Project Conservator: Prof. Elisabeth Robertson, Ph.D. Proponent Contact: Alexander Murray (Department of Transportation, GNWT) PO Box 1320, Yellowknife, NT X1A 2L9 – Ph: 867-688-1144, Email: [email protected] On behalf of the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT), Department of Transportation (DOT), Stantec Consulting Ltd. (Stantec) conducted an Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA) for the proposed Eastern Segment of the Highway Corridor Granular Supply Sources along Highways 3, 5 and 6 (the Project). The proposed Project will involve the development of 18 borrow sources and related facilities (i.e., along Highways 3, 5 and 6 (Figure 1). In early 2016, a desktop Archaeological Overview Assessment (AOA) was completed for the initial comprehensive program of proposed GNWT DOT borrow sources, associated with highways 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7. The AOA report was submitted to the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (PWNHC), with recommendations for the completion of a targeted AIA for all areas of high archaeological site potential. The PWNHC agreed with this recommendation, as communicated by letter on April 5, 2016. The program was subsequently divided into two portions – one which encompassed the portions west of Fort Providence (primarily along Highways 1 and 7) and one which encompassed the portions to the east, along Highways 3, 5 and 6, in the Great Slave Lake area. An application for a Class 2 archaeological research permit to conduct an AIA for the eastern portion was prepared and submitted to the PWNHC on March 18, 2016. The proposed program was subsequently approved through the issuance of Northwest Territories Class 2 Archaeologist Permit # 16-003 (June 9, 2016). The western portion of the program was assessed under Permit # 16-004, directed by Ty Heffner. As discussed in the permit application, an interim report detailing preliminary results and recommendations is being provided to facilitate a proposed winter 2016/2017 construction start for the Project.

Eastern Segment Highway Corridor Granular Supply Sources, Eastern Segment, Highways 3, 5 and 6 Interim Report #1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The AIA focused on 18 borrow sources, intended to provide materials for maintenance of highways 3, 5 and 6. Many of the proposed borrow sources are extensions on existing pits or other existing disturbances. Because of this, the need for new access construction is minimal, with many locations utilizing existing access while others will require modification of an existing winter road and/or cut line. One location (Highway 3, km 80.6) also includes a stockpile location adjacent to the highway. Development of the borrow sources will result in vegetation removal, stripping, and excavation, resulting in deep and extensive impacts to these locations. In total, there are three borrow sources along Highway 3, eight along Highway 5, and seven along Highway 6 (see Table 1).

While within the traditional territories, the appropriate community was contacted and engaged (see Table 1). This engagement included the participation of wildlife monitors and/or community assistants during conduct of the field surveys, when participants were available. Preparation for the AIA began with the compilation of an Archaeological Overview Assessment (AOA) of available information sources including topographic maps, surficial geology information, the territorial archaeological site database, previous archaeological permit reports, aerial Page 3 of 66 Stantec Highway Corridor Granular Supply Sources. Eastern Segment. Highways 3. 5 and 6 Interim Report #1 photography. ethnographic and historic information. The assessment of archaeological potential was assigned through the evaluation of several criteria including: • the topography of an area (elevated. well-drained) • general proximity to water sources (streams, creeks, rivers. and lakes) • association with confluence areas (including lake inlets/outlets) • proximity to recorded archaeological. historical. and traditional features (including sites and trails) • any specific areas of traditional significance. Based on these parameters, the areas of archaeological potential were selected for each of the associated borrow sources. It was understood that these could be modified in the field, to refine and/or correct the desktop assessment. Each of the proposed borrow sources assessed in the AOA contained areas of high archaeological potential; these areas were mapped. The AOA was submitted to the PWHNC for review in early 2016. Based on PWNHC response (April 5, 2016), an AIA was required for high potential areas. As noted above, the program was then divided into two portions - one which encompassed the portions west of Fort Providence (primarily along Highways 1 and 7) and one which encompassed the portions to the east, along Highways 3, 5 and 6, in the Great Slave Lake area. The proposed program was subsequently approved through the issuance of Northwest Territories Class 2 Archaeologist Permit# 16-003 (June 9, 2016). The western portion of the program was assessed under Permit # 16-004, directed by Ty Heffner. The in-field assessments for the Project were conducted under the supervision of Matthew Moors, M.A. The crew worked through September and early October to complete the assessments (see Table 1) under snow-free and frost-free, late summer/early fall field conditions. Due to the proximity of the Project footprint to high grade highways, a single crew was assembled to conduct the field assessment. This crew consisted of two archaeologists with participation from wildlife monitors and/or aboriginal assistants drawn from the local communities associated with the various assessment areas (see Table 1). Each of the borrow sources was accessed via truck and pedestrian traverse. The archaeological potential of each granular supply source was refined in the field. Information available for the desktop assessment was sometimes lacking or not sufficiently detailed. Little previous archaeological research has been conducted in the area, resulting in a lack of previously recorded site locations.

Over the past year, the Department of Transportation engaged a broad base of stakeholders to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing our northern transportation system. These engagements helped identify the vision and strategic priorities for enhancing our transportation system to meet the future needs of residents, communities, businesses and industry. As we mark the 25th anniversary of the Department of Transportation, established in 1989, and reflect on the great accomplishments achieved to date, it is the perfect time to redefine the path forward over the next 25 years. This strategy, Connecting Us, presents a vision for the transportation system and the strategic long-term priorities that will guide future actions of the Department of Transportation. It also outlines a framework for measuring and reporting on our success into the future. Northerners are strong, resilient people and we must continue working together to strengthen connections, capture opportunities and embrace innovation. Doing so will improve and enhance our transportation infrastructure, services, programs and policies, which will, in turn, lead to a sustainable economy, vibrant communities and self-reliant people.

  • Northern Connections
    NORTHERN CONNECTIONS A Multi-Modal Transportation Blueprint for the North FEBRUARY 2008 Government of Yukon Photos and maps courtesy of: ALCAN RaiLink Inc. Government of British Columbia Government of Northwest Territories Government of Nunavut Government of Yukon Designed and printed in Canada’s North Copyright February 2008 ISBN: 1-55362-342-8 MESSAGE FROM MINISTERS It is our pleasure to present Northern Connections: A Multi-Modal Transportation Blueprint for the North, a pan-territorial perspective on the transportation needs of Northern Canada. This paper discusses a vision for the development of northern transportation infrastructure in the context of a current massive infrastructure decit. Research has proven that modern transportation infrastructure brings immense benets. The northern transportation system of the future must support economic development, connect northern communities to each other and to the south, and provide for enhanced sovereignty and security in Canada’s north. This document complements a comprehensive national transportation strategy – Looking to the Future: A Plan for Investing in Canada’s Transportation System – released under the auspices of the Council of the Federation in December 2005. The three territories support the details contained in Looking to the Future that call for a secure, long-term funding framework for transportation infrastructure that will benet all Canadians. Equally important, northern territories stress that this national strategy – and any subsequent funding mechanisms that follow – must account for unique northern needs and priorities, which would be largely overlooked using nation-wide criteria only. This paper is also consistent with A Northern Vision: A Stronger North and a Better Canada, the May 2007 release of a pan-territorial vision for the north.
