          Maintenance notes

          Not found in Canadiana Authorities, 1996-12-24. There is also a Land Use Planning Branch in the Ministry of Natural Resources (although as of September 2000 no authority record had been created for that branch), therefore the Ministry name has been added to this authority record.
