1.0 INTRODUCTION

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.

The Project loops only a small portion of the Trans Mountain pipeline’s 1,146 km length (Figure 1). A pipeline “loop” is a common and widely-used term describing an additional segment of pipeline parallel to and interconnected with an existing pipeline system. The construction of a loop is a method of adding capacity and operational flexibility to an existing pipeline system. The Trans Mountain pipeline system was constructed in 1952-1953. Two loops were added to the system in 1957, bringing the configuration of the pipeline system (other than pump stations) to its present state.

Construction of the Project is scheduled to commence in mid-2007 and extend until the third quarter of 2008.

1.1 Route Options

Two pipeline route options were assessed in detail for the TMX - Anchor Loop Project, namely the Proposed Route and the Existing Route (i.e., the Trans Mountain pipeline). Both route options are evaluated within this report.

Known reference points along the existing pipeline system are commonly referred to as a Kilometre Post or "KP". KP 0.0 is located at the Terminal where the existing Trans Mountain system originates. KPs are approximately 1 km apart and are primarily used to describe features along the pipeline for operations and maintenance purposes. To delineate features along the Proposed Route, the symbol "KL" or Kilometre Loop has been applied throughout this report. In locations where the Existing Route and the Proposed Route parallel one another, the symbol "KP/KL" has been used to clearly indicate to the reader that the two route alignments abut one another. Where the Proposed Route diverges away from the Existing Route, the KL symbol is used on its own.

Proposed Route The Proposed Route originates in Alberta, approximately 8 km west of the Town of Hinton at KP/KL 310.1 and follows the Existing Route through forested provincial Crown land in Alberta (KP/KL 310.1 to KL 325.7). At KP/KL 324.3, the route diverges from the Existing Route and parallels Yellowhead Highway (Highway 16) into JNP.

The JNP portion of the Proposed Route (KL 325.7 to KP/KL 405.9) traverses federal Crown land. The Proposed Route and the Existing Route are generally coincident within JNP, with the exception of the following segments: • KL 325.7 to KL 336.3 where the route parallels Highway 16;

• KL 336.3 to KL 337.5 where the route crosses the Athabasca River at a new location;

• KL 349.6 to KL 349.9 where the route traverses Windy Point;

• KL 377.8 to KL 379.0 where the route follows an existing power line, Highway 16 and a borrow pit;

• KL 380.2 to KL 382.9 where the route parallels an existing access road (Wynd Road);

• KL 388.1 to KL 391.0 where the route follows Highway 16; and

• KL 396.3 to KP/KL 405.9 where the route follows the abandoned Northern Alberta (CNA) Railway grade before entering MRPP in BC.

Within MRPP (KP/KL 405.9 to KP/KL 466.3), the Proposed Route traverses provincial Crown land and diverges from the Existing Route for four segments: • KL 407.4 to KL 409.7 where the route follows the abandoned CNA Railway grade;

• KL 416.0 to KL 435.3 where the route parallels the Canadian National (CN) Railway and the abandoned CNA Railway grade;

• KL 448.9 to KL 455.3 where the route follows the abandoned CNA Railway grade; and

• KL 457.6 to KL 461.6 where the route parallels the CN Railway on the south side of the Fraser River.

The final portion of the Proposed Route lies within BC (KP/KL 466.3 to KP/KL 468.0), and traverses both provincial Crown land and private lands near the west boundary of MRPP.

Existing Route The Existing Route parallels the existing Trans Mountain system for its entire length. The Existing Route originates in Alberta, approximately 8 km west of the Town of Hinton at KP 310.1, and follows the Trans Mountain system through Alberta (KP 310.1 to KP 325.7), JNP (KP 325.7 to KP/KL 405.9), MRPP (KP/KL 405.9 to KP 466.3) and BC (KP 466.3 to KP 468.0).

1.2 Regulatory Standards

Aquatic resource aspects of the TMX - Anchor Loop project are subject to regulatory guidelines and standards established by at least four federal (NEB, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), Parks Canada and Transport Canada), and three provincial agencies (Alberta Environment, Alberta Sustainable Resource Development (ASRD) and British Columbia Environment). Requirements of each jurisdiction are described below.

Federal 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) was developed for the environmental screening pursuant to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (Government of Canada 1992); and includes requirements of all Responsible Authorities (RAs) and Federal Authorities (FAs). Specific provisions dealing with fish and fish habitat were also identified within the Terms of Reference document.

National Energy Board Filing Manual The NEB Filing Manual Guide A identifies filing requirements for Fish and Fish Habitat (page 4A-49 to -50) and Species at Risk/Special Status (page 4A-51 to -52). This guide has directed the fisheries information included in the NEB Application. The NEB will also act as a RA for an environmental screening conducted pursuant to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (Government of Canada 1992).

Transport Canada and DFO have jurisdiction over watercourses that may be affected by pipeline construction through two acts: the Navigable Waters Protection Act (NWPA) (Government of Canada 1985a) and the Fisheries Act (Government of Canada 1985b), respectively. Both DFO and Transport Canada will act as RAs for this project. At least two DFO offices (Edmonton and Kamloops) and two Transport Canada offices (Edmonton and Vancouver), in two regions (Central and Arctic; and Pacific) will be involved in reviewing fisheries information for the TMX - Anchor Loop Project.

Transport Canada The NWPA is a long-standing act, invoked in 1882 to legislate uninterrupted navigation of Canada’s waterways. Recent guidelines have simplified the required reporting of pipeline construction with respect to the NWPA (McLean 2003). Instream temporary works (including isolation dams) do not require reporting under the NWPA provided they are not located on one of 11 identified in Alberta (McLean 2003). However, temporary bridges are exempt from the guideline and are still subject to review/approval under the NWPA (McLean 2003).

Fisheries and Oceans Canada The Fisheries Act (Government of Canada 1985b) prohibits the destruction of fish; alteration, disruption, or destruction of fish habitat; and deposition of deleterious substances into water frequented by fish or that flow into other waterbodies frequented by fish (sections 32, 35 and 36

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 6

of the Act, respectively). It is important to recognize that only DFO can determine whether the Fisheries Act (Government of Canada 1985b) has, or could be, contravened. It is Terasen Pipelines’ responsibility to provide sufficient data and information such that DFO can issue a letter of advice stating whether violation of the Fisheries Act (Government of Canada 1985b) is likely to occur given works proposed. If a violation is likely, the proponent must obtain Ministerial approval to proceed with the works and remain in compliance with the Act. Part of this approval process requires that any harmful alteration, disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat be mitigated through enhancement/improvement of that already existing, to satisfy the “No Net Loss” guiding principle (DFO 1998). The fisheries program assumes that compensation will be required for several proposed crossings, including the Athabasca River, and additional field work will be required outside the proposed pipeline route to document fish and fish habitat in order to identify enhancement or improvement opportunities.

Parks Canada Parks Canada manages fish and fisheries within JNP. All activities within the park must comply with the Canada National Parks Act (Government of Canada 2000) and the Jasper National Park of Canada Management Plan (Parks Canada 2000). Parks Canada will also act as a RA for an environmental screening conducted pursuant to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (Government of Canada 1992).

Although final determinations on Fisheries Act (Government of Canada 1985b) conformance will be made by DFO, the JNP Management Plan identifies aquatic ecosystem management objectives. These were explicitly considered in the fisheries program.

Provincial

Alberta Watercourse crossings in Alberta may require review by Alberta Environment (AENV) under the Canada Water Act (Government of Canada 1985c). Two Codes of Practice have been developed for pipeline and access crossings. Although these codes do not apply directly to NEB-regulated pipelines, they provide useful guidance for crossing design, and were used as the basis for developing preferred and alternate crossing methods and proposed instream work windows that apply throughout the project.

Alberta Sustainable Resource Development (ASRD) manages fisheries within Alberta, issues fish collection permits, and directs inventory and research programs. ASRD staff in Edson and Edmonton were consulted to take advantage of their extensive experience on appropriate local sampling methods and mitigation/compensation options, although final determinations on Fisheries Act conformance will be made by DFO.

British Columbia The Environmental Assessment and Major Projects group of British Columbia Ministry of Environment (BCENV) (formerly the Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection (MWLAP)) will coordinate provincial involvement in the TMX - Anchor Loop Project. The BCENV Parks and Protected Areas group manages activities within MRPP in accordance with the Park Act

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 7

(Government of British Columbia 1996) and the Mount Robson Provincial Park Ecosystem Management Plan (MELP 2001). This plan identifies aquatic management objectives that were explicitly considered in the fisheries program.

BCENV also manages fisheries within British Columbia, issues fish collection permits, and directs inventory and research programs. Although final determinations on Fisheries Act conformance will be made by DFO, BCENV staff in Mount Robson, Kamloops and Prince George were consulted to take advantage of their extensive experience on appropriate local sampling methods and mitigation/compensation options.

The BC Oil and Gas Commission has developed several stream crossing guidelines for pipelines in northeast British Columbia. These do not apply directly to NEB-regulated pipelines, but provide useful guidance for crossing design, and were considered when developing preferred and alternate crossing methods and proposed instream work windows.

The BC Resource Information Standards Committee (RISC) has developed standards for fish and fish habitat inventories. These were adopted for all field work in MRPP and BC Crown lands.

Regulatory Consultation As noted above, the following federal, provincial, regional and local agencies were contacted through the course of the fish and fish habitat investigations:

• DFO – Edmonton District; Kamloops District, Pacific and Yukon Major Projects

• Transport Canada – Edmonton and Vancouver offices

• Parks Canada – Jasper National Park

• ASRD – Edson fisheries staff, Edmonton Fisheries Science specialist

• BCENV – Mount Robson Provincial Park; Thompson Okanagan Region, Kamloops office fisheries staff; Peace Omineca Region, Prince George office fisheries staff

1.3 Study Objectives

The primary objective of the fish and fish habitat programme was to identify and confirm the locations and fish-bearing nature of waterbodies along the Proposed and Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route, from KP/KL 310.1 to KP/KL 468 along the TMX - Anchor Loop Project. Sampling also documented fish presence/absence and habitat productivity.

Field work was preceded by a literature search to locate information about watercourses already investigated, and to refine the scope and scale of investigations. Investigations focused on those watercourses with little to no aquatic information. General information about fishes and

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 8

their habitat was available for large creeks and rivers traversed by the Proposed and Existing routes. Field work was designed to: • determine the nature and extent of riverine habitat and its potential to support fishes and individual life-history stages during fall 2004 and spring and summer 2005;

• determine fish species composition and relative abundance within a field-defined zone-of- influence at each crossing;

• record concentrations of fall and spring-spawning fish and/or activity; and

• document presence of species at risk or species of special status.

Information collected during the fish and fish habitat programme is provided in the following volumes and summary crossing table:

• Fish-Bearing Atlas: Proposed Route (KL 310.1 to KL 468);

• Fish-Bearing Atlas: Existing Route (KP 310.1 to KP 468);

• Non-Fish-Bearing Report: Proposed Route

2.0 SETTING AND PREVIOUSLY DOCUMENTED FISH PRESENCE

2.1 Literature Sources

Information on previously documented fish presence in water bodies crossed by the Proposed and Existing routes was sourced from a wide range of organizations, archives, and previous studies. These are listed by route segment, and included:

Alberta - FMIS (Fisheries Management Information System) - AAR Library – Northern River Basin Study

Jasper National Park - Parks Canada (library) - AAR Library – Northern River Basin Study

Mount Robson Provincial Park and BC - British Columbia Ministry of Environment Resource Atlas (library containing published and unpublished data from BC Parks) - Fish Wizard (online web-based tool containing information from Fisheries and Oceans Canada and BCENV)

The following sources were also approached for information on fish and fish habitat, but had little or no information: - BCENV, Mount Robson Fisheries - Trout Unlimited (library) - University of Calgary (library) -Bio. Abstracts (periodical index) - AENV (library)

Other industrial and First Nation sources were also approached, but did not provide information or respond to requests to participate, were:

2.2 TMX - Anchor Loop Project Setting Overview

Athabasca Watershed: AB & JNP The Athabasca River watershed is one of four major drainage basins in the province of Alberta (Nelson and Paetz 1992; Stantec and Golder 2000). The Athabasca River originates from the Columbia Glacier in JNP and flows northeast for approximately 1,300 km to Athabasca Lake in northeastern Alberta. Through JNP, the Existing Route and Proposed Route parallels the Athabasca River, crossing it once before deviating west at the confluence with the Miette River adjacent to the town site of Jasper.

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 10

Fraser Watershed: MRPP & BC The Fraser River is the second largest drainage system in British Columbia and the largest river system contained within the province (McPhail and Carveth 1994). The Fraser River originates near Cube Ridge in MRPP within the , flows north towards Prince George, and then turns south, making its way to the near Vancouver. It is known to support 52 species of fishes of which 19 are located within the upper Fraser River (Table 1). Several people indicated that historical information for this reach of the Fraser River within MRPP is very limited and little if any information is available (Wayne Van Velzen, pers. comm., Lynn Blouw, pers. comm.).

2.3 Alberta: KL/KP 310 to KL/KP 325

The northeast section of the Proposed Route, is drained to Maskuta Creek or its tributaries. Maskuta Creek flows northeast into the Athabasca River approximately 12 km downstream from KL/KP 311. Studies in 1992 and 1993 at the confluence of Maskuta Creek and the Athabasca River found mountain whitefish, lake whitefish, bull trout, brook trout (S. fontinalis), rainbow trout, burbot, longnose sucker and lake chub (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994a, 1994b). Within Maskuta Creek, burbot, rainbow trout, spoonhead sculpin (Cottus ricei), pearl dace (Margariscus margarite), and brook stickleback (Culaea inconstans) were sampled in

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 11

October 1996 (R. Hawryluk, pers. comm.). Seabolt Creek flows into Maskuta Creek on the south side near KL/KP 314.5 and has documented brook trout and rainbow trout (1997, 1996 and 1995 respectively) (R. Hawryluk, pers. comm.).

The Wildhorse Lakes, located upstream of the unnamed channel at KP/KL 317 are stocked annually with 7,500 rainbow trout and in 2004 were stocked with 1,000 brown trout (Salmo trutto) (Alberta Sustainable Resource and Development, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004).

From KP/KL 325 to the boundary with JNP (KP 326.5) all crossings are located on Drystone Creek or its tributaries before they enter the Athabasca River. No historical data on fish or their habitat was available for Drystone Creek.

2.4 Jasper National Park (JNP): KP/KL 325 to KP/KL 406

Athabasca River (KP 326.8 to KP 330) Northern pike (Esox lucius) and lake chub have been well-documented in the Athabasca River (Bajkov 1927, National Parks Service 1948, Currier and Ward 1952, 1953, and 1954, Anderson and Donald 1978, Mayhood 1980). Bull trout, rainbow trout, mountain whitefish, longnose sucker, and spoonhead sculpin were documented in 1927 and 1974 (Bajkov 1927, Ward 1974,). Ward (1974) also mentions that rainbow trout were historically stocked in the Athabasca River.

The Northern River Basins Study was a large project that placed emphasis on fish in its efforts to evaluate the effects of development on the watersheds in northern Alberta. It led to the first records of brook trout, bull trout, lake whitefish, and white sucker within the Athabasca River in Jasper National Park (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994a, 1994b, 1995).

Fiddle River (KP 327) The Fiddle River originates from Mount Bryant in JNP and flows into the Athabasca River immediately east of the JNP Boundary (KP 325). During a telemetry study, radio-tagged bull trout were located near the mouth of the Fiddle River (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994c). Mountain whitefish are also known inhabitants of the Fiddle River (Ward 1974, National Parks Service 1948, Donald et al. 1977, Currier and Ward 1952, 1953, and 1954). Ward (1974) reports that rainbow trout and cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki) have been stocked in the Fiddle River.

Athabasca River and Jasper Lake (KP/KL 337 to KP/KL 378) Results from two sampling seasons indicate that the Athabasca River near the confluence with the Snake Indian River (immediately north of KP/KL 337) provides excellent spawning and rearing habitat for mountain whitefish. In total, this reach is known to support bull trout, rainbow trout, mountain whitefish, lake whitefish, northern pike, and longnose sucker (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994a, 1994b, 1995). Although the Snake Indian River is not crossed by either the Existing or Proposed routes there is excellent data for this channel which

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 12

can be extrapolated to adjacent areas of the Athabasca River and nearby tributaries. Species reported from the Snake Indian River include northern pike, pygmy whitefish, mountain whitefish, rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, and bull trout (National Parks Service 1948, Currier and Ward 1952, 1953, and 1954, Ward 1974, Mayhood 1980, Hardy Associates Ltd. 1981, Donald et al. 1985).

The Athabasca River widens near KP/KL 342 to form Jasper Lake, which is reported to contain Dolly Varden (bull trout), northern pike, lake whitefish, mountain whitefish, rainbow trout, brook trout, longnose sucker, lake chub, and burbot (Ward 1974, RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994b). The Athabasca River forms again upstream of Jasper Lake. Both the Existing and Proposed routes are located on the northwest side of the Athabasca River. Vine Creek (KP/KL 351.3) historically was stocked with rainbow trout (Ward 1974). Fish are not known to occur in Corral Creek (KP/KL 352.7) or Cobblestone Creek (KP/KL 355.3).

Snaring River (KP/KL 360.2) The reach of the Athabasca River between the Snaring River and Jasper Lake is known to contain seven sport fish and one coarse fish species. Historically, northern pike, mountain whitefish, and bull trout were reported from the Snaring River (National Parks Service 1948, Currier and Ward 1952, 1953, and 1954, Ward 1974, Mayhood 1992). Ward (1974) indicated that the river was stocked with rainbow trout.

Mountain whitefish are known to spawn within the Snaring River (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994b). Overall the Snaring River provides excellent spawning habitat for mountain whitefish and rearing habitat for bull trout (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1995).

‘Sucker’, Pyramid and Cottonwood Creeks (KP/KL 371.9 to KP/KL 375) ‘Sucker Creek’, as it is locally referred to, is considered to be one of the most productive and diverse stretches of water within JNP (W. Hughson, pers. comm.). It is known to contain white sucker and is a spawning area for longnose sucker (Mayhood 1980, Hardy Associates Ltd. 1981). Mountain whitefish, brook trout, lake chub, and rainbow trout have all been captured in ‘Sucker Creek’ (Hardy Associates Ltd. 1981). Nearby Pyramid Creek (KP/KL 372.1) has no known fish populations but Pyramid Lake, upstream, is known to contain lake chub, longnose sucker, Jasper longnose sucker (Catostomus catostomus lacustris), and mountain whitefish (Bajkov 1927, Rawson 1940, Ward 1974, Anderson and Donald 1978, Mayhood 1980, McAllister and Camus 1984).

Surveys of Cottonwood Creek identified rainbow trout, brook trout and Dolly Varden (bull trout) (Hardy Associates Ltd. 1981).

Miette River (KP/KL 378) The Existing Route and Proposed Route turn west at the confluence of the Athabasca and Miette rivers, near Jasper town-site. The Miette River is a large tributary to the upper Athabasca River and originates near Mount Mahood in the Victoria Cross Ranges of the Rocky Mountains. It flows south to the and then east to its confluence with the Athabasca River.

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 13

At the confluence, mountain whitefish, bull trout and northern pike have been recorded (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994b). Within the Athabasca River upstream from the confluence with the Miette River, populations of bull trout, rainbow trout, mountain whitefish, burbot, white sucker and brook trout are known (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994b, 1995).

The Miette River is known to support northern pike, mountain whitefish, rainbow trout, bull trout, and lake chub (Bajkov 1927, National Parks Service 1948, Currier and Ward 1952, 1953, 1954, Ward 1974, Anderson and Donald 1978, Mayhood 1980). The Miette River has also been stocked historically with rainbow and cutthroat trout (Ward 1974). The lower sections of the Miette River have been found to support brook trout, rainbow trout, mountain whitefish, northern pike, burbot, spoonhead sculpin and bull trout (Hardy Associates Ltd. 1981, RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1994b).

Many species, such as brook trout, rainbow trout and mountain whitefish found in the Miette River have also been found in its tributaries, such as Minaga Creek (P&E Environmental Consulting 2001). Meadow Creek, also a tributary to the Miette River, is known to support bull trout (National Parks Service 1948). Not all tributaries to the Miette River are documented as fish bearing; Muhigan, Conifer, and Clairvaux creeks have no known populations of fish.

The remainder of the Existing Route and Proposed Route within JNP are parallel to the Miette River until they cross into MRPP through the Yellowhead Pass. Over this section, Derr Creek is crossed; it is known to support bull trout (National Parks Service 1948).

2.5 Mount Robson Provincial Park (MRPP) – British Columbia (KP/KL 406 to KP/KL 466)

Yellowhead Lake (KP/KL 410 to KP/KL 416) and Yellowhead Creek (KP/KL 416.4) Through the Yellowhead Pass, the Proposed Route parallels the Existing Route to KP/KL 416. This common alignment crosses Yellowhead Creek twice near the headwaters. Yellowhead Creek is known to support burbot, mountain whitefish, longnose sucker, and rainbow trout (Ellis 1986, RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1993, Fisheries and Oceans Canada 1995a, Fisheries and Oceans Canada 1995b). Seven tributaries to Yellowhead Creek that are crossed along this segment have no known fish presence.

Yellowhead Creek flows into Yellowhead Lake which is approximately 6 km long and supports seven known sport fishes: burbot, lake trout, mountain whitefish, rainbow trout, and Dolly Varden (bull trout) (H.W.L. 1957, Janssen 1970, Janssen and Bustard 1970, Wightman 1976, Philip 1986). A report with data from 1966 indicated that the lake was stocked with rainbow trout (Ministry of Sustainable Resource Management (unknown year)). The Existing Route and Proposed Route cross seven tributaries to Yellowhead Lake including Rockingham Creek. Rockingham Creek is documented to support burbot and mountain whitefish, and has potential spawning and rearing habitat near the mouth of the creek (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1993). There is no known fish presence in the six other tributaries. An unnamed channel at KP/KL 413.9 flows into Witney Lake, which is reported to support rainbow trout, longnose

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 14

sucker and lake chub (Miller 1981). The outlet from Yellowhead Lake flows into Yellowhead Creek, which flows west for approximately 1.5 km to its confluence with the Fraser River.

Fraser River (KP 417.4 to KP/KL 466) After Yellowhead Lake, the Existing Route and Proposed Route diverge before rejoining at KP/KL 435.3, just east of Moose Lake. The segment parallels the Fraser River.

Ghita Creek and Grant Brook (KP 420.3 and KP/KL 428.6, respectively) both support Dolly Varden (bull trout) and rainbow trout (MELP unknown year). Cottonwood Creek crossed by the Proposed Route, is known to support Dolly Varden (bull trout) (MELP 1994a and 1994b). Moose River is crossed by both routes and a recent study captured burbot and mountain whitefish (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1993). An angling report indicates that Dolly Varden (bull trout) and rainbow trout are also present in Moose River (MELP unknown year).

The Fraser River flows into Moose Lake which is approximately 11 km long. The Proposed Route parallels the Existing Route north of Moose Lake. The common route crosses 42 tributaries to Moose Lake, none of which have any known fish presence. A 1957 study concluded that Dolly Varden (bull trout), lake trout, mountain whitefish and two species of sucker inhabit Moose Lake (H.W.L. 1957). Moose Lake was stocked with 8,000 rainbow trout in 1966 (Ministry of Sustainable Resource Management unknown year). In 1970, the presence of lake trout and mountain trout was confirmed (Janssen 1970), and in 1992 mountain whitefish, burbot, longnose sucker, and pygmy whitefish were sampled (Donald 1992). Thunder Creek and an unnamed channel on the south side of the lake were found to support burbot, mountain whitefish and sockeye salmon (RL&L Environmental Services Ltd. 1993).

West of Moose Lake, the Proposed Route diverges from the Existing Route for much of its length. Both routes parallel the Fraser River, ultimately crossing to the southern side of the valley. The remainder of the crossings located within MRPP have no known fish presence.

2.6 British Columbia (KP/KL 466 to KP/KL 468)

There is no known fish presence in the waterbodies crossed by the common alignment of the Existing Route and Proposed Route between the eastern boundary of MRPP and KP/KL 468.

Within the Fraser River there is a known chinook salmon spawning ground downstream of the Anchor Loop, near the confluence with Marathon Creek (Trans Mountain Pipeline Company Ltd. 1997, Fee 1980). An additional spawning ground for chinook salmon occurs further downstream near Tete Jaune (Fee 1980).

2.7 Summary of TMX - Anchor Loop Project Documented Fish Presence

Within the length of the TMX - Anchor Loop Project, 30 species have been previously documented. Of these species, 17 were sport fish, 4 were coarse fish and 9 cyprinids. The distribution of species along the Proposed and Existing routes, by province was:

3.0 METHODS

3.1 Preliminary Field Work

In late-September 2004 representatives from AAR began to collect relevant fisheries information and obtained all necessary research and fish collection permits for fieldwork carried out in fall 2004. Additional fish collection permits were obtained for the spring, summer and fall work carried out in 2005. All field investigations were undertaken in accordance with the terms and conditions of BC Parks (PG0510206) and Parks Canada National Permit (#362) and Research/Collection permits (#2004-032, 203 and 204, 2005-24) permits. Special/Restricted Activity permits were also obtained for all field work carried out in Jasper National Park (#2640, 2646, 2665, 2670, 2809, 2818 and 2819).

Representatives from BCENV and ASRD were contacted by telephone as well as the Environmental Coordinators for Terasen Pipelines and local First Nations representatives assisting with field work. Prior to going into the field, watercourses were identified on 1:50,000 topographic maps in Alberta, and on Terrain Resource Inventory Mapping (TRIM) and digital hydrology layers overlaid on rectified 1:10,000 photo-based maps in British Columbia.

A field kick-off meeting for AAR field crews was held in Calgary on September 20, 2004 to confirm project objectives, methods, field survey plans, and scheduling. The field survey plan incorporated route locations, scope, design, and methods, access and transportation constraints, permits and operational regulations required, training and safety issues, and roles and responsibilities of the field crew.

3.2 Fish and Fish Habitat Field Work Investigations

All crossings of smaller watercourses along the Existing Route from KP/KL 310.1 to KP/KL 468 were visited first. In many cases the crossing locations along the Proposed Route were on watercourses already crossed by the Existing Route.

Field crews operating in each province collected similar data with respect to fish presence and habitat suitability. Specific provincial standards were adhered to in both provinces to satisfy research permit requirements and to facilitate fish collection permit return requirements (Fisheries Management Information System (FMIS) in Alberta and Fisheries Data Information System (FDIS) in British Columbia). All sites were geo-referenced with UTM coordinates using a portable global positioning system (GPS). This included the pipeline crossing location and the upstream and downstream extent of the channel surveyed. Specific data collection methods for each province are discussed in sub-sections “Alberta” and “British Columbia”.

2004 Fall 2004 fish and fish habitat investigations were carried out over a 25-day period from September 27 to October 21. Up to six field crews, each consisting of one fish biologist and one

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 17

field assistant, traversed the Existing Route and Proposed Route using a combination of foot traverse, trucks and all terrain vehicles. Crews from Mainstream Aquatics Ltd. of Edmonton, Alberta and Solander Ecological of Victoria, BC were retained to assist with the field investigations. In late-October, 2004, two members of the Secwepemc Fisheries Commission, a division of the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council Society, joined in the collection of fisheries information in MRPP and on BC Crown Lands. Crossing agreements and field arrangements were made with Canadian National Railway (CNR) to access the Proposed Route in MRPP.

2005 Spring 2005 field investigations commenced on May 9 and continued over a 16-day period. Four crews, each consisting of one fish biologist and one field assistant, traversed the Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route and Proposed Route using a combination of foot traverse, trucks and all terrain vehicles. Restrictions on all terrain vehicles were in effect within JNP. A member of the Secwepemc Fisheries Commission again joined AAR staff in MRPP during the spring 2005 field programme. An orientation programme was required by CNR for all staff that crossed over or worked adjacent to any CNR tracks. This primarily affected sites on the Proposed Route within MRPP.

During the spring 2005 field programme several crossings in BC were found to be colder than the minimum required for BC waters, and still partially covered in ice. These were visited again in summer 2005.

Further field investigations were undertaken in fall 2005 to supplement existing data on several larger rivers that had not yet been sampled in the TMX - Anchor Loop Project (see Section 6.0 Supplementary Studies).

Alberta Each field crew investigated and documented the riverine habitat, channel morphology, and fish species composition, relative abundance, and distribution along the Existing Route and Proposed Route from KP/KL 310.1 to Drystone Creek immediately east of the JNP boundary (KP/KL 325) through JNP to its western boundary (KP/KL 406).

The sections of channel sampled included those areas that may be affected by instream construction (also known as the zone-of-influence). This zone represents “…the area of the water body where 90% of the sediment discharged as a result of the works will be deposited” (Alberta Environment (AENV) 2001a, b). The extent of this zone depends on various parameters which include channel gradient, width, depth, morphology (shape and roughness), water velocity, discharge, and instream vegetation. Professional judgment based on experience and an understanding of these factors was used to determine the extent of the zone of influence downstream from the crossings proposed. In most cases a minimum of 6 transects were sampled (at the crossing location, and 50 and 100 m upstream and 100, 200, and 300 m downstream). Where the crossing occurred immediately adjacent to the mouth of a tributary or river, and there was insufficient distance to accommodate transects at 100, 200, or 300 m downstream from the crossing, transects were established within the reach available, or the entire reach sampled.

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 18

Physical parameters including channel bankfull and wetted widths, bank height, and water depth, were quantified across each transect. Channel width, bank height, and water depth were measured to the nearest 0.01 m. Water velocity was measured with a SwofferTM digital current meter and wading rod, or using the floating chip method where there was insufficient depth for the Swoffer current meter. Discharge was then calculated using a mid-section method (Orth 1983). Water temperature, pH, and conductivity were measured at the existing or potential crossing location with a Multiline P4™ multimeter. Bank stability and shape, dominant and sub- dominant substrates, and embeddedness were described qualitatively.

Habitat units throughout the zones of influence were identified and enumerated. The length and maximum depth of each unit was measured with a hip chain and folding meter stick. Watercourse and riparian vegetation characteristics that affect fish habitat potential were also described. These included substrate composition, instream and overhead cover, riparian vegetation composition, and canopy closure. Fish habitat was rated as high, moderate, or low according to its potential to provide spawning, rearing, wintering, and migrating habitat for individual fish species or all species in aggregate. A photographic record of the sites was compiled.

Fish communities were sampled, where water levels permitted, using a float (Smith-Root Inc., Type 2.5 GPP, Vancouver, Washington) or backpack (Smith-Root Inc., Type 12-B POW, Vancouver, Washington) electrofisher. Sampling effort was apportioned evenly across each habitat type throughout the zone of influence of each crossing. Fish immobilized by the electrofisher were retrieved with a dip net and placed in a bucket containing fresh stream water to recover. Fish sampled were returned to the river unharmed from where they were captured. Catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) is described as the number of fish caught per 100 seconds electrofished. Baited “Gee” type minnow traps were set in selected watercourses that were not electrofished due to the presence of beaver ponds or to supplement catch data from the electrofisher. Minnow traps were deployed for an entire day, or overnight and recovered the following morning. All fish captured were identified to species, fork length measured (from nose to tail fork) to the nearest millimetre, and their sex and life-history stage determined (if discernable externally).

British Columbia Fish species composition, relative abundance and distribution were documented at fish-bearing streams along the Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route and Proposed Route. Fieldwork was conducted under scientific collection permits granted by the Victoria and Omineca regional offices of the BCENV. Wherever possible, presence-absence sampling was conducted at locations where fish were likely to be present. Inventory methods were consistent with 1:20,000 RISC standards (Ministry of Sustainable Resource Management 2001) and augmented for the purpose of assessing pipeline construction methodologies. Protocols outlined in the British Columbia Fish-Stream Identification Guidebook and Riparian Management Area Guidebook (Forest Practices Code 1995a and 1995b respectively) were also incorporated in the field program design.

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 19

Given the late start of field work in 2004 (October), and because the focus was on assessing habitat potential as well as presence of fishes, electrofishing was conducted even where BCENV inventory standards (minimum temperature 4° C, 35 μS conductivity) could not be adhered to. Any such water body was assessed again in spring of 2005. Several sites were also found to be less than 4° C in spring of 2005, and so were visited again in early summer 2005 before being classified.

All fish captured were identified to species. If none were captured or observed with one sampling method, a second was undertaken where feasible as per RISC standards (e.g., trapping, snorkeling, or angling). Inventory methods always included electrofishing as one of the methods. All sampling data were recorded on BC BCENV fish collection forms. Site Cards were completed for most sites.

For each crossing, aquatic habitat and fish population inventories were conducted over a minimum distance of 400 m (100 m upstream and 300 m downstream from the crossing site). Variations in the methods were developed on a stream by stream basis as needed. For example, if less than 300 m existed between a site and its downstream parent stream, the entire channel was sampled and conditions at the confluence of the mainstem river were recorded and photographed. In some cases, distances greater than 300 m were surveyed because habitats present were sensitive, or there was appreciable variation in habitat types. In other cases, the inventory effort was reduced to avoid excessive contact with sensitive species (e.g. adfluvial bull trout). Deviations from this standard methodology are noted on the fisheries data summary sheets and Site Cards.

Riverine habitat inventories upstream and downstream of the visited crossings followed RISC standards (Ministry of Sustainable Resource Management 2001). Habitat parameters measured by the field crews included channel bank full and wetted widths across a minimum of six transects, bank height and stability, flood sign and nature, disturbance indicators, channel shape, pattern, morphology and confinement, residual and maximum pool depths, instream and overhead cover, riparian vegetation and canopy closure (both as percent of channel). Water quality parameters including conductivity (µS/cm), turbidity, water and air temperatures (°C), and pH were all measured with MultiLine P4TM computerized water quality multi-meters in situ. Each site was photographed to provide a visual record as per the RISC Standard.

3.3 Data Interpretation

Data collected during the 2004 and 2005 sampling programme were used to complete a summary crossing table of all crossings (Appendix A). Specific key components of that crossing table were used for comparison of the Proposed Route and Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route. Key components and recommendations were derived using the following methods.

Stream Classification All waterbody crossings along the TMX - Anchor Loop Project were classified with a classification established for the Project (Table 2) A project specific classification was required to standardize the existing stream classifications that exist for Alberta (AENV 2001a, b) and

Fish-Bearing v Non-Fish-Bearing Classification Fish-bearing status of each watercourse was assigned based on existing inventory information or fish presence-absence sampling conducted over one or two seasons (Figure 2). Sites where no fish were sampled or observed in fall 2004, but were considered to have the potential to support fishes, were assessed again in spring of 2005. Sites where only a single species was captured or observed in fall 2004, were also fished again in spring 2005 to determine the presence of spring spawning species.

In order to classify a water body as “non-fish-bearing” in British Columbia, it is necessary to visit and sample that water body in two different seasons. Typically this designation can be applied to the whole system since the lowermost section of the watercourse was sampled. Although a requirement only in British Columbia, many JNP sites were also visited a second time in spring 2005. These sites were those that had the habitat potential to have spring spawners or had a confluence with a larger system and therefore the potential to be used as a staging area.

Fish and Fish Habitat Sensitivity Rating All crossings investigated, with the exception of those with no visible channel (NVC) were given a Sensitivity Rating. Ratings were given as either Low, Low-Moderate, Moderate, Moderate- High, or High. The Sensitivity Rating uses an average for fish habitat rated for spring and fall spawning, rearing, wintering and migration (see Appendix A).

Determining the Sensitivity Rating followed a process that combined:

• TMX Classification derived from channel width and fish presence or absence. • Riverine habitat potential to support fishes at the time of sampling. • Potential for that habitat to support fishes at other times (e.g., winter low-flow).

A sensitivity rating was then assigned based on an extrapolation of habitat potential and conditions that might exist at the time of construction (Figure 3). Non-fish-bearing streams were generally rated as low, unless habitat present within the zone of influence was rated higher than marginal (low).

Derivation of Instream Work Windows Proposed Instream work windows were proposed for all crossings based on the following: a) The species sampled at each crossing. b) The specific life-history stage(s) of each species (i.e., young-of-the-year, juveniles, adults, spawning adults) known to occur at each crossing. c) The habitat available and its suitability for spawning, rearing, over-wintering, and migration.

Proposed work windows are intended to protect each ‘critical life-history stage’ (spawning adults, incubating eggs, newly emerged fry) of each species. These windows represent the period when construction activities should occur to avoid or minimize adverse effects on fish and their habitat. Generalized instream work windows have been identified by provincial agencies for both Alberta (AENV 2001a, b) and British Columbia based on average life history attributes recorded for species over much or all of their range. Specific instream work windows have also been proposed for operations and maintenance activities along the existing Trans Mountain pipeline route (TMPL 1997). These designated work windows were refined for the TMX - Anchor Loop Project by defining species-specific least risk periods based on sampling results and the actual life-history of populations in headwater, montane systems in the upper Athabasca and Fraser watersheds (Appendix A).

Where multiple species occur within a waterbody, all instream work windows were overlapped and the period with no sensitive life history stages was defined as the combined work window.

Non-fish-bearing waterbodies were generally allocated an “open” instream work window, unless the sensitivity of the water body was rated as “high”, or where there was a potential to affect fish or their habitat immediately downstream.

Derivation of Pipeline Crossing Method Proposed Recommended pipeline crossing methods that protect fish and their habitat were proposed for each crossing following the stepwise questions below:

Fish-Bearing Waterbody 1. Do any of the proposed crossings affect any “critical habitat” (habitat that if removed/altered, would impact 80% or more of a waterbody’s population)? a. If “yes”, then the crossing method proposed defaulted to “trenchless” b. If “no”, then “isolation” was considered.

2. Can the water body be isolated without affecting fish or their activities (e.g., reproduction or migration) adversely? a. If “yes”, then “isolation” was the pipeline crossing method proposed. b. If “no”, then can the fish or fish habitat issue be resolved with a specific timing window? i. If “yes”, then “isolation” was considered during a specific timing window. ii. If “no”, and the presence of fish or fish assemblages was during a non- critical life-history stage, then “isolation with fish salvage” was proposed, or iii. If “no”, and the presence of fish or fish assemblages was during a critical life-history stage, then “trenchless” was the preferred pipeline crossing method.

Non-Fish-Bearing Waterbody 3. Is the water body dry or intermittent? a. If “yes”, then during the times that the crossing is dry or frozen to bottom, an “open cut” method was proposed. b. If “no” (i.e., flow is perennial), then “isolation” was the proposed pipeline crossing method.

4. Was the crossing classified as having No Visible Channel (NVC)? If so, then “open cut” was the default crossing method proposed.

5. Was the crossing classified as a Non-Classified Drainage (NCD)? If so, then… a. During periods when it was dry or frozen to bottom, “open cut” was the pipeline crossing method proposed. b. At all other times, “isolation” was proposed.

Recommendations for Monitoring Monitoring was recommended for each crossing where fish were sampled and at several non- fish-bearing crossings where the risk to fish-bearing habitat immediately downstream was considered to be high. These non-fish-bearing crossings were generally characterized by steep gradient with adjacent fish-bearing habitat within the zone-of-influence.

Applied Aquatic Research Ltd. 26

Derivation of Vehicle Crossing Method Proposed Vehicle crossing methods proposed for each crossing were derived after considering: • The morphology of the waterbody at the crossing (width, depth and bank shape), • The suitability and practical application of available crossing methods, • The sensitivity of the fish and fish habitat being crossed, and • The timing window proposed for the works (summer or winter).

Recommendations by the Oil and Gas Commission (OGC) for stream crossings in northeast BC (OGC 2004) and measures for temporary winter crossings provided by the former MWLAP (MWLAP 2004) were considered when deriving the vehicle crossing method proposed. Crossing methods are based on the notation established in Alberta under the Code for Practice for Watercourse Crossings (AENV 2001b), namely:

Type 1 Single span bridge. Type 2 Multi span bridge. Type 3 Ramp and culvert, or ramp and open bottom structure, where specified. Type 4 Ford Type 5 Log or snow fills (includes temporary crossings such as ice bridges)

Fish and Fish Habitat Risk Rating The overall risk to fish and their habitat was rated for fish-bearing streams utilizing the “Sensitivity Rating” in conjunction with the pipeline and vehicle crossing method proposed, and the specific timing window proposed for the works.

Timing Fish Sensitivity + & = Risk Crossing Methods Proposed

The derived risk rating takes into account the reduced risk to fish and their habitat by carrying out works using non-intrusive vehicle crossing methods and during periods when direct or indirect effect pathways to fish and their habitat are avoided or minimized. For example, a stream with a “high” sensitivity rating (based on species present or habitat available) is proposed to be crossed by a single span bridge and the pipeline installed using an isolation technique within the proposed instream work window under low flow conditions. The resulting risk to fish and their habitat is rated as “Moderate” because the magnitude and duration of sediment input are minimized, but not avoided.

4.0 RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS

4.1 Key Findings

In total, 220 potential waterbody crossings were investigated along the proposed TMX - Anchor Loop route, and 249 investigated along the Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route. Many of these were classified as No Visible Channels (NVCs) with no defined bed or banks. These do not represent fish habitat and are therefore not considered waterbodies or rated for fish sensitivity.

When NVCs are excluded, totals of 129 and 162 waterbodies were documented along the proposed TMX - Anchor Loop route and Existing Trans Mountain pipeline, respectively between KP/KL 310.1 and KP/KL 468. A summary of the key variables and recommendations for each investigated crossing is provided in the TMX - Anchor Loop Project Waterbody Crossing Table (Appendix A).

A total of 13 different fish species were captured along the TMX - Anchor Loop Project route, between KP/KL 310.1 and KP/KL 468 (Table 5). Only one species (bull trout) is considered “vulnerable” or “sensitive” (NatureServe 2005 and ASRD 2001, respectively).

4.2 Route Comparison and Evaluation

Key summary statistics for both the proposed TMX - Anchor Loop route and Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route are summarized in Table 6.

The proposed TMX - Anchor Loop route has 20% fewer waterbody crossings compared to the Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route. In addition, the Proposed Route crosses 27 fewer fish- bearing waterbodies (39 vs. 66), including 25% fewer very large fish-bearing watercourses (TMX Class 1), and over 50% fewer large fish-bearing watercourses (TMX Class 2).

The Proposed Route crosses approximately half as many “high” sensitivity watercourses (5 vs. 10) as the Existing Trans Mountain pipeline route. The Proposed Route also crosses fewer “moderate-high”, “moderate” and “low” sensitivity watercourses.

Bull trout, the only listed fish species, are present in watercourses on both routes. They were found at ten crossings along the Existing Route and at eight crossings along the Proposed Route.

4.3 Route Preference

The Proposed Route is preferred based on fish and fish habitat investigations, because it crosses fewer waterbodies, fewer large fish-bearing waterbodies, and fewer sensitive waterbodies when compared to a loop following the Existing Route.

4.4 Instream Work Windows

Instream work windows derived for each species are summarized in Table 7.

4.5 Supplementary Studies

Further field investigations were carried out in fall 2005, to supplement existing data on several larger rivers that had not yet been sampled for the TMX - Anchor Loop Project. These included: • Miette River • Fraser River • Snaring River • Yellowhead Creek • Clairvaux Creek • Derr Creek • Rockingham Creek • Grant Brook • Moose River • Cochrane Creek

Fall 2005 investigations of crossings within JNP where a winter work window is desired were designed to determine whether fall spawning and wintering occurs at the crossings and within the defined zone-of-influence. Investigations also collected detailed habitat mapping information.

No additional supplemental studies are recommended for the fish and fish habitat program.

Instream Work Windows Proposed for Each Species Sampled Along the TMX - Anchor Loop Project Route

J F M A M J J A S O N D Bull trout Rainbow trout Brook trout Burbot Mountain whitefish Northern pike Longnose sucker White sucker Brook stickleback* Pearl dace* Longnose dace* Lake chub* Spoonhead sculpin

Note: Shaded area denotes instream work window proposed.

The instream work windows proposed were derived from timing windows of species in Jasper National Park and are considered applicable to all areas along the TMX - Anchor Loop Project.

* Although a year-round work window is prescribed for these species, their value and role in the ecosystem is acknowledged; accordingly, fish salvage and monitoring is prescribed for the crossing of each watercourse where these species were found to occur.

Notes: 1 Distances along the "existing route" are referred to by KP. These are approximate and based upon a linear distance mapped along the Existing Route. KL's have been used for sites along the "proposed route" and are a linear distance derived from the adjacent existing route or surveyed stakes.

2 Water Body Type: Perennial = A watercourse that flows year round, vary in size, provide year round habitat for fish Seasonal = A watercouse that flows for part of the year only Intermittent = Usually a function of seasonality. Generally do not dry up completely, may retain water in isolated pools or connected by sub-surface flow. Can represent important migration routes or spawning or rearing habitat. Ephermeral = A watercourse present at different periods in time. Variance may spans years, with watercourse becoming vegetated during periods of no flow. NVC = No Visible Channel; a depression with no visible bed or banks and no direct/indirect fisheries potential. NCD = Non Classified Drainage; British Columbia designation for a watercourse with a continuous channel less than 100 m in length and no direct/indirect fisheries potential. Wetland = An area of swamp, marsh, or other similar habitat with distinct vegetation and where the water table is at, near or above the surface.
