  • Appendix C: List of Other Park Systems
    APPENDIX C LIST OF OTHER PARK SYSTEMS WITHIN THE PRRD The PRRD is well served with parks of various kinds and levels within its boundaries. Although there are no national parks within the PRRD, there is an abundance of provincial parks, protected areas and ecological reserves. The PRRD encompasses a portion of one of the largest Forest Districts in the province, the Fort St John Forest District which itself has an area of approximately 4.6 million hectares. The large size is as a result of the amount of crown land in the district area. The result of all of this open space area is that when compared to other regional districts across the province the PRRD comes out well especially when regional population densities are considered. As compared to other Regional districts such as: Regional District of East Kootenay The Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) has 28 provincial parks, 2 conservancy protected areas, 1 national park, 6 wildlife management areas, 93 recreation sites, 66 recreation trails and 3 Ducks Unlimited properties within their land area of 27, 560 sq km and a population density of 2.0 based on a total population of 56,685. Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) has 28 provincial parks, 1 wilderness conservancy park, 1 ecological reserve, 2 wildlife management areas, 49 recreation sites and 64 trails. The RDCK has a land area of 22,130.72 sq km and a 2011 population of 58,441 for a population density of 2.6 persons per sq km.

  • Cataloguing in Situ Protection of Genetic Resources for Major Commercial Forest Trees in British Columbia
    Cataloguing in situ protection of genetic resources for major commercial forest trees in British Columbia a,* a b A. Hamann , S. N. Aitken , A. D. Yanchuk Extended manuscript, cite as: Conference Proceedings, Dynamics and Conservation of Genetic Diversity in Forest nd th Ecosystems, Strassbourg, December 2 to 5 , 2002. Forest Ecology and Management (special issue) 197: 295-305. _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract Loss of genetic diversity can be due to a variety of causes and might take place unnoticed even in widespread and frequent species. In situ reserves can be a very efficient method of protecting genetic diversity in tree species if they are sufficiently large to sustain adequate populations and spatially well distributed to protect populations adapted to a range of environmental conditions. We use a geographical information system (GIS) based approach to assess the level of in situ protection using forest inventory data. Recently revised maps of seed planning units used for management of genetic resources for 11 major commercial conifer species reflect geographic variation as observed in genetic tests. On this basis we investigate how well populations are represented in protected areas. Due to a systematic expansion of protected areas in the 1990s, it appears that conifer genetic resources are now well represented in protected areas. In this study we identify the remaining gaps for in situ protection and discuss implications for genetic resource management. Further, we evaluate protected areas for their importance with respect to gene conservation, and determine whether ground truthing is necessary to confirm that populations in protected areas are sufficiently large. Keywords: gene conservation, conifers, gap analysis, GIS, British Columbia _________________________________________________________________________________ ab1.

  • Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements
    Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Schedule of Indian Reserves and Settlements Preface 1. This schedule contains lists of Indian Reserves and Settlements in Canada by Provinces and lists of Indian Bands by Regions taken from information filed with the Indian Land Registry as of June 1, 1972. 2. Indian Settlements are shown in the "Reserve" columns of Parts 1 and 2. These are not Indian Reserves within the meaning of the Indian Act and occupation of settlements is not restricted to a particular Band. 3. Part 1 of the schedule lists Indian Reserves and Settlements alphabetically by Provinces. Settlements follow after the alphabetical list of Reserves for each Province. This section also states the names of the Indian Bands for whose use and benefit the Reserves have been set apart, the approximate geographical location and the approximate acreage of each Reserve. 4. Map designations are given in the location description. The N.T.S. abbreviation means the "National Topographical Systems" of maps covering the Reserves and adjacent land. Maps can be obtained by writing to the Map Distribution Office, Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Ottawa, Ontario. When ordering maps the complete N.T.S. designations must be quoted. To assist in locating Reserve location, approximate degrees and minutes latitude and longitude have been given. 5. Acreage includes all lands in which the Band has a recorded interest. Acreages are shown as APPROXIMATE because in most cases they are based on old data which have not yet been verified. Research and surveys to establish accurate acreage are being carried out and the acreage shown may be changed in the future.
