Resumen

This Regulation provides the rules applicable to the compensation regime for adverse effects on wetlands and bodies of water provided for in Division V.1 of Chapter IV of the Environment Quality Act (chapter Q-2), herein called the “Act”. It determines in particular the activities that are exempt from the requirement to compensate, the calculation method of the amount of the financial contribution payable as compensation and the cases in which the financial contribution may be replaced by work carried out to restore or create wetlands and bodies of water. Where a cranberry or blueberry farm ceases to operate, the wetlands or bodies of water affected must be returned to the state they were in before the operation began or to a state approaching it, according to the conditions provided for that purpose in the authorization.
