The aim of this First Phase of the Remedial Action Plan (RAP) is to develop a management framework for the long term assessment and monitoring of the Porcupine River Watershed. This framework would also detail a program of remediation and restoration through the implementation of specific programs and projects directed at impaired beneficial uses. Impaired beneficial uses are referred to as ecosystem services whose integrity is jeopardized due to changes in the chemical, physical, or biological ecological constituents, which are identified and discussed further in Chapter 3.

INTRODUCTION
The aim of the Second Phase of the Remedial Action Plan (RAP) was to begin the implementation of the Porcupine River Watershed Restoration Action Plan adopted in 2014 (The Porcupine River Watershed Remedial Action Plan Stage 1 Report). During this Second Phase a not-for profit, for public benefit organization named the Friends of the Porcupine River Watershed was formed and incorporated to take over as a non-formal “stewardship committee” with the goal of spearheading the Remedial Action Plan, to continue to work with all stakeholders of the First Phase, including provincial ministries, local government, local industry, the larger public and concerned non-governmental organizations.

On August 9, 2018, the Canadian Environmental Law Association (CELA) and our local group jointly sponsored a community information meeting at the Senator Hotel. The topic was the Environmental Bill of Rights and how it can be used. Several members of the Porcupine Lake Information spoke up. We publicly asked Mayor Black and City representatives to reconsider our request for a Porcupine Liaison Committee.
