This project is still underway at the MFFP.<\/p>\n

The mission of the CGBRO is to conserve and enhance the fauna and flora on the territory of the wildlife refuge project. This includes ensuring the ecological integrity of the territory and seeing to the maintenance and development of activities compatible with this mandate, including recreational tourism, education, hunting, fishing and trapping.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”About” _builder_version=”4.13.0″ background_color=”#FCFAF7″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_center” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.12.0″ max_width=”1200px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.12.0″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_css_main_element=”margin-top: auto;||margin-bottom: auto;” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][dsm_blob_image blob_image=”https:\/\/cgbro.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/baie-lochaber.jpg” alt=”Baie Lochaber” title_text=”baie-lochaber” blob_shapes=”image_seven” image_height=”650px” image_height_tablet=”450px” image_height_phone=”200px” image_height_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.13.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|||-16vw|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0vw|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”|||0vw|false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||35px||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||35px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” border_radii_blob=”off||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_blob_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.12.0″ header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#002855″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”||-3px|||” header_2_font_size_tablet=”36px” header_2_font_size_phone=”28px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_letter_spacing_tablet=”0px” header_2_letter_spacing_phone=”0px” header_2_letter_spacing_last_edited=”off|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Its purpose is to preserve the integrity of a significant wildlife habitat, recognized at the regional or provincial level for its wildlife productivity, density and diversity, or the support it provides for a rare, threatened or vulnerable species.<\/p>\n

In a wildlife refuge, the government determines, by regulation, the conditions of use of the resources and, incidentally, the conditions for recreational activities.<\/p>\n

There are currently nine wildlife sanctuaries in Quebec, ranging in size from less than one hectare to 1,290 hectares (12.9 km2<\/sup>). With an area of 2,800 hectares (28 km2<\/sup>), the Grandes Baies de l’Outaouais Wildlife Refuge would be the largest in Quebec.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FCFAF7″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#002855″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”||-2px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”36px” header_2_font_size_phone=”28px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_letter_spacing_tablet=”0px” header_2_letter_spacing_phone=”0px” header_2_letter_spacing_last_edited=”off|tablet” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

It extends over a linear section of 29 kilometers between McLaurin Bay in the west and the Blanche River in Thurso to the east. It covers an area of 28 km2<\/sup>.
