THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2016. Camping season continues at Falls Reserve Area After several years of assessing options, the Maitland Conservation Board of Directors has decided to continue operating the campgrounds at Falls Reserve Conservation Area. Since 2011, Maitland Conservation has been reviewing camping operations at the park to determine if the service is sustainable from both a financial and environmental perspective. This assessment has included the development of an environmental impact study, consultation with park users, a review of the park master plan, market research and a financial analysis of operations. Stewart Lockie, Conservation Areas Coordinator, reports that the assessment process identified changes that could be made at Falls Reserve to support the continued financial viability of camping services while ensuring that operations set a high environmental standard. Some of the proposed changes are already underway. "Washroom facilities have been fitted with low -flow toilets causing a dramatic drop in water consumption and large areas have been planted with trees and wildflowers to reduce grass cutting," said Lockie. Currently the park is generating a surplus and if revenues can be maintained the surplus will be used to upgrade infrastructure and equipment at the park. Future projects include upgrades to the septic system at two washrooms to eliminate the potential for groundwater contamination and roadway repairs. Environmental concerns will be addressed by closing one of the group campsites and planting additional trees and shrubs along the Maitland River corridor. Falls Reserve operates on a cost - recovery basis. Maitland Conservation levy funds are not allocated to park operations. The 230 -acre Conservation Area is located just west of Benmiller and features serviced and unserviced sites, walking trails and a stocked fishing pond. This year the camping season runs until Oct. 16, before it wraps up for another year.
