Stewardship Council Location Coordinate system: 4269 - "NAD83" Abstract: The Ontario Stewardship Program has established Stewardship Councils (SC) across Ontario. While most councils have established administrative boundaries that generally conform to upper tier municipalities, there are some SCs in northern Ontario which are generally located in and around a certain geographic location but do not have established administrative boundaries. This data set is a point coverage that can be used to identify the locations associated with these northern councils.
