About
Mascot of the Streamkeepers
The Morrison Creek Streamkeepers are an active group of watershed residents and community members dedicated to preserving, rehabilitating and promoting public awareness of the Morrison Creek watershed. They have worked over the past 4 years gathering biophysical data on the watershed and conducting restoration projects with the guidance of both Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and BC Ministry of Environment and Lands and Parks (MoELP) which is now called Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection(MWLAP). As well, the Morrison Creek Streamkeepers teamed up with the Comox Valley Project Watershed Society to complete a streamside landowner contact program in 2000.
More recently, the Morrison Creek Streamkeepers have begun to work with the Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk (an Environment Canada program) to complete works aimed at ensuring the longterm health of the Morrison Creek Lamprey. As much as possible, MCS volunteers are also actively involved in land-use planning at all levels of government.
