeting in June

​As you are aware, the Draft Strategic Policy for Bait Management in Ontario is currently posted on the Environmental Registry (www.ebr.gov.on.ca) (#012-9791).  The comment period is open from February 27-June 27, 2017.  
As part of the consultation period we have scheduled a number of information sessions across the province to explain and clarify what is being proposed and answer any questions that stakeholders may have on the draft policy.  We will be having three types of sessions: 1) combined industry/stakeholder sessions; 2) Public open houses in the evenings; and 3) Indigenous sessions
 
The session dates and locations are as follows:
 
Stakeholder information sessions will be held in the following locations:
 
Location   Date   Time  Address

Sudbury   May 24  9am-12pm     Lexington Hotel,    50 Brady St., Sudbury

Timmins   May 25  2-5pm   Ramada Inn,   1800 Riverside Dr., Timmins

Kingston  May 29  2-5pm  Ramada Kingston Hotel  33 Benson St., Kingston

London  June 8  2-5pm  Best Western Plus Lamplighter Inn,  591 Wellington Rd, South, London

Kenora  June 15  9am-12pm  Clarion Lakeside Inn,   470 1st Avenue South, Kenora

 
 
In addition to the stakeholder information sessions, MNRF will also be providing public open houses, at the locations and times outlined below.  These open house sessions will be relatively informal with MNRF staff being available for one-on-one discussions to answer any questions that individuals may have.
 
Public open houses will be held in the following locations:
 
Location    Date  Time     Location

Sudbury  May 23  6:30-9:00pm    Lexington Hotel,      50 Brady St., Sudbury

Timmins  May 25  6:30-9:00pm    Ramada Inn,  1800 Riverside Dr., Timmins

Once again we encourage all stakeholders to review this posting and either submit comments through the Environmental Registry (www.ebr.gov.on.ca; #012-9791).
If you have any questions regarding the proposed policy or the provincial bait policy review process, please contact Scott Gibson (Senior Fisheries Biologist) at bait@ontario.ca or at 705-755-5395.
