Strategies and Policies 

 

Regional plans developed with Albertans and approved by Cabinet integrate provincial policies (see below) at the regional level.

 

Strategies and policies translate higher level directions from legislation, regulation and regional plans into more clearly defined expectations and results (such as the South Saskatchewan Region Air Quality Management Framework and the South Saskatchewan Region Surface Water Quality Management Framework).

 

Current editions of Government of Alberta's major strategies, policies and other guidance documents associated with land-use regional planning and natural resource management are available through Government of Alberta ministries.
