This appendix establishes the standards and specifications for approved Ministry of Forests recreation structures. These standards and specifications are documented as 17" x 22" mylar working drawings that are available for use at headquarters, regional and district offices. Included here for reference purposes are 8 1/2" x 11" reproductions of those drawings. |

Recreation structure standards serve as a basis for estimating program costs and budget needs. |
These standards constitute the "Ministry of Forests Standards" that are identified in MoF policy (II-REC-005, Chapter 3) and throughout this manual. Please consult that policy for information regarding interpretation and application of these standards. These are the standards that are built into the definition of minimum acceptable program or MAP (Chapter 4) and serve as a basis for estimating program costs and budget needs. |
|
|
Standards for recreation structures will evolve as program direction and needs evolve. |
These standards will be reviewed and revised on a regular basis. [ Top ] |
