The achievements of the Eastern Rockies Forest Conservation Board are considered relative to its stated objectives, the Board's concept of multiple-use and the present condition of watersheds on the Eastern Slopes . Priorities and pre- requisites for effective implementation of those directives are then examined.viii, 149 leaves : ill., maps ; 30 cm.engUniversity of Calgary graduate students retain copyright ownership and moral rights for their thesis.
