NEW BUSINESS (a) Update on TNRD and New Afton Mine Director Elliott advised that she had met with Peter Milobar, Mayor of Kamloops to discuss the potential City of Kamloops boundary expansion which could include the New Afton Mine property and some properties belonging to Domtar. The Chief Administrative Officer indicated that the City of Kamloops is continuing to consult with affected parties and stakeholders. The City of Kamloops had agreed to continue providing the TNRD with the same requisition amount as the TNRD would have received prior to the proposed boundary expansion. Discussion commenced regarding the proposed City of Kamloops boundary expansion, the reasons for the expansion and the projected financial implications an expansion would have on the City of Kamloops and the TNRD. (b) Discretionary Grant Program - Implementation of a Carry Forward on Unused Balances Discussion commenced regarding changing the discretionary fund to allow an Electoral Area Director to carry forward their remaining discretionary funds to the following year so more than $10,000 can be spent in one year. Projects such as railway safety reports are financed through discretionary funds and are currently paid for over a number of years as they cost more than the annual discretionary fund budget allows. Discussion commenced regarding how the various Electoral Area Directors choose to spend the discretionary funds and if a carry-forward program would be beneficial. The Director of Finance responded to questions regarding requisition of taxes for the discretionary funds and explained how a carry-forward program would result in a requisition increase for taxpayers. Discussion commenced regarding increasing the annual discretionary fund to allow those directors to allow more flexibility for the use of discretionary funds. Moved by Director Gillis Seconded by Director Sternig That on recommendation of the Electoral Area Directors, the Electoral Area discretionary funds be increased by 25% (to $12,500) per electoral area. CARRIED Page 2 of 8 Minutes of the Electoral Area Committee Meeting dated March ... Page 4 of 64 Electoral Area Directors Meeting Thursday, March 13, 2014 (c) Regional Solid Waste Management Committee Meeting Discussion commenced regarding the February 19, 2014 Regional Solid Waste Management Committee meeting. Staff advised that the recommendations from the Regional Solid Waste Management Committee would be taken to the Board of Directors for consideration once more information has been gathered. 4. REPORTS (a) Invasive Plant Function Review The Manager of Environmental Health Services presented the Invasive Plant Function Review report dated March 13, 2014 and provided a presentation providing details on the following topics: - BC Weed Control Act and the responsibilities of land owners to conduct weed control - Weed control on TNRD-owned land - History of the TNRD Invasive Plant Program, detailing why the TNRD ceased coordinating the weed control efforts in the region - Role of the Southern Interior Weed Management Committee (SIWMC) in coordinating weed control in the region - Benefits of providing weed control through SIWMC The Manager of Environmental Health Services provided further details on why there is an issue with weed control in the region, such as each member of SIWMC has a limited budget to treat a large geographic area; Private property owners are treating weeds on their land but the bordering land may be outside of the SIWMC treatment area and therefore weeds continue to spread back on to the private property. The Manager of Environmental Health Services indicated that should TNRD decide to pursue weed control outside of SIWMC, there would be financial and service implications such as hiring additional staff; Should the TNRD decide to take on the role of a coordinating position once again, the TNRD would have to actively solicit funds from other agencies to provide the service to the other agencies, similar to SIWMC’s current activities. The Manager of Environmental Health Services highlighted that the proposed solution is to continue to participate in the weed control service provided by SIWMC and elevate concerns to public agencies, such as the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, the Ministry of Forests and CN Rail, to request that they increase funds and change treatment priority areas to assist private property owners. Discussion commenced regarding the current weed control service provided through SIWMC and what impacts the TNRD would have on the overall issue should the service be offered in-house. On question, the Manager of Page 3 of 8 Minutes of the Electoral Area Committee Meeting dated March ... Page 5 of 64 Electoral Area Directors Meeting Thursday, March 13, 2014 Environmental Health Services indicated that if TNRD were to conduct weed control on its own property and continue to provide the public education on weed control, at least one full-time employee would have to be hired, which would increase the cost to provide the service. Moved by Director Murray Seconded by Director Rice That on recommendation of the Electoral Area Directors, that the TNRD continue to contract with the SIWMC to: a. Coordinate weed control on TNRD owned/controlled lands, b. Carry out a public education program pertaining to invasive plants, and c. Provide biological control on private and public lands. DEFEATED Moved by Director Gillis Seconded by Director Elliott That on recommendation of the Electoral Area Directors, the TNRD continue to contract Purity Feed Co. Ltd to administer the equipment loan- out program. CARRIED Unanimously Moved by Director Gillis Seconded by Director Elliott That on recommendation of the Electoral Area Directors the TNRD continue to administer the landowner rebate programs internally. CARRIED Unanimously Moved by Director Gillis Seconded by Director Sternig That on recommendation of the Electoral Area Directors, upon receiving public complaint the TNRD Board of Directors, at their discretion, elevate concerns about weed control on crown land to the appropriate Ministry by way of letter or UBCM/SILGA resolution.

  • 22-A 2012 Social Baseline Report
    APPENDIX 22-A 2012 SOCIAL BASELINE REPORT TM Seabridge Gold Inc. KSM PROJECT 2012 Social Baseline Report Rescan™ Environmental Services Ltd. Rescan Building, Sixth Floor - 1111 West Hastings Street Vancouver, BC Canada V6E 2J3 January 2013 Tel: (604) 689-9460 Fax: (604) 687-4277 Executive Summary Seabridge Gold Inc. is proposing to develop the KSM Project (the Project), a gold, copper, silver, and molybdenum mine located in northwestern British Columbia. The proposed Project is approximately 950 km northwest of Vancouver and 65 km northwest of Stewart, within 30 km of the British Columbia–Alaska border (Figure 1.2-1). The estimated initial capital cost of the Project is US$5.3 billion. The Project is split between two geographical areas: the Mine Site and Processing and Tailing Management Area (PTMA), connected by twin 23-km tunnels (Mitchell-Treaty Twinned Tunnels; Figure 1.2-2). The Mine Site will be located south of the closed Eskay Creek Mine, within the Mitchell Creek, McTagg Creek, and Sulphurets Creek valleys. Sulphurets Creek is a main tributary of the Unuk River, which flows to the Pacific Ocean. The PTMA will be located in the upper tributaries of Teigen and Treaty creeks. Both creeks are tributaries of the Bell-Irving River, which flows into the Nass River and Pacific Ocean. The PTMA is located about 19 km southwest of Bell II on Highway 37. This social baseline report presents a comprehensive overview of the past and present social environment and context of the proposed Project, including patterns, trends, and changes over time. It outlines relevant social factors for which data on communities in the Project area are available, such as society and governance; population and demographics; education, skills and training (level of achievement, elementary, secondary, post-secondary, and adult education); health and social services (facilities, services, trends, and issues); recreation; protection services (crime index, police, fire, and ambulance); and infrastructure (utilities, communications, transportation, and housing).
