  • Watershed Stewardship in Alberta: a Directory of Stewardship Groups, Support Agencies, and Resources
    WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA: A DIRECTORY OF STEWARDSHIP GROUPS, SUPPORT AGENCIES AND RESOURCES APRIL 2005 INTRODUCTION FOREWORD This directory of WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN ALBERTA has been designed to begin a process to meet the needs of individuals, stewardship groups, and support agencies (including all levels of government, non- governmental organizations, and industry). From recent workshops, surveys, and consultations, community- based stewards indicated a need to be better connected with other stewards doing similar work and with supporting agencies. They need better access to information, technical assistance, funding sources, and training in recruiting and keeping volunteers. Some groups said they felt isolated and did not have a clear sense that the work they were doing was important and appreciated by society. A number of steps have occurred recently that are beginning to address some of these concerns. The Alberta Stewardship Network, for example, has been established to better connect stewards to each other and to support agencies. Collaboration with other provincial and national networks (e.g. Canada’s Stewardship Communities Network) is occurring on an on-going basis. Internet-based information sites, such as the Stewardship Canada Portal (www.stewardshipcanada.ca), are being established to provide sources of information, linkages to key organizations, and newsletters featuring success stories and progress being made by grassroots stewards. These sites are being connected provincially and nationally to keep people informed with activities across Canada. The focus of this directory is on watershed stewardship groups working in Alberta. The term ‘watershed’ is inclusive of all stewardship activities occurring on the landscape, be they water, air, land, or biodiversity-based.

    EDMONTON REGION EXTERNAL TRUCK/COMMODITY SURVEY Published: July, 2003 Revised: July, 2004 EDMONTON REGION EXTERNAL TRUCK/COMMODITY SURVEY REPORT AND RESULTS Prepared by: Meheboob Ishani, P.Eng July 2003 SYNOPSIS In the fall of 2001, Alberta Transportation and the City of Edmonton undertook an External Truck/Commodity Survey to allow them to study the movement of commercial goods by the truck mode into and out of the Edmonton Region. The survey was structured similar to the survey undertaken by the City of Calgary in 2000. The intent of the study is to provide planners with information to assess the transportation needs of both Alberta Transportation and the City of Edmonton. Roadside interviews were conducted between September and November 2001 at 24 sites on provincial highways entering the study area (Exhibit 1.2.1 Section 1.2) between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM. In all just, over 6,500 truckers transporting commodities into and out of the Edmonton Region were interviewed entering and exiting the region on various provincial highways. The information gathered from the survey was scaled up to represent daily truck and commodity movement into and out of the study area. Findings of the study indicate: D Almost 16,000 trucks enter or exit the region on a typical weekday on a 24-hour basis; D Approximately 16,200 Commodity trips are made on a typical weekday on a 24- hour basis; D The highways that carry the majority of the trips into and out of the region include Highway 2 South (20%), Highway 16W (13%), Highway 43 (10%), Highway

Given that Covid- 19 remained a dominant force in Alberta, the 2020-21 fiscal year continued to be a challenging time for the AWC, as it was for many other sectors of Alberta society. However, staff, committee and board members adapted, even finding efficiencies in the ‘new way of doing business’, driven by the pandemic and its associated social and economic restrictions. Throughout the year, the Board of Directors continued to be well engaged, holding virtual board and committee meetings, and continuing to move the AWC forward. Despite working from home for the most part, staff played an integral role in supporting this work. We thank them for their extraordinary efforts in these trying times. A significant challenge was the retirement of our Executive Director, Janet Pomeroy. The Board and I express our heartfelt gratitude for Janet’s tireless commitment and work ethic demonstrated throughout her tenure with the AWC. We wish her the very best in her retirement.
