Description: This data is the spatial boundaries for established protected areas and conservation areas in the NWT, which includes:National Parks and National Park ReservesProtected National Historic Site (Saoyú ʔehdacho National Historic Site of Canada)Migratory Bird Sanctuaries Thelon Wildlife SanctuaryAreas protected through Aboriginal land claim agreements (Kelly Lake, Ezodzìtì)*Pingo Canadian Landmark Natural Environment Park*Areas in land use plans that meet the protected areas definition (Wexèlaxodiale)(SeeTłįchǫ land use plan page 13. http://www.tlicho.ca/sites/default/files/105-LandUsePlan_FINAL%20VERSION%5B2%5D.pdf)Areas of larger (> 1000 ha) Territorial parks of the sub-group: Territorial Recreation Park, Territorial *features were provided by NWTCG based on metes and bounds descriptions Users Notes about the Data – Note1- Gwich'in Territorial Park has been updated by NWTCG based on metes and bounds descriptions. Thelon Game sanctuary has known inaccuracies. When better data is available from credible data sources they will be updated.Note 2 - Feature class does not include spatial boundaries in the NWT for: Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), Mackenzie Bison Sanctuary, and Nagwichoonjik Historic Site. These are not included because areas don’t meet the IUCN criteria for a protected area according to national and international guidelines and do not have sufficient surface or subsurface protection. MPA are entirely marine and therefore have no land management implications.Note 3 – The Status Network field divides protected areas from conservation areas. Note 4 – This feature class excludes ‘Conservation Zones’ embedded in approved Land Use Plans (LUP) please use:’PLC_SLUPB_APP_SahtuLandUsePlan’; ‘PLC_TG_APP_TlichoLandUsePlan’; ‘PLC_GLUPB_DRF_GwichinLandUsePlan_X’ in the Enterprise Spatial Data Platform for Conservationand Heritage Conservation Zones.Note 5 – The ‘PLC_NWTCG_ConservationAreas_X feature class is a NWTCG constructed layer for the Mining Recorders Office (MRO) in the Mineral Tenure Viewer, so conservation parcels have a different definition in terms of land protection from development versus ecological integrity.
