Assessment Report Professional Opinion …………………………………..32 Page 3 of 32 FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report Section 1. Description of Fisheries Resources Values and a Description of the Development proposal Proposed Development Activities and Timeline The proposed development will combine the 6 existing properties, previously used for a combination of farming, residential and light industrial purposes, into a new 16 lot subdivision to be used entirely for light industrial purposes. An extension of Progress Way, between Lickman and Aitken Roads, will divide the development approximately in half. Progress Way will cross McDermott Ditch over a clearspan arched culvert. The 16 new lots will include 7 to the north of Progress Way and 9 to the south. Activities associated with the proposed development will include vegetation clearing; soil preloading; site grading; road and building construction; and landscaping. Vegetation clearing and soil preloading has already begun on the site. During 2008, construction of Progress Way will be completed and construction on individual lots will begin. Fish and Fish Habitat A total of five ditches were determined to have Riparian Assessment Area’s (RAA’s) that overlap with the project area including McDermott Ditch, which originates at the north edge of the project area and flows south down the centre of the property, and four smaller tributary ditches to McDermott Ditch, located around the perimeter of the project area. These four previously unnamed tributary ditches are the: 1. West Railway Ditch - the west portions of the unnamed ditch which runs along the north side of the CN rail line and drain east into McDermott Ditch; 2. East Railway Ditch - the east portions of the unnamed ditch which runs along the north side of the CN rail line and drain west into McDermott Ditch; 3. Chilliwack Mountain Road Ditch - the unnamed ditch on the north side of Chilliwack Mountain Road which intersects with, and drains into, the upstream limit of McDermott Ditch; and 4. Entrance Ditch - located adjacent to Lickman Road which drains north into the west end of the Chilliwack Mountain Road Ditch. As McDermott Ditch flows into Atchelitz Creek, which is a fish bearing tributary of Chilliwack Creek, all five of these watercourses are defined as streams under RAR and require a SPEA determination. The two railway ditches are true ditches under RAR because they were constructed to drain property and have no significant headwaters or springs. All five subject ditches had similar channel and riparian habitat characteristics. Their channels were all characterized by straight banks, small bankfull widths (1.6 to 4.4 m), low gradients (<1%), a lack of large woody debris, and substrates composed of fines and detritus. Each channel was contained within a narrow corridor of riparian shrub and tree vegetation (averaging ≤14 m in total width) that was dominated by Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor) followed by red alder (Alnus rubra). Although most of the project area’s riparian forest was at the pole sampling stage of maturity, one large (27 m tall) black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera ssp. trichocarpa) occurred adjacent to McDermott Ditch. The Atchelitz Creek watershed, of which McDermott Ditch is a component, is known to support Page 4 of 32 FORM 1 Riparian Areas Regulation - Qualified Environmental Professional - Assessment Report several fish species including common carp (Cyprinus carpio), chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta), coho salmon (O. kisutch), cutthroat trout (O. clarki), lamprey (Lampetra spp.), prickly sculpin (Cottus asper), rainbow trout (O. mykiss), Salish sucker (Catostomus sp.) and threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus)1. A fish sampling survey2 conducted in the subject portion of McDermott Ditch and its four tributaries, during winter of 2007, determined that these five watercourses provide overwintering habitat to several non-salmonid fish species: predominantly (>90%) threespine stickleback but also northern pike minnow (Ptychocheilus oregonensis), redsided shiner (Richardsonius balteatus) and Salish sucker. Salish sucker were only caught in McDermott Ditch. The subject section of McDermott Ditch is unlikely to provide direct fish habitat during summer when its dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations can drop to levels below those that normally support fish populations (<1 mg/L) 3,4. The marginal value of this stream section as summer fish habitat is further demonstrated by the lack of fish caught during minnow trap sampling during August 2004 (when DO concentration was 4.1 mg/L)4 and the observation of dead sticklebacks in 2006 (when DO concentration was 0.9 mg/L)3. For more information regarding the fish bearing status of the subject watercourses please refer to the attached fish sampling memo2. An additional manmade ditch, located on the north side of 8180 Aitken Road, has been previously assessed (see attached report5) and determined to not constitute fish habitat due to its lack of fish presence, poor water quality and lack of a direct connection to fish habitat. Based on this assessment, Fisheries and Oceans Canada provided its opinion that infilling this Aitken Road ditch would not result in loss of fish habitat (see attached e-mail6). A proposal to replace this ditch with a dry biofiltration swale is being worked out between Trackside Holdings Ltd. and the adjacent land owner. As this ditch is not fish habitat, and will soon be infilled, it is not further addressed in this report. 1FISS. 2008. Fisheries Information Summary System. BC Ministry of the Environment.

    Volume 5D, ESA – Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC Socio-Economic Technical Reports Trans Mountain Expansion Project Traditional Land and Resource Use Technical Report Gathering Places Aseniwuche Winewak Nation community members did not identify any gathering places during the TLU for the Project. No mitigation was requested for gathering places by Aseniwuche Winewak Nation. Sacred Sites Aseniwuche Winewak Nation community members did not identify specific sacred sites during the TLU for the Project. Community members explained that the Hinton area is culturally important and presently used by Aseniwuche Winewak Nation community members, whereas the Valemount area is also culturally important, but not currently used. Community members did not expect to find sacred sites during ground reconnaissance due to extensive industrial development in Hinton and surrounding areas (Aseniwuche Environmental Corporation 2013). Aseniwuche Winewak Nation requested notification if culturally relevant sites are found during Project construction and that the sites are protected by a 100 m buffer. 5.2 Hargreaves to Darfield Segment The results of TLU studies conducted to date have identified TLU sites potentially affected by the Hargreaves to Darfield segment and associated Project components requiring mitigation. 5.2.1 Lheidli T’enneh Lheidli T’enneh elected to conduct a third-party TLU study for the Project. A third-party consultant, Chignecto Consulting Group conducted a map review, community interviews and ground reconnaissance that focused on Crown lands within the asserted traditional territory of Lheidli T’enneh. The findings of the TLU study have not been reviewed or approved by Lheidli T’enneh Chief and Council or community. The interim report is considered draft and any changes resulting from review with the Lheidli T’enneh community will be incorporated into the final report.

  • Intro & Reminiscences
    The digitization of this wonderful historical book "In the Shadow of Mt. Cheam" was a volunteer endeavor to pay tribute to those dedicated people, the Heritage Preservers of Rosedale and District, who compiled and published this book in 1988. (You can find their names and photos on page 4.) Today, copies are difficult to find. Most are held as treasured family possessions. The intension of the Heritage Preservers, as written in the Dedication page, was "to remind us of this past and to keep alive the spirit that guided these great people.» The digital book will continue this intension. The digital world did not exist when this book was published. By making this book available digitally, the valuable content will be available to an increased readership and will educate people about the rich history of the area. The digital book is in a searchable PDF that can be read and searched on most modern digital devices. I wish to dedicate the digitization of this book to Mr. Robin Lister who first introduced me to the Camp River, Rosedale and Popkum areas and let me read his copy of this book. Michael Yusko Popkum 2020 DEDICATION The research and study necessary to compile this book has brought to the Heritage Preservers of Rosedale and District a renewed appreciation and awareness of the rich heritage now enjoyed by all who have called this area home. With admiration and respect, and without the slightest hesitation, In the Shadow of Mt. Cheam is dedicated to our Pioneers. To those men and women who left the security and comforts of home in many lands, we owe our admiration.
