The Chilliwack River Watershed Strategy
was initiated in 2004 with the
goal of improving decision making in the
Chilliwack River Watershed by building a common
understanding of watershed issues, values and solutions
based on sound science and local knowledge.
These maps
provide agencies and the
public with a broad array of information on the features
and values found within the Chilliwack River Watershed
and are intended to contribute to informed
decision making on the management of the many resources
found within the watershed.
Interactive Maps
The Chilliwack
River Watershed Atlas on the Community Mapping
Network website is a high resolution, interactive,
web-based mapping tool that incorporates a variety of
the natural heritage and community values found within
the Chilliwack River Watershed. The Atlas was developed
in cooperation with many partners, including all levels
of government, local First Nations and communities, and
a coalition of local stewardship organizations.
