Question Title

* 8. Did you know a marine protected area has multiple “zones”. Physically, they would be separated but functionally, they are connected due to the nature and fluidity of the ocean. “The Core Area”; Zone 1, would have a significantly vulnerable ecosystem or high cultural value and would be set for complete preservation or no-take. Zone 2; “The Natural Environment Zones”, would be a buffer zone to enhance protection of zone 1 and used for ecological research and monitoring.  “The Outer Area”; Zone 3, referred to as the conservation zone, would allow renewable resources (logging/ commercial fishing, etc.) and aquaculture industry to exist and would KEEP OUT oil and gas exploration and drilling! Zone 3 would also have high potential for non-consumptive recreational use and public education.

Now you know we're wondering, do you think the Gros Morne Region has potential areas for various level of protection?
