  • Aviation Occurrence Report Collision with Snowbank Truro Flying Club Cessna Aircraft Company C152 C-GREJ Debert, Nova Scotia 17 December 1994
    AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT COLLISION WITH SNOWBANK TRURO FLYING CLUB CESSNA AIRCRAFT COMPANY C152 C-GREJ DEBERT, NOVA SCOTIA 17 DECEMBER 1994 REPORT NUMBER A94A0242 MANDATE OF THE TSB The Canadian Transportation Accident Investigation and Safety Board Act provides the legal framework governing the TSB's activities. Basically, the TSB has a mandate to advance safety in the marine, pipeline, rail, and aviation modes of transportation by: ! conducting independent investigations and, if necessary, public inquiries into transportation occurrences in order to make findings as to their causes and contributing factors; ! reporting publicly on its investigations and public inquiries and on the related findings; ! identifying safety deficiencies as evidenced by transportation occurrences; ! making recommendations designed to eliminate or reduce any such safety deficiencies; and ! conducting special studies and special investigations on transportation safety matters. It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. However, the Board must not refrain from fully reporting on the causes and contributing factors merely because fault or liability might be inferred from the Board's findings. INDEPENDENCE To enable the public to have confidence in the transportation accident investigation process, it is essential that the investigating agency be, and be seen to be, independent and free from any conflicts of interest when it investigates accidents, identifies safety deficiencies, and makes safety recommendations. Independence is a key feature of the TSB. The Board reports to Parliament through the President of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada and is separate from other government agencies and departments. Its independence enables it to be fully objective in arriving at its conclusions and recommendations.

Canada’s greatest contribution in that war was arguably the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP). But really it was just one of three efforts; the others being the build up of the Royal Canadian Navy to the third largest in the world and the fielding of a Canadian Army in Western Europe and Italy. Canada’s war effort was therefore a triad of Canadian military power that greatly contributed to an Allied victory in World War II. Canadians often underrate that contribution. But it was a great sacrifice of national treasure in the cost of lives and money that was disproportionate to our population, geography, and economy at the time.

SHEA, M.Sc. > Deputy Minister Director Mineral Resources and Geological Services i Halifax, Nova Scotia 1972 I I PREFACE The Nova Scotia Department of Mines initiated in 1964 an extensive I programme to evaluate the groundwater resources of the Province of Nova Scotia. This report on the hydrogeology of the Truro area forms part of this broader pro- vincial programme. The field work for this study c om m e n c e d during the summer of 1965 when the Fraser Brook watershed was selected as the first representative basin for the study under the International Hydrological Decade programme in Nova Scotia. Detailed test drilling and mapping was carried out during the summer of 1967. The material for this report forms part of an M.Sc. thesis by Mr. T.W. Hennigar entitled Hydrogeology of the Salmon River and Adjacent Watersheds, Colchester County, Nova Scotia. The funding for this comprehensive project was a joint undertaking between the Canadian Department of Regional Economic Expansion (ARDA project No. 22042) and the Province of Nova Scotia. Use of the Dalhousie University's IBM/360-50 model computer was secured through the co-operation of the Department of Geology and was used in analysing some of the data contained in this report.

SIR,—I beg to submit a paper, "Report upon Iron Ores of Nova Scotia, " prepared in accordance with a Letter of Instructions received from you under date of 26th of May, 1906, and subsequent correspondence. This letter is as follows:— "OTTAWA, 26th May, 1906. DEAR SIR,—You are hereby instructed to make as complete investiga- tions as possible of all important iron ore deposits so far discovered in Nova Scotia. It is desirable that deposits which are favorably located as regards transportation be taken first. The information desired is to be of such a character as will aid the de- velopment of the iron industry in Canada. Geological features are to be considered only in so far as they may be necessary for a comprehension of the nature of the ore deposits. It may be advisable at some future date to make magnetic surveys of the more important magnetite deposits and for this purpose it will be necessary that in your report you point out deposits which should be examined by the magnetometric method, stating whether the ore field is fairly level or com- prises a difficult terrain.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. We compared the impact of surface broadcasted N-Viro biosolids and inorganic fertilizer (16.5% Ammonium sulphate, 34.5% Diammonium phosphate, 4.5% Potash, and 44.5% s and/or clay filler) applications on soil properties and nutrients, leaf nutrient concentration, and the fruit yield of lowbush blueberry under irrigated and nonirrigated conditions during 2008-2009 at Debert, NS, Canada. Application rates of N-Viro biosolids were more than double of inorganic fertilizer applied at a recommended N rate of 32 kg ha−1. The experimental treatments NI: N-Viro with irrigation, FI: inorganic fertilizer with irrigation, N: N-Viro without irrigation, and F: inorganic fertilizer without irrigation (control) were replicated four times under a randomized complete block design.
