AbstractThere is strong contemporary interest in the application of traditional environmental knowledge (TEK) of physical environments and land-use patterns in northern Canada. This interest relates to land claims, land-use planning, cultural preservation, resource management, and environmental monitoring. The application of TEK to land and resource management is critically examined and a typology relating scale, user group, and the transformation of knowledge is developed. Of the many challenges facing the incorporation of TEK in resource-management initiatives, perhaps the greatest is the recognition of the appropriateness of scale. The conclusions reached in this paper reaffirm the notion that scale and context are key components in maintaining the validity and integrity of TEK. The primary role of TEK appears to be with providing the most valid and intelligible interpretations of local geographies and prescribing locally appropriate resource-management strategies.

Information needs of government for SEA, EIA, and other aspects of biodiversity conservation and sustainable development are studied and reported in this chapter. This includes needs related to biodiversity for land use planning, for operation of the EU Common Agricultural Policy, for agricultural policy more generally, and for Biodiversity Action Plans. Legislation and its implementation are considered at European Union and member state level by direct enquiries and a preliminary questionnaire survey in project partner countries. Preliminary conclusions are drawn and lessons learned for a Pan-European survey.

In the framework of land use planning 2016-2030, the general population growth and needs of social infrastructures in conjunction with the amount of land required for urban development had been estimated. Based on the overall estimation of the total population of Darkhan-Uul province in 2030, the statistical number will be 104426 inhabitants in total and there were estimated the population growth of administrative units population: Darkhan district 85230 inhabitants, Orkhon 3856 inhabitants, Sharyin gol district 9086 inhabitants, Hongor district 6579 inhabitants. In our research, had been used the needs assessment method, where estimated required area and main needs for secondary schools, kindergartens, hospitals and commercial services in accordance with the number of the projected population and district capacity.
