The Humber Arm Environmental Association was formed as a non-profit organization established to address citizen concerns about the effects of municipal sewage on Atlantic salmon frequenting the Humber River. In 1991 this organization was incorporated and took on the responsibility of administering the ACAP program in the Humber Arm area.
We see the communities around the Humber Arm as vibrant, economically sustainable centres. They surpass health standards in air and water quality and are ecologically diverse with aquatic organisms and terrestrial wildlife. All occupations and industries are designed with minimal environmental impact in mind and all development decisions respect and uphold the integrity of the communities' natural surroundings.
