Water also provides important habitat for countless life forms. The past century has seen the construction of infrastructure, such as dams, reservoirs, bridges and treatment facilities, to better manage these water resources. The design and operation of this infrastructure requires knowledge of the availability, variability and distribution of the water resource. This information is also required for public safety, allocation, water quality assessment and inventory purposes. The collection of hydrometric data is critical to the understanding of the availability, variability and distribution of the water resource, and these data provide the basis for responsible decision making on the management of this resource. Historic hydrometric data provide the basis for understanding the potential extent and limitation of the resource, and support such activities as policy development, water rights licensing, ecosystem protection, infrastructure design and scientific study. Current and real-time hydrometric data support flood and drought forecasting, and ongoing decision-making regarding the management, use and sharing of the water resource. British Columbia's Hydrometric Monitoring Program is part of a Canada-wide program that provides accurate, timely and standardized data and information on the current and historic availability of surface water. The parties recognize the value of cooperative water monitoring activities involving federal and provincial / territorial agencies, for reasons including operational and cost efficiencies. BACKGROUND In 1975, the federal Minister of Environment and the provincial Minister of Lands, Forests and Water Resources signed a Memorandum of Agreement for Water Quantity Surveys thus harmonizing the collection, processing, publication and distribution of hydrometric data in British Columbia. Similar agreements were signed by Canada and all of the provinces and the Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada on behalf of the Northwest Territories and the Yukon. These agreements have provided the basis for the development of a standardized national archive of data and information on the availability and variability of surface water within Canada. The evolution of needs since 1975 has created the need for the renewal of all of the 1975 agreements for water quantity surveys. This new Agreement recognizes British Columbia's responsibility for water in the province, and provides the structure and flexibility to ensure that British Columbia has access to an effective and efficient hydrometric monitoring service that supports public health and safety, economic development and the sustainability of our natural environment. New agreements have been signed by Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. This Agreement is one of many similar bilateral agreements on hydrometric monitoring in Canada that, taken together, establish a national framework for hydrometric monitoring. This framework involves participation in the National Administrators' Table, which shall assist the parties in providing direction to the Hydrometric Monitoring Program and in coordinating a consensus-based standardized national program of hydrometric monitoring. 2 DEFINITIONS Administrator or Administrators means the person, or collectively the persons, named as an administrator by each of the Parties under Section 4.1 of this Agreement. Agreement means this Canada-BC Agreement on Hydrometric Monitoring, Asset means any item owned by a Party that is used to perform or support Hydrometric Monitoring Program activities, including, but not limited to, structures, vehicles, scientific instruments, computer hardware, and computer software. Fiscal Year means the twelve month period from April 1 until March 31 of the following year. Hydrometric means of or related to the measurement of the velocity, discharge, volume and other physical parameters of surface waters and surface water bodies. Monitoring Site means any location where Hydrometric surveys are conducted or Hydrometric data is collected. National Standards means performance, procedural and instrumentation standards, as approved by the National Administrators Table in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Program means the Hydrometric Monitoring Program described in this Agreement. Third Party means agency, organization, individual, corporation or contractor deemed by a Party to this Agreement to have an interest or be a stakeholder in Hydrometric monitoring. I. OBJECTIVES The objectives of this Agreement are to: Support informed decision-making on water-related issues which affect the security of life, property and the environment, support economic activity and provide for sustainable utilization of the water resources in British Columbia; 1.2 Establish a framework for an effective and efficient Hydrometric Monitoring Program; and, 1.3 Set out the means by which the parties will determine their respective contributions to the Hydrometric Monitoring Program. 2. SCOPE The Hydrometric Monitoring Program (the Program), as described in Appendix G, encompasses the following activities associated with Hydrometric operations targeted at the collection, production and distribution of data and information: 2.1 Monitoring, including, but not limited to, the collection of level, velocity, discharge, volume and physical survey data from surface waters and the processing of these data into information products; 3 2.2 Archive management, including, but not limited to, the ongoing systematized storage and inventory of the data and information products produced by the Program; 2.3 Data and information services, including, but not limited to, the exchange and delivery of monitoring data and information products between the Parties; 2.4 Standards and quality assurance management including, but not limited to, the development, implementation and maintenance of National Standards for the activities of the Program and the establishment and implementation of methods to ensure that those National Standards are being met in the Program; 2.5 Network planning and evaluation, including, but not limited to, the design and ongoing assessment of the network of Monitoring Sites in British Columbia to ensure that the needs and mandates of the Parties are met; 2.6 Life cycle management of Assets, including, but not limited to, the testing, evaluation, purchase, implementation, maintenance and replacement of instrumentation, equipment, and computer software and systems, and the design, purchase, construction, installation, maintenance, replacement and decommissioning of physical structures, as described in Schedule A Section 3.2, used to perform the activities of the Program; 2.7 Research and development, including, but not limited to, the investigation, research and development of new or modified National Standards, methods, processes, tools, and data and information products produced by the Program; and, 2.8 Program management, including, but not limited to, the establishment of direction for the activities of the Program, determining protocols for the

Marine aquaculture, in particular salmon farming, has been labeled one of the most controversial industries in BC and various groups with differing opinions have created a wide-spread media debate known as the “aquaculture controversy”. Industry, government, and (E)NGO’s are often the most visible players; First Nations, especially those without aquaculture operations directly in their territories, are often excluded or underrepresented in the conversation.

V6T 1Z4 Prepared for Nechako Enhancement Society c/o Suite 850-899 West Hasting Street Vancouver B.C. V6C 2W2 August 23, 2007 Executive Summary The Nechako Enhancement Society (NES), a joint partnership of Alcan Inc. and the Province of British Columbia, is considering building a Cold Water Release Facility (CWRF) at Kenney Dam on the Nechako Reservoir. The CWRF would draw cold deep water from the reservoir to reduce the temperature of the Nechako River for fish migration. The NES has requested an assessment of the ability of the CWRF to deliver up to 170 m3/s of 10 ºC water between July 20 and August 20 (a total of 0.47 km3). We have examined the physical limnology of the two basins adjacent to Kenney Dam (Knewstubb and Natalkuz lakes). In particular, we have: • Collected temperature profiles in the summer of 2005, 2006 and 2007; these were compared with data from 1990 (Limnotek) and 1994 (Triton).

  • 20. Aboriginal Rights and Interests Effects
    20. ASSESSMENT OF ABORIGINAL AND TREATY RIGHTS AND RELATED INTERESTS 20.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter assesses potential adverse effects on Aboriginal and Treaty rights and related interests which may arise from the Project during construction, operations, decommissioning/reclamation, and post-closure. Underground mining activities have the potential to adversely affect Aboriginal and Treaty rights by interfering with Aboriginal groups’ ability to engage in practices, customs, and traditions that are integral to their distinctive cultures, and/or by interfering with the exercise of rights expressly recognized in a treaty. Interference with Aboriginal and Treaty rights is generally indirect, resulting from changes to environmental conditions that are necessary for the continued exercise of Aboriginal and Treaty rights. The assessment is based on information derived from the Proponent’s engagement with potentially- affected Aboriginal groups, environmental assessments carried out elsewhere in the Application/EIS, and the review of secondary data. Wherever possible, the assessment addresses potential effects on Aboriginal and treaty rights and related interests as understood from the perspective of the Aboriginal groups in question. Baseline reports informing this assessment are appended to the Application/EIS and include: Ethnographic Overview and Traditional Knowledge and Use Desk-Based Research Report (Appendix 17-A) and Saulteau First Nations Knowledge and Use Study for HD Mining Murray River Coal Project (Appendix 17-B). 20.2 REGULATORY AND POLICY FRAMEWORK The Crown has a legal duty to consult with and, where appropriate, accommodate Aboriginal interests when it contemplates a conduct that might adversely impact the potential or established Aboriginal or Treaty right. The Crown delegated procedural aspects of this duty, with respect to the Project, to the Proponent through the Section 11 Order and EIS Guidelines.
