    A proposal to develop 5.53 hectares of Crown land for the production of forage crops near the community of Humber Village has gone through the environmental process. The development would be an extension of the Proponent’s existing apple orchard and forage farm. Work would include vegetation clearing, tilling, aeration, soil supplementation and seeding.  The undertaking was registered September 7th and the Environment Minister released the project on October 27th. On December 14th the Minister advised that a pre-clearing survey is acceptable.
