About Eel Ground
The town
Eel Ground is the home of Natoaganeg First Nation, a Mi'gmaq community on the Miramichi River; the province lists it under both names. Its main reserve, Eel Ground 2, covers about 1,073 hectares some 5 km west of the former town of Newcastle, now part of the City of Miramichi, and the Nation also holds Big Hole Tract 8 and Renous 12 upriver. Statistics Canada counted 545 people on Eel Ground 2 in 2021, up 2.4% from 2016. Under the Indian Act, reserve land can't be sold or its title conveyed unless it is first surrendered to the Crown, so listings near Eel Ground are on the land around it. The nearest full hospital is Horizon Health's Miramichi Regional Hospital in Miramichi, with a 24-hour emergency department.
Around it
Since the 2023 local governance reform, the land beside the reserve belongs to the City of Miramichi on the east and the Rural Community of Miramichi River Valley, based in Blackville, on the west and south. The Greater Miramichi Service Commission issues building and development permits in both, and for the rural community it points to the provincial building, setback and subdivision regulations. Route 8 passes about 1 km east of the reserve. Work within 30 m of a watercourse or wetland needs a provincial alteration permit. Greater Moncton and Fredericton airports have scheduled flights to Montreal and Toronto.
