Protected Status Decision Timeline

The final round of public consultations on the future of the Peel watershed ended Feb. 25, 2013. More than 7,500 people asked Yukon government to implement the Peel Planning Commission's Final Recommended Plan. This plan would permanently protect 55% of the watershed, and protect 25% until future plan reviews. After consultations with affected First Nations, Yukon government is expected to decide the future of the watershed some time in 2013.
