 On local issues, Fraser sought changes to the E&N Railway Company's pest management plan which was being reviewed by the Ministry of Environment.Specifically, he sought the removal of 2,4-D and Garlon 4 based on concerns regarding potential interaction with the local watershed.The management plan was approved by the ministry but the company agreed to replace 2,4-D. Fraser supported residents who sought to add land to MacMillan Provincial Park (Cathedral Grove), oppose developing a new parking lot there and stop logging of old growth forest adjacent to Cathedral Grove.
