2006 Edmonton State of Natural Areas Report

In 2006, the Office of Natural Areas completed a State of Natural Areas report for the City. The Office released the report to the public in November of 2006. The report offers a comprehensive analysis of existing natural areas within the municipal boundaries and a framework on which to build a network that will help to sustain significant ecological areas and species.

This report is published in three parts. Please note that the resolution of some of the graphics has been reduced in order to facilitate downloading.
