Committed to the conservation, enhancement and stewardship of habitat across Newfoundland and Labrador

There are three Conservation Areas within Springdale's municipal boundaries, which together support a diversity of avian species and encompass a total area of approximately 1950.4 acres. Indian Brook Arm Estuary (248.2 acres) provides an important stopover, feeding site, and intermediary for an increasing number of Canada geese. Lower Burnt Berry Bog (743.1 acres) is a relatively undisturbed raised bog and surface fen, that provides important nesting habitat for Canada geese and black ducks. Upper Burnt Berry Bog (959.1 acres) is a predominately raised bog with some surface fen, located on the northwest side of Burnt Berry Brook. It plays an important role in the landscape by acting like a sponge and holding water from spring runoff and heavy precipitation, thereby preventing excessive flooding, while also providing a source of water during dry spells for Burnt Berry Brook and Indian Brook.
