An order issued late Friday afternoon by federal Fisheries Minister Bernadette Jordan related to the Highway 101 causeway in Windsor, N.S., is getting mixed reviews.

The order means Nova Scotia's Department of Agriculture must operate the tidal gates at the Avon River in a manner that improves fish passage.
 

It says the gates must be fully opened during outgoing tides and again during incoming tides to allow a minimum of 10 minutes of salt water from the Bay of Fundy to enter the lake upstream of the gates.

The two-week order was put in place March 20 and will expire April 3. An email from the minister's office said there is "intent to issue subsequent Orders until mid-June."
