The Vermilion River Stewardship (VRS), is grateful for this opportunity to comment on the draft Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Ramsey Lake Watershed Study; however, the short deadline for comments has made it challenging to make a thorough review. VRS requests that a minimum comment period of 30 days be provided in all future requests for public feedback. This would allow for an adequate opportunity to review and prepare a comprehensive and meaningful submission.
