Five separate properties constitute the land trust, including the Dahl Forest, Smith Forest, Norah’s Island, Fred & Pearl Barry Wetland Reserve, and Barnum Creek Nature Reserve. Land trusts are instrumental in the conservation of native flora and fauna, and are often focused on the protection of a specific type of habitat (Brewer, 2003). The HHLT is unique in that all four types of wetlands (marsh, bog, fen, and swamp) are found on the properties (Haliburton Highlands Land Trust – 2020 Climate Change Project, 2021). Natural wetlands are crucial as they act as sinks for carbon sequestration (Mitsch, 2013), and play an active role in the cycling of important nutrients like nitrogen (Fennessy, Rokosch & Mack, 2008). Wetlands also provide habitats for a variety of animals including mammals like beavers and minks, rare bird species, and a range of amphibians (Gibbs, 2000). Knowing this, the HHLT has made great strides in the conservation of many animals that call their property home. From bats to turtles, the Haliburton Highlands Land Trust has orchestrated many projects focused on the monitoring and protection of Ontario’s native species.",,"Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"conservation,environmental monitoring,frog,Haliburton Highlands Land Trust,monitoring",http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/440ce57d5ffe11a1ef9b18647923079a.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

including cycling nutrients, pollinating plants, acting as a food source for other taxa, and many
more. However, regarding non-environmental applications, insects play important roles in
forensic entomology. Although well-studied in urban regions, there is a lack of biodiversity
information on blowfly species in rural habitats. Therefore, this study aimed to determine
blowfly species composition in Haliburton, Ontario. Four bottle traps were set up across three
different types of forests in Glebe Park between July 1st to September 2nd, 2022. In the family
Calliphoridae, we report 11 species: Lucilia illustris, Phormia regina, Calliphora livida, Lucilia
silvarum, Lucilia coeruleiviridis, Calliphora vicina, Lucilia sericata, Calliphora vomitoria,
Cynomya cadaverina, Calliphora terraenovae, and Protophormia terraenovae. We examined if
several environmental variables affected species abundance and composition. We found
accumulated degree days above 0°C, numeric date, total precipitation (14 days), and humidity
affect species abundance. However, none of the variables examined (forest type, elevation, and
distance from the water) seemed to affect species composition. Our results align with previous
research in which accumulated degree days affected Calliphoridae abundance. The results of this
study can help answer questions in forensic entomology, such as calculating post-mortem
intervals, stages of decomposition, and determining if a body has been moved from its original
location.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/82b17021cba43351fa7b8985faa8bc5d.pdf,Text,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

Therefore, the ability of CTW's to remove aquaculture related pathogens will be speculated upon given differences and similarities between previously investigated microorganisms and trout related pathogens. Common human fecal bacteria are investigated, as well as trout related pathogens common to Ontario. Pathogens are removed from waste streams by CTW's, which employ six removal mechanisms: filtration, predation, unfavourable water chemistry, natural die-off, sedimentation, and temperature effect.
Conclusions regarding a CTW to retain the five trout related pathogens common to Ontario is that they should be effectively removed or inactivated from the wastewater. However, the determination of this purifications is speculative and based on the assumptions that a similar microbial community would be present in the CTW servicing the HFH that exists in the CTWs servicing human domestic applications. Paramount, though, is the validation of this hypothesis with quantitative investigations.

The only way for a wetland to be fully protected from development is it being designated as provincially significant under the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System (OWES), created by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF). This study conducted a preliminary assessment of the wetland on the northwestern edge of Grace Lake to determine if there is merit for its designation as provincially significant following a formal environmental impact assessment.
Flora and fauna observational data, organic content data, water chemistry, and water flow data were collected. All data was then inputted into the OWES scoring manual for Northern Ontario, and a score for the Grace Lake Wetland (GLW) was calculated. Our preliminary results found that the wetland could be deemed provincially significant, as it scored 247.52 points in the “Special Features” component, and a wetland can score a minimum of 200 points in this component to be considered a provincially significant wetland (PSW).
Our findings suggest that there is likely justification for a formal assessment of the GLW, and there may be more findings by a professional team than we were able to gather in this preliminary assessment. There are various opportunities for the expansion of our findings in future research, including conducting the assessment over multiple seasons and engaging members of the Grace Lake community to partake in various citizen science initiatives. If a
formal assessment designates the GLW as provincially significant, then it and any area within 120 meters of it will be protected from unsustainable development.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,2024,2023,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/3fe6a082020b4bc6cb5d32f2dc218001.pdf,http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/65cc2c32460315c857f085859e768ada.pdf",,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

All survey responses were translated into numeric data and the data were analyzed using SPSS software. The frequency counts and percentages were calculated and arranged from the most adequate or important health care needs to the least adequate or 3 important. In addition, Chi-Square analyses were used to determine the gender and age differences in health care needs.

The mandate of the Commission on Planning and Development Reform in Ontario is providing an opportunity for these interests to be incorporated into land use-affecting provincial legislation. This discussion paper presents the Commission’s preliminary proposals regarding cottage country issues and some initial responses to these proposals by environmentalists and the Haliburton County Planner. It is concluded that the Commission is taking some bold steps towards incorporating the principle of ‘sustainability’ into the planning process, but that only more comprehensive changes, and even long-term value change, is likely to make the concept viable in the Haliburton bioregions. There are three sections of this report which are included for the sake of providing background information. Readers familiar with the state of the present planning process in Ontario, its problems and omissions, may want to pass over the sections entitled ‘The Legal Framework’, ‘The problem’, and ‘Principles of Sustainable Land-Use Planning’. This paper is a contribution towards the ‘bioregional’ literature of the Haliburton Highlands in that it seeks to present an understanding of how an ‘outside’ body of law that actually affects these natural and human communities can be improved to more closely meet the needs of the local bioregion; economic and environmental.
