Watershed-based planning in Saskatchewan began in earnest after 2006 under the auspices of the Saskatchewan Watershed Authority. Within a decade, a dozen watershed plans were produced following a planning framework that included technical and watershed resident committees. First Nation communities, or "reserves," exist within these watershed areas. This article probes the inclusion of First Nations in those plans. Using document analysis and keyword search, our analysis explores any spatial relationship that may exist between First Nation inclusion and the amount of reserve land in a watershed. The results of this research show that First Nation inclusion is limited in watershed planning in Saskatchewan. We see opportunity for more effective watershed planning through greater collaboration with First Nations.

围绕保护区进行规划：探索将第一民族纳入萨斯喀彻温省的流域规划框架

2006 年后，在萨斯喀彻温省分水岭管理局的主持下，萨斯喀彻温省的流域规划正式开始。在十年内，按照包括技术和流域居民委员会在内的规划框架，制定了十几个流域计划。原住民社区或“保护区”存在于这些流域地区。本文探讨了将原住民纳入这些计划的问题。使用文档分析和关键字搜索，我们的分析探讨了原住民包容与流域内保留地数量之间可能存在的任何空间关系。这项研究的结果表明，在萨斯喀彻温省的流域规划中，第一民族的包容性是有限的。我们看到了通过与原住民加强合作来进行更有效的流域规划的机会。
