Ottawa RiverKeeper to install awareness signs in the MRC Pontiac for endangered species

During the most recent meeting of the mayors of the MRC Pontiac on October 21, it was resolved by Council to allow the Ottawa Riverkeeper to install awareness signs at one or more of the boat launch locations maintained by the MRC Pontiac Waterway, under the supervision of Kim Lesage to select the appropriate location(s). These signs include information about the Hickorynut, a freshwater mussel species, and the Lake Sturgeon, which are both species at risk in the Ottawa River.
