A guide designed to help improve the state of habitat compensation in the Fraser River Estuary by making sound, evidence-based recommendations guided by the findings of Lievesley and Stewart (2016), Assessing Habitat Compensation and Examining Limitation to Native Plant Establishment in the Lower Fraser River Estuary. The findings from this study indicate that only one-third of sampled marsh habitat compensation projects created between 1983 and 2010 are acceptably compensating for habitat losses; and that several riparian habitat compensation projects from this same time period had significant deficiencies. These findings indicate that there is still much room for improvement in the field of habitat compensation in the Fraser River Estuary.
