Work continued on six other plans: Bear River-Wapiti, Sturgeon Lake- Puskwaskau East, Ghost River, Keg River, Coal Branch, and Livingstone- Porcupine Hills. The Lac La Biche- McClelland Lake Multiple Use Corridor Study also continued. A number of new integrated plan- ning activities were initiated. Four regional resource plans were begun for the Peace River, Northeast, Central and Southern regions. In conjunction with A Policy for Resource Management of the Eastern Slopes, Revised 1984, these plans will complete regional-level integrated resource planning for the province. A new sub-regional plan was initiated for the Cold Lake area, and the approved Poll Haven and Canmore Corridor plans were reopened for revisions.

Public involvement is an important component of integrated resource plans. The public involvement program provides the opportunity for public input and comment on plans throughout the planning process. In addition to information, on-going contact with the public and the involvement of the Alberta Integrated Planning Advisory Committee, major public involvement programs were held for six integrated resource plans. Strategies to inform and to involve the public in a meaningful way are devel- oped and followed for each planning effort.

Work was begun on prepa
