Forest Health Conditions in Ontario, 2011 Dedication We are proud to dedicate this report to the memory of our friend, colleague, and mentor, Dr. Peter de Groot, 1954-2010. Peter was a long-time supporter of forest health, forest entomology, and forest management in Ontario and Canada. A world class research scientist, Peter made significant contributions to forest entomology. This included over 70 research papers, seven books, 12 book chapters, several publications from conferences and workshops, and many government reports and publications. As an adjunct professor at University of Toronto and Lakehead University, Peter provided guidance and valuable direction to Masters and Ph.D. students. Peter was a regular presenter at Ontario’s Annual Forest Health Review, imparting his scientific knowledge and expertise, and sharing his latest research results. He also provided invaluable advice to the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (OMNR) in the design and implementation of the forest health monitoring program. Over the last few years Peter helped mediate the transition from a CFS-led field program to an OMNR-led field program. After starting his career with the OMNR as a field technician in 1974, Peter graduated with his Forest Technician Diploma from Sault College in 1975. He was hired that same year as a research technician by the CFS. He went on to earn his Honours B.Sc. in Forestry from Lakehead University in 1981 and then his Ph.D. from Simon Fraser University in 1991. Eventually rising to the level of senior scientist, Peter was happiest when his boots were dirty. Adept in the lab or writing in his office, it was field work that invigorated him. He taught us the importance of observing the biological system in which we are working. In this way we could better design our research and understand the results. Peter’s strength was in growing people. He was a mentor to everyone from summer students to friends, peers, and senior managers. His scientific excellence, integrity, attention to detail, and humour were among his many assets that earned him our respect, admiration, and friendship. Peter is also remembered for his devotion to his family: his loving wife Elizabeth (Liz) Deakin-de Groot, children Cathleen and Jonathan, and grandchildren Adalia, Deiderich, and Quinn. We thank them for letting us share in Peter’s life.

Alternatively, the Center requests that the USFWS define and list distinct population segments of lake sturgeon in the U.S. as threatened or endangered. Lake sturgeon populations in Minnesota, Lake Superior, Missouri River, Ohio River, Arkansas-White River and lower Mississippi River may warrant endangered status. Lake sturgeon populations in Lake Michigan and the upper Mississippi River basin may warrant threatened status. Lake sturgeon in the central and eastern Great Lakes (Lake Huron, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River basin) seem to be part of a larger population that is more widespread.

  • Appendix F Environmental Features
    Appendix F Environmental Features YELLOW FALLS HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT APPENDIX F Note Prior to the release of the Draft EA, the Project was referred to as the Island Falls Hydroelectric Project. Following release of a draft environmental assessment report for review by First Nations, agencies, and members of the public, numerous comments were received. As a direct result of agency and public consultation, YFP made a decision to relocate the Project two kilometres upstream of Island Falls to Yellow Falls. Accordingly, the Project name has changed to the “Yellow Falls Hydroelectric Project” and the Project nameplate capacity has changed from 20 MW to 16 MW. The following Environmental Features report details existing natural and socioeconomic conditions and was prepared for the Island Falls location. Project relocation has not appreciably altered descriptions of existing natural and socioeconomic conditions. The Yellow Falls Project location has been provided on figures to indicate how the revised location corresponds with existing natural and socioeconomic environmental features.
