The influences of water quality on the value of waterfront properties.
",,"This research project aimed to investigate the influences of water quality on the value of waterfront properties. To do so many different aspects and their associated variables were examined in an attempt to find a correlation between these factors and waterfront values. This project reduced the area being investigated into three watersheds containing different levels of water quality as described by The Muskoka Watershed Report Card 2010. For each of the 3 watersheds lakes were picked that represented varying levels of water quality data. The six lakes this study examined were: Mainhood Lake, Three Mile Lake, Lake Joseph, Ada Lake, Little Long Lake, and Skeleton Lake. To see if there is a correlation between waterfront property values with water quality, a multifaceted approach was incorporated. The specific areas investigated were: water clarity, drinking water quality, fishing preferences, and what factors drive property values.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"CBR,clarity,fishing,Muskoka,property value,Trent University,water quality",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/57ad3da54478360649496d8012033f61.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0 "Fisheries Management Plan for Head Lake, Haliburton Ontario","Vann, Jason",,"Whillans, TomCanada’s abundance of freshwater systems allows for the abundance of fish, one of Canada’s most essential natural resources and greatest exports. In fact, fish are one of the most heavily monitored resources in Canada to ensure that population numbers are not decimated. To properly manage its water bodies and fish populations, Ontario is divided into twenty fishery management zones of different sizes according to the number of water bodies and the human population density – Muskoka is in zone 15. This beauty and abundance of water systems has made it a popular destination for tourism and recreational fishing - one of the larger industries in the area and a significant source of income. Placing an exact dollar value on the economic impacts of recreational fishing in an area is an incredibly difficult task. There are numerous factors that must be considered when trying to come up with an approximate figure as the fishing industry encompasses much more than the cost of a rod and reel. This report will attempt to place an approximate figure off the economic significance of recreational fishing in Muskoka. To do so, the economic factors and values of recreational fishing, the benefits of healthy waterways, native aquatic biodiversity and healthy habitats for the key fish species in the area will all be examined.
