SUMMARY:ALR at a Crossroads - Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:The Agricultural Land Reserve at a Crossroads 40 years of Farml
 and Preservation in Southwestern British Columbia\nExhibition opening\nWed
 \, Oct 1\, 5 pm (immediately following talk in B101)\nAbby Gallery B136
 \nThe Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) has served as a defining feature of 
 British Columbia agriculture since it was instituted 40 years ago. Applica
 tions to exclude land earlier placed in the reserve occur frequently and g
 enerate concern both from farmers and the general public\; when approved\,
  they affect not only a specific piece of land but also the surrounding la
 ndscape. As the ALR was founded before geographic information systems tech
 nology was available\, changes over time to the land reserve have not been
  easily visualized or understood.\n\nDr. Lenore Newman and her research te
 am have produced a set of maps and accompanying photographs of the changin
 g boundaries of the ALR in the Lower Mainland that illustrates both the st
 rengths and vulnerabilities of the reserve in a way that they have not bee
 n displayed previously.\n\n&nbsp\;
