Upgrading for Pinery Park
Strict preservation of the en-
vironment and a major
upgrading of existing facilities is
being recommended for the 5,-
100 -acre Pinery Provincial Park.
The recommendations are
made in a prelimary master plan
expected to get approval within a
week.
The report will be made public
'in about three weeks after con-
sultation with provincial parks
officials, and publication of an
eight to 10 -page booklet outliing
major recommendations.
The booklet will be sent to the
700 persons who requested the
information from the Pinery park
office.
The report is the result of four
years of research by a Chatham
district and London regional
committee of the ministry of
natural resources. A 1971 master
plan was scrapped due to public
pressure.
The new plan recommends, the
park retain the designation of
"natural environment" with an
emphasis on preserving its
fragile sand dune ecology.
In addition, it suggests
establishing a more intensive
"visitors service's' program to
educate people about park
resources. This would include
construction of a visitors services
centre to co-ordinate park ac-
tivities.

Wendy McNab, regional park
planner for the natural resources
ministry, said Thursday the
natural environment
classification is an indication
"the physical environment of the
park is considered significant
and less intensive use is called for
here.
It is such that it may not be able
to sustain heavy use. You try to
emphasize the uniqueness of the
park."
Since it was established in 1957
the park has been heavily used,
particularly by young people who
find the more than five miles of
beaches and 1,000 camp sites
ideal for weekends.
In 1975, there were 211,935
campers in the park and 438,104
day -use passes were issued.
Comparative figures to mid-
August this year are 121,351 and
285,853.
• The fact that the park is
already well-established with
facilities and subject to heavy use
was the reason behind main-
taining the natural environment
designation, which attempts to
strike a balance between
wilderness parks and recreation -
type parks.
Ms.McNab said that if the
facilities hadn't already existed,
it is possible the committee would
have reached a different con-
.clusion. The Pinery is one of the
few parks in Southwestern
Ontario that is not recreation -in
tensive.
