Cowichan Bay Fishermen's Wharf Assn

A Harbour Authority is a non-profit, locally controlled organization whose board of directors have links with the community. It exists solely for the management and maintenance of the harbour facility. The term harbour, as it is used here, refers only to property and water lots, under the jurisdiction of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. The Small Craft Harbour facilities remain public. The Harbour Authority operates on a pre-approved annual budget negotiated with Small Craft Harbours and is responsible for the day-to-day operation and management of the harbour. The Harbour Authority generally meets at various intervals with Small Craft Harbours to discuss budget projections and make necessary modifications.
