This exemption is subject to the following terms and conditions: 1. Where any activity which otherwise would be exempt under this order is being carried out as, or is part of, an undertaking for which an environmental assessment has been accepted and approval to proceed received, the activity shall be carried out in accordance with any terms and conditions in the approval to proceed as well as the conditions of this order. 2. Where any activity which is the subject of this order is being carried out as, or is part of, another undertaking which is the subject of an exemption order under the Act, the activity exempt under this order shall be carried out in accordance with any terms and conditions in the other exemption order as well as the conditions in this order. 3. The MNR shall notify, individually, each landowner whose property would abut or would be surrounded by a provincial park or conservation reserve. Such notification shall occur prior to designation of the area, either by regulation of the area under the Provincial Parks Act or designation of the conservation reserve under the Public Lands Act. 4. The Ministry of Natural Resources shall develop policies and guidelines for the planning and management of conservation reserves within six months of the date of this exemption order. The undertaking of management of conservation reserves will require a separate approval under the Environmental Assessment Act. 5. Until the undertaking of management of conservation reserves receives approval under the Environmental Assessment Act, conservation reserves may be managed on an interim basis as Crown land to maintain the integrity of natural resources. 6. Immediately upon designation of a conservation reserve, MNR will prohibit commercial timber management activities, mining, hydroelectric development and other industrial uses within the reserve. 7. MNR shall provide opportunity for involvement of interested and affected parties in the development of guidelines and policies for the planning and management of conservation reserves. 8. Where an emergency situation exists by reason of danger to the health or safety of any person or the injury, damage or impairment or immediate risk of injury, damage or impairment to property, plant or animal life or the environment, the MNR District Manager may determine, where possible in consultation with the MOEE District Officer, and carry out a course of action to address the situation. The MNR District Manager shall, after the emergency situation has been dealt with, notify the Director of the EA Branch, MOEE and the appropriate MOEE Regional Director of the actions carried out, why the actions were necessary, any required future actions and how MNR intends to comply with the requirements of the Act for those future actions. 9.
