Campsite Designation, Elzevir Peatlands Conservation
Reserve at Deerock Lake
Public Notice for Category B Project Evaluations
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) invites public comment on
a proposal to designate campsites along the shoreline of Deerock Lake within Elzevir
Peatlands Conservation Reserve.
The Conservation Reserve is 2336 hectares of Crown Land, located approximately 30 km
north of the Village of Tweed. The Conservation Reserve, designated as such in 2003, lies
within both Lennox and Addington and Hastings Counties. Shortly after designation, MNRF
prepared a Statement of Conservation Interest which indicated future management of
camping at the site was recommended.
The proposed designation of campsites would provide camping opportunities at Deerock
Lake, while reducing the environmental concerns regarding garbage and human waste.
The designation of campsites would also prohibit camping on sensitive islands that cannot
sustain unregulated camping. Camping will continue to be allowed on designated sites
along the shorelines and larger islands. Designating campsites would involve posting
numerical signs at each approved campsite to be identified on a map posted at the boat
launch and access point maintained by Quinte Conservation. MNRF is also considering the
future installation of privies at each designated site to provide enhanced sanitary human
waste disposal.
Campsite designation would occur during the winter and spring of 2016. While some
campsite locations would be closed, designation of remaining sites would mitigate these
impacts by ensuring camping opportunities exist on Deerock Lake at sustainable locations.
Comments must be received within the 30-day comment period, which expires on
March 4, 2016.
The designation of campsites and installation of privies are being evaluated as a Category
B project under the Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Parks and Conservation
Reserves. A Notice of Completion will be sent to those who submit comments or request
further notice when project evaluation is finished. MNRF may proceed to implement each
project without issuing a further general notice.
