Abstract

This report presents the findings of a study that utilizes a Delphi questionnaire technique to explore trans-border environmental governance issues in the Fraser Lowland of south-western British Columbia/ north-western Washington State. The international border that bisects this area, presents an implicit obstacle to coherent and consistent management of the environmental resources located in this unified bio-physical region. Moreover, as population and industrial pressures continue unabated, there is a sense that some degree of unified bi-national effort is inevitable in this cross-border region (CBR).
