	Ontario's Grand River, by Ian Martin
		The Grand River Conservation Authority's (GRCA) mandate for flood protection and low-flow augmentation protected river headwaters in the Luther Marsh wildlife area, and allowed collection of spring runoff by the Shand Dam near the town of Fergus.
		In 1994 the Grand was designated a Canadian Heritage River in recognition of its importance in both human and natural history, and in 2000 the GRCA and its partners in conservation received the Theiss International River Management prize honouring the revitalization of the Grand.
		Biologists and fly fishers alike soon realized the temperature data and subsequent studies of the abundant insect life were clear evidence that the river might support a trout fishery if the meagre natural population of trout was increased by stocking and improvement of spawning habitat.
