Summary of Environmental Assessment Process

Project Description:

The proponent proposes to develop a golf course at Lumsden North on the northeast coast of Newfoundland. The proposed 83.1 hectare golf course would be located directly north and east of the Town of Lumsden. The proposed development will consist of 18 holes, an irrigation system with automated pumping, an internal drainage system for trees and greens, cart paths, combined maintenance and golf cart storage building (280 square metres), as well as a 220 square metre clubhouse.
