Executive Summary This report sets out the results of the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) reassessment of the Waterhen Lake walleye (Sander vitreus) and northern pike (Esox lucius) commercial gillnet fishery against the MSC Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Fishing. As part of this reassessment, additional lakes are being assessed for inclusion in the overall fishery (to be known as the “Manitoba boreal forest lakes walleye, northern pike, yellow perch, lake whitefish, and lake cisco commercial gillnet fishery”). This larger fishery has 14 proposed units of assessment (UoAs); however, this report only covers 2 UoAs – Waterhen Lake walleye and northern pike. MRAG Americas was contracted in 2018 by the Government of Manitoba (Manitoba Sustainable Development, Wildlife and Fisheries Branch) and the Skownan First Nation to undertake the reassessment of the Waterhen Lake walleye and northern pike fishery and the initial assessment of the other UoAs within the larger Manitoba boreal forest lakes walleye, northern pike, yellow perch (Perca flavescens), lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis), and lake cisco (C. artedi) commercial gillnet fishery. Waterhen Lake was originally certified in June 2014. The assessment was undertaken in accordance with the MSC Fisheries Certification Requirements (FCR) v2.0 and using the MSC Guidance to MSC FCR v2.0, which sets out the assessment and certification process. As a result, to date, the following

    WOLLASTON LAKE ROAD ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT Biophysical Environment 4.0 Biophysical Environment 4.1 INTRODUCTION This section provides a description of the biophysical characteristics of the study region. Topics include climate, geology, terrestrial ecology, groundwater, surface water and aquatic ecology. These topics are discussed at a regional scale, with some topics being more focused on the road corridor area (i.e., the two route options). Information included in this section was obtained in full or part from direct field observations as well as from reports, files, publications, and/or personal communications from the following sources: Saskatchewan Research Council Canadian Wildlife Service Beverly and Qamanirjuaq Caribou Management Board Reports Saskatchewan Museum of Natural History W.P. Fraser Herbarium Saskatchewan Environment Saskatchewan Conservation Data Centre Environment Canada Private Sector (Consultants) Miscellaneous publications 4.2 PHYSIOGRAPHY Both proposed routes straddle two different ecozones. The southern portion is located in the Wollaston Lake Plain landscape area within the Churchill River Upland ecoregion of the Boreal Shield ecozone. The northern portion is located in the Nueltin Lake Plain landscape area within the Selwyn Lake Upland ecoregion of the Taiga Shield ecozone (Figure 4.1). (SKCDC, 2002a; Acton et al., 1998; Canadian Biodiversity, 2004; MDH, 2004). Wollaston Lake lies on the Precambrian Shield in northern Saskatchewan and drains through two outlets. The primary Wollaston Lake discharge is within the Hudson Bay Drainage Basin, which drains through the Cochrane River, Reindeer Lake and into the Churchill River system which ultimately drains into Hudson Bay. The other drainage discharge is via the Fond du Lac River to Lake Athabasca, and thence to the Arctic Ocean.

(date ) AESTRACT This study is concerned with the persistence of human life on the edge of the Canadian Barren Grounds. The Chipewyan make up the largest distinct linguistic and cultural group and are the most easterly among the Northern Athapaskan Indians, or Dene. Over many centuries, the Chipewyan have maintained a form of social life as an edge-of-the-forest people and people of the Barren Grounds to the west of Hudson Bay. The particular aim of this thesis is to attempt, through a survey of the ecological and historical 1iterature , to elucidate something of the traditional adaptive pattern of the Chipewyan in their explcitation of the subarc tic envirorient . Given the fragmentary nature of much of the historical evidence, our limited understanding of the subarctic environment, and the fact that the Chipewyan oecumene (way of looking at life) is largely denied to the modern observer, we acknowledge that this exercise in ecological and historical reconstruction is governed by serious hazards and limitations.
