All of their time, effort, commitment and participation is much appreciated and was fundamental to the success of the traditional marine resource use studies for the proposed Trans Mountain Expansion Project. 7894/December 2013 REP-NEB-TERA-00036 Page i Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC Volume 8B, Marine Transportation Technical Reports Trans Mountain Expansion Project Traditional Marine Resource Use – Marine Transportation Technical Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC (Trans Mountain) is a Canadian corporation with its head office located in Calgary, Alberta. Trans Mountain is a general partner of Trans Mountain Pipeline L.P., which is operated by Kinder Morgan Canada Inc., and is fully owned by Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. Trans Mountain is the holder of the National Energy Board (NEB) certificates for the Trans Mountain pipeline system (TMPL system). The TMPL system commenced operations 60 years ago and now transports a range of crude oil and petroleum products from Western Canada to locations in central and southwestern British Columbia (BC), Washington State and offshore. The TMPL system currently supplies much of the crude oil and refined products used in BC. The TMPL system is operated and maintained by staff located at Trans Mountain’s regional and local offices in Alberta (Edmonton, Edson and Jasper) and BC (Clearwater, Kamloops, Hope, Abbotsford and Burnaby). The TMPL system has an operating capacity of approximately 47,690 m3/d (300,000 bbl/d) using 23 active pump stations and 40 petroleum storage tanks. The expansion will increase the capacity to 141,500 m3/d (890,000 bbl/d). The proposed expansion will comprise the following. • Pipeline segments that complete a twinning (or “looping”) of the pipeline in Alberta and BC with about 987 km of new buried pipeline. • New and modified facilities, including pump stations and tanks. • Three new berths at the Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby, BC, each capable of handling Aframax class vessels. The expansion has been developed in response to requests for service from Western Canadian oil producers and West Coast refiners for increased pipeline capacity in support of growing oil production and access to growing West Coast and offshore markets. NEB decision RH-001-2012 reinforces market support for the expansion and provides Trans Mountain the necessary economic conditions to proceed with design, consultation, and regulatory applications. Application is being made pursuant to Section 52 of the National Energy Board Act (NEB Act) for the proposed Trans Mountain Expansion Project (referred to as “TMEP” or “the Project”). The NEB will undertake a detailed review and hold a Public Hearing to determine if it is in the public interest to recommend a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for construction and operation of the Project. Subject to the outcome of the NEB Hearing process, Trans Mountain plans to begin construction in 2016 and go into service in 2017. TERA Environmental Consultants (TERA) was commissioned to prepare the following Traditional Marine Resource Use – Marine Transportation Technical Report. This report provides the results of the desktop study, literature review and traditional marine resource use studies (TMRU studies) conducted for the Project, as well as the results of the Aboriginal engagement for the Project to date. TMRU studies were initiated for the Project in 2012 and are ongoing. Esquimalt Nation has elected to conduct a TERA-facilitated TMRU study. This TMRU study was conducted in November 2013. Cowichan Tribes, Halalt First Nation, Hwlitsum First Nation, Lyackson First Nation, Pacheedaht First Nation, Penelakut First Nation, Semiahmoo First Nation and Stz’uminus First Nation have elected to conduct independent, community-led TMRU studies. The progress of each participating community’s TMRU study at the time of application filing is described in Section 3.0. Additional TMRU study work with participating Aboriginal communities is scheduled for completion prior to construction of the Project. Information gathered during ongoing TMRU studies will be considered for incorporation into Project planning under the guidance of existing marine transport regulations. The results of these ongoing engagement efforts will be provided to the NEB. 7894/December 2013 REP-NEB-TERA-00036 Page ii Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC Volume 8B, Marine Transportation Technical Reports Trans Mountain Expansion Project Traditional Marine Resource Use – Marine Transportation Technical Report The results of the desktop study, literature review, the TMRU study and the preliminary interests identified to date indicate that Aboriginal communities have historically used and presently use the marine Regional Study Area (RSA) to maintain a traditional lifestyle and continue to use marine resources throughout the Marine RSA for a variety of purposes including fish, shellfish, mammal and bird harvesting, aquatic plant gathering, and spiritual/cultural pursuits as well as through the use of navigable waters within the Marine RSA to access subsistence resources, neighbouring communities and coastal settlements. The potential residual effects on traditional marine resource use are identified, discussed and evaluated for significance in Section 4.3.10 of Volume 8A of this application, which should be read in conjunction with this technical report. 7894/December 2013 REP-NEB-TERA-00036 Page iii Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC Volume 8B, Marine Transportation Technical Reports Trans Mountain Expansion Project Traditional Marine Resource Use – Marine Transportation Technical Report TABLE OF CONTENTS Page EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ..............................................................................................................................

  • The Kulleet Bay Mass Grave by Colleen Parsley a THESIS
    The Kulleet Bay Mass Grave by Colleen Parsley A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) June 2018 © Colleen Parsley, 2018 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, a thesis/dissertation entitled: The Kulleet Bay Mass Grave submitted by Colleen Parsley in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology Examining Committee: Darlene Weston Supervisor Bruce Granville Miller Supervisory Committee Member n/a Supervisory Committee Member David Pokotylo Additional Examiner Abstract This bioarchaeological study was undertaken in partnership with Stz’uminus First Nation and draws on forensic and osteological methodologies for the analysis of 153,386 cremated human bones found buried together in a mass grave. Archaeological context is integrated with the bioarchaeological results to understand the various dimensions of a mass cremation grave discovered during 2004 sewer line excavations in the traditional ancient Stz’uminus village of Kulleet Bay. Analyses of the thermally altered skeletal bone indicate fleshed bodies were intensely cremated with sustained temperatures. Vertical gradation of temperature altered matrices were observed in the stratigraphic profile. Archaeological and osteological evidence point to an in situ cremation event of fleshed corpses who suffered a mass death, radiocarbon dated to 2407 cal BP. Skeletal pathologies consistent with poor health and also potentially related to disease processes are perhaps indirect evidence of the agent of mass death. No evidence of conflict or natural environmental disaster is present to support alternative causes.

  • The Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy (CSCS) Is a Technical Document Produced by the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership Working Group
    Note to Reader: The Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy (CSCS) is a technical document produced by the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership working group. The CSCS is not a policy statement of CRD Regional Parks, and strategy approval or commitment to implement any of the proposed strategies and actions is not implied by its distribution. For CRD Regional Parks, the intent of the CSCS is to inform decision-making, such as the development of the Island View Beach Regional Park Management Plan, preparation of workplans, and other park management processes. Cordova Shore CONSERVATION STRATEGY August 2010 Prepared for CRD Regional Parks, Tsawout First Nation, and Canadian Wildlife Service Prepared by: Nick Page Raincoast Applied Ecology Vancouver, BC Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy 1 SUMMARY The purpose of the Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy is to improve the management of ecosystems, plant, fish, and wildlife species, and human activities in the Cordova Shore through collaborative conservation actions. This includes actions to restore ecological processes, recover species at risk, reduce recreation impacts, improve access to cultural resources, and celebrate the shore’s unique character. This strategy was developed through the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership. The partnership is an informal, collaborative initiative between Capital Regional District (CRD) Regional Parks, Tsawout First Nation, and the District of Central Saanich. It is supported by the Canadian Wildlife Service. Five main ecosystems make up the Cordova Shore: (1) marine ecosystems: beach, intertidal and shallow subtidal areas; (2) coastal wetland ecosystems: salt, brackish, and freshwater wetlands; (3) coastal sand ecosystems: sparsely‐vegetated sand spit (T̸IX̱EṈ) and stable and semi‐stable dunes; (4) rock outcrop ecosystems: sparsely‐vegetated rock and forested or shrub‐dominated; and (5) bluff ecosystems: unstable and forested sand bluffs.

The Islands Trust Council has been advocating to senior governments about oil spill issues since 1979 and has many concerns related to oil spill preparedness and response. Even a small oil spill within the Islands Trust Area could have devastating impacts on the abundant biodiversity of the region and could significantly affect species already at risk, as well harm the livability and economic well-being of local communities. The Islands Trust Policy Statement, a statutory document founded in extensive community consultation and approved in 1994 by the then Minister of Municipal Affairs, encourages provincial and federal agencies to ensure safe shipment of materials hazardous to the environment.

Founded in 1670, the HBC was given exclusive rights to trade in Northern North America. Over the next century and a half, the Company expanded from its Hudson Bay beginnings, pushing west to the Pacific Ocean and including the coast from what is now British Columbia as far south as Northern California. However, in 1843, as a result of a dispute with the Americans, the HBC moved its main southwestern headquarters from Fort Vancouver on the Columbia River to Fort Victoria on Vancouver Island. In 1849 Vancouver Island became a colony of Great Britain and remained a separate colony until joined with British Columbia, on the mainland, to form one colony in 1866.
