EXECUTIVE SUMMARY with the TMX - Anchor Loop Project (The “Project”) Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. Vegetation TMX - Anchor Loop Project November 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY With the TMX - Anchor Loop Project (the “Project”) Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. (“Terasen Pipelines”) proposes to loop a portion of its existing National Energy Board (“NEB”) regulated oil pipeline system (the “Trans Mountain pipeline” or “Trans Mountain”) to increase the capacity of the Trans Mountain pipeline to meet growing shipper demand. The Project involves the construction of 158 km of 812 mm or 914 mm (32-inch or 36-inch) diameter pipe between a location west of Hinton, Alberta at Kilometre Post/Kilometre Loop (“KP/KL") 310.1 and a location near Rearguard, British Columbia (BC) (KP/KL 468.0). The Project also includes the installation of two new pump stations at locations along the Trans Mountain pipeline, one in Alberta at Wolf (KP 188.0) and one in BC, at Chappel (KP 555.5), and the installation of associated aboveground facilities including block valves at several locations and a receiving trap for pipeline cleaning and inspection tools at a location near Rearguard, BC (KP/KL 468.0). Construction of the Project will require temporary construction camps and other temporary work yards. The Project will traverse federal, provincial and private lands, including Jasper National Park (JNP) in Alberta and Mount Robson Provincial Park (MRPP) in BC. Two pipeline route options are being assessed by Terasen Pipelines for the TMX - Anchor Loop, namely the Proposed Route and the Existing Route. Both route options are evaluated within this report. Plant surveys to identify vascular and nonvascular plants as well as communities of concern within the Project Footprint were undertaken in the spring and summer of 2005. In addition, non-native and invasive species were documented and the Ecological Land Classification was verified during the field surveys. Twenty-two species of rare vascular plants (with a provincial rank between S1 and S3) were identified along the Proposed Route and twenty-four species along the Existing Route. On the Proposed Route a total of 101 rare vascular plant populations were found, of which 8 species are ranked as S1, 12 species are ranked S2, and 2 species are ranked S3. Along the Existing Route, a total of 103 rare vascular plant populations were found, of which 7 species are ranked as S1, 15 species are ranked S2, and 2 species are ranked S3. In addition, one population of Canada anemone (considered a Valued Ecosystem Components (VEC) in the Scope and Requirements of the Environmental Assessment for the Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. TMX - Anchor Loop Project (TOR) (CEA Agency et al. 2005) was found along the Existing Route, while no VEC populations were identified along the Proposed Route. Canada anemone was the only plant species considered a VEC observed during the 2005 field investigations. Sixty-two species of rare nonvascular plants were recorded along the Proposed Route and sixty-one species along the Existing Route. A total of 112 rare nonvascular plant populations were recorded on the Proposed Route, of which 16 species are ranked S1, 27 species are ranked S2, 18 species are ranked S3 and 2 species are considered rare in BC. Along the Existing Route, a total of 111 rare nonvascular plant populations were observed, of which 17 species are ranked S1, 26 species are S2, 17 species are S3 and 2 species are considered rare in BC. No nonvascular plant VECs, Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) or Species At Risk Act listed species were observed on either route. Ten plant community types of concern were found along the Proposed Route, including rare, unique and VEC communities. One S1 ranked community, five S2 communities and four S3 communities were noted along the Proposed Route, while five S2 plant communities and no S1 or S3 communities were found along the Existing Route during the vegetation surveys. Four unique plant communities (three in JNP and one in MRPP) were found along the Proposed Route, whereas only two unique plant communities were found along the Existing Route; one of which was noted in JNP and the other in MRPP. Five plant communities identified as VECs in the Scope and Requirements of the Environmental Assessment for the Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. TMX - Anchor Loop Project (TOR) (Canadian Environmental Assessment (CEA) Agency et al. 2005) were found along the Proposed Route while four plant communities identified as VECs were found along the Existing Route. Estimates of salvageable timber volumes that would be cleared within the Footprint of the Proposed and Existing routes were calculated, and are not substantially different between the two route options. Although the Proposed Route would entail slightly more clearing of salvageable timber than the Existing Route in terms of volume, the area of salvageable timber that would be cleared is the same for both routes. Additional site-specific information to be collected in 2006 is also identified in the report. Page i Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc.

Alexander Bajkov’s drawings of bull trout from Jacques Lake, Jasper National Park (Bajkov 1927:334-335). Top: Bajkov’s Figure 2, captioned “Head of specimen of Salvelinus alpinus malma, [female], 500 mm. in length from Jaques [sic] Lake.” Bottom: Bajkov’s Figure 3, captioned “Head of specimen of Salvelinus alpinus malma, [male], 590 mm. in length, from Jaques [sic] Lake.” Although only sketches, Bajkov’s figures well illustrate the most characteristic features of this most characteristic Jasper native fish. These are: the terminal mouth cleft bisecting the anterior profile at its midpoint, the elongated head with tapered snout, flat skull, long lower jaw, and eyes placed high on the head (Cavender 1980:300-302; compare with Cavender’s Figure 3). The head structure of bull trout is well suited to an ambush-type predatory style, in which the charr rests on the bottom and watches for prey to pass over. ABSTRACT I conducted an extensive survey of published and unpublished documents to identify the native fish stocks of Jasper National Park, describe their original condition, determine if there is anything unusual or especially significant about them, assess their present condition, outline what is known of their biology and life history, and outline what measures should be taken to manage and protect them.

Evaluation and interpretation of convolutional-recurrent networks for regional hydrological modelling Sam Anderson1, Valentina Radic1 1Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, V6T 1Z4, Canada 5 Correspondence to: Sam Anderson ([email protected]) Abstract. Deep learning has emerged as a useful tool across geoscience disciplines; however, there remain outstanding questions regarding the suitability of unexplored model architectures and how to interpret model learning for regional scale hydrological modelling. Here we use a convolutional-recurrent network, a deep learning approach for learning both spatial 10 and temporal patterns, to predict streamflow at 226 stream gauges across the region of southwestern Canada. The model is forced by gridded climate reanalysis data and trained to predict observed daily streamflow between 1979 and 2015. To interpret the model learning of both spatial and temporal patterns, we introduce two experiments with evaluation metrics to track the model’s response to perturbations in the input data. The model performs well in simulating the daily streamflow over the testing period, with a median Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) of 0.68 and 35% of stations having NSE > 0.8. When 15 predicting streamflow, the model is most sensitive to perturbations in the input data prescribed near and within the basins being predicted, demonstrating that the model is automatically learning to focus on physically realistic areas. When uniformly perturbing input temperature timeseries to obtain relatively warmer and colder input data, the modelled freshet timing and intensity changes in accordance with the transition timing from below- to above-freezing temperatures.
