Evaluating the management plan occurred in several phases. The strategic objectives outlined in the plan were examined so as to ensure that they complied with the mandate and policies of Parks Canada. Then, the plans and activities earmarked for development at Grosse Île and the Irish Memorial National Historic Site of Canada were investigated for sources of stress. These impacts were then described in terms of duration (temporary, permanent) and intensity (nil, weak, mitigable, non-mitigable, unknown). Finally, general measures designed to mitigate anticipated negative impacts were defined.
