  • Sundance Provincial Park Management Plan
    Sundance Provincial Park Management Plan SUNDANCE PROVINCIAL PARK MANAGEMENT PLAN September, 2006 Preface The Sundance Provincial Park Management Plan provides a long-term vision and day-to-day guidance for stewardship of the park. Department staff, within the context of existing legislation and regulations, prepared the plan. It outlines the type and extent of outdoor recreation and tourism opportunities, facilities and services. The plan provides direction regarding the delivery of heritage appreciation programs that assist Albertans and visitors to understand and appreciate our natural heritage while ensuring its ongoing preservation. The management plan was developed with public input and is intended to provide for the periodic review and revision to reflect the current thinking of Albertans on how our natural heritage will be preserved for present and future generations. The Minister responsible for parks and protected areas has authorized the implementation of the management plan and retains authority to amend or interpret its provisions. VISION STATEMENT FOR THE PARK “Sundance Provincial Park will be managed through clear direction to maintain the health, biodiversity and uniqueness of this ecosystem. Rare and significant natural features will be preserved while providing opportunities for compatible backcountry recreational and educational opportunities.” Sundance Provincial Park Management Plan TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION.........................................................................................................................

Should you have any questions regarding this project, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours truly, FMA HERITAGE INC. Meaghan Porter, M.A. /mp Executive Summary At the request of EDS Group Inc., and on behalf of the Town of Hinton, FMA Heritage Inc. conducted a research program and Historical Resources Impact Assessment (HRIA) to locate, inventory, document and assess the Historic Period Hinton Mine (No. 1257); to provide background historic data to the Town of Hinton; and to facilitate their proposed Hinton Happy Creek Mine Interpretive Program. Documentary research focussed upon themes identified by the Town of Hinton as significant, including general histories of the Coal Branch region, the Hinton Mine explosion, mining techniques, and the people who worked at and operated the mine. Information was collected from the Provincial Archives of Alberta, the Glenbow Archives, the Coal Branch Archives, as well as numerous text and internet sources. The focus of the HRIA was to locate above ground remains. During the assessment, the mine was newly recorded as an archaeological site; the Hinton Mine (No.

  • Historical Resources
    HISTORICAL RESOURCES Prepared by: Daniel A. Meyer, Ph.D., Courtney Lakevold, B.Sc., and Mary Attia, B.Sc. Lifeways of Canada Limited 105, 809 Manning Road N.E. Calgary, AB T2E 7M9 and Sam Wilson, M.Sc., P.Geol. Nautilus Paleontology, Inc. 319 Diamond Willow Point Calgary, AB T3Z 2Z5 March 6, 2012 i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Building on the work of previous Historical Resources Impact Assessment (HRIA) projects in the area, the Vista Coal Mine Project (Project) was subjected to an HRIA and palaeontological HRIA (pHRIA) during the summer and fall of 2011. This report presents a summary of the scope and scale of the HRIA program, summary results, and site specific recommendations regarding potential impact to the recorded sites. A full HRIA report on archaeological and Historic sites will be submitted, as required, to the Historic Resources Management Branch (HRMB) of Alberta Culture and Community Services (ACCS) under Archaeological Survey of Alberta Mitigative Permit 2011-105. A separate palaeontological HRIA report under Mitigative Palaeontological Excavation Permit 11-018 will be submitted to the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology. The archaeological HRIA program involved thorough surface reconnaissance and an intensive subsurface testing program. The Project area was also thoroughly inspected for bedrock exposures and fossil materials during the pHRIA. These work programs have resulted in the recording of 38 Precontact and Historic Period archaeological sites in the Project area, an additional 6 in areas of possible future mining, and 1 site outside of the development zone. These sites range considerably in size, age, and significance. In addition, although the Cache Percotte trail once likely crossed a portion of the project area, neither traces of the trail nor associated sites were found within the Project area.
