The Watershed Study and Management Plan is being conducted jointly by the City of North Bay, North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority (NBMCA) and the Municipality of East Ferris to update and establish policies and provisions that will help to protect and preserve Trout Lake, Four Mile Lake and inflowing streams.
