The statistical tablea give the total mineral output of the Province to dste, and show in considerable detail the actual mineral production of the pest year, w baaed on amelter or mill returns; also, B summsry of the production of each of the last four years, thus illustrating by comparison the progress made in productive mining during this period. To facilitate comparison with information previously given, I ban retained, aa closely as was possible, the general form already established for such tables and for the Report.

L7 MINERALPRODUCTION OF BRITISWCOLUMBIA. -:o:- METHOD OF COMPUTINQ PRODUCTION. In assembling the output for the lode mines in the following tables, the established custom of tbie Bureau baa been adhered to, viz. : The output of e mine for the yaw is considered that mxmunt of ore for which the amelter or mill returns have been received during the year. Tbia system doea not gire the ~xeet amount mined during the gear but rather the amounts credited to the mine on the company’s books during such year. For ore abipped in Deeember the smelter returns are not likely ta ba rw&wd until February in the ww year, or later, and have, consequently, to be carried over to the credit of such new year. This plan, however, will be found very approximate for each year, and ultimately correct, Bs or0 not credit.4 to one gear is credited in the next. In the Lode Mines tables, the amount of thr? shipments baa been obtained from c&&d returns received from the vations mines, aa provided for in the “Inapaction of Mdetalliferous Mines Act, 1897.” In calculating the values of the product+ the average price for the ye&r in the NW York Metal Market has been used &s a basis. For silver 96 per.oent., and for lead 90 per cwt., of such market price has been taken. Treatment and other charges have not been deduoti.

    BRITISH COLUMBIA MINISTRY OF WATER, LAND AND AIR PROTECTION - 2002 Environmental Indicator: Fish in British Columbia Primary Indicator: Conservation status of Steelhead Trout stocks rated as healthy, of conservation concern, and of extreme conservation concern. Selection of the Indicator: The conservation status of Steelhead Trout stocks is a state or condition indicator. It provides a direct measure of the condition of British Columbia’s Steelhead stocks. Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are highly valued by recreational anglers and play a locally important role in First Nations ceremonial, social and food fisheries. Because Steelhead Trout use both freshwater and marine ecosystems at different periods in their life cycle, it is difficult to separate effects of freshwater and marine habitat quality and freshwater and marine harvest mortality. Recent delcines, however, in southern stocks have been attributed to environmental change, rather than over-fishing because many of these stocks are not significantly harvested by sport or commercial fisheries. With respect to conseration risk, if a stock is over fished, it is designated as being of ‘conservation concern’. The term ‘extreme conservation concern’ is applied to stock if there is a probablity that the stock could be extirpated. Data and Sources: Table 1.

  • Quarterly Report on Short-Term Water Approvals and Use
    Quarterly Report on Short-Term Water Approvals and Use April to June 2011 About the BC Oil and Gas Commission The BC Oil and Gas Commission is an independent, single-window regulatory agency with responsibilities for overseeing oil and gas operations in British Columbia, including exploration, development, pipeline transportation and reclamation. The Commission’s core roles include reviewing and assessing applications for industry activity, consulting with First Nations, ensuring industry complies with provincial legislation and cooperating with partner agencies. The public interest is protected through the objectives of ensuring public safety, protecting the environment, conserving petroleum resources and ensuring equitable participation in production. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Page 2 Processes and Requirements Page 3 Results Page 4 Summary Page 7 Appendix A Page 8 Appendix B Page 9 Appendix C Page 12 1 BC Oil and Gas Commission Quarterly Report on Short-Term Water Approvals and Use Introduction The Oil and Gas Activities Act (OGAA) provides authority to the BC Oil and Gas Commission (Commission) to issue short-term water use approvals under Section 8 of the Water Act to manage short-term water use by the oil and gas industry. Approvals under Section 8 of the Water Act authorize the diversion and use of water for a term not exceeding 12 months. This report details the Commission’s responsibilities and authorities under Section 8 of the Water Act; it does not include the diversion and use of water approved by other agencies (such as the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, which has responsibility for water licensing) or for purposes other than oil and gas activities.

  • Ungulate Winter Range Species Accounts Specific to the Peace River
    UNGULATE WINTER RANGE SPECIES ACCOUNTS SPECIFIC TO THE PEACE RIVER REGION 2003 Prepared By: Alicia D. Goddard Woods Environmental Consulting SS#2 Site 13 Comp 17 Fort St. John, BC V1J 4M7 For: Ministry Water, Land and Air Protection Ecosystem Section Rm. 400-10003-110 Avenue Fort St. John, BC V1J 6M7 March 2003 Ungulate Winter Range in the Peace Region 2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this project was to collect and describe winter habitat use for ungulates within the Peace region. Literature and annecdotal information was collected from local biologists and species experts in an attempt to develop stand-alone species accounts for ungulates in the Peace region. In gathering habitat use information, it was determined that the primary source of information pertaining to habitat use is derived from provincial species standards. For many species, these provincial species accounts do not apply to animals and their habitat use within the Peace region. This report outlines how habitat use is different from provincial standards, and describes habitat use specific to the Peace region. Very little reliable, accurate scientific data is available for ungulate winter habitat use in the Peace region. Although numerous projects are currently proceeding, more research projects need to be initiated to produce specific, reliable scienctific data pertaining to winter habitat use by ungulates in the Peace region.

It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This thesis examines the emotionally charged relationship between First Nation representatives and the licensee and government stewards of forest development. It provides an overview of the Mackenzie Forest District, its communities, its First Nations, and its stewards. It then discusses the institutional arrangements that constitute the planning and decision-making milieu. Next it provides an historical and a local overview of issues and events that concern First Nation representatives. Turning to principles of distributive justice (elements of political theory that prescribe how resources, opportunity, and power should be distributed among persons) it explains Ronald Dworkin's (1978 & 1985) principle of equal concern and respect, and Joseph Raz's (1986) principle of autonomy.

The FWCP Streams Action Plan (FWCP 2014) identifies two over-arching strategic objectives for the conservation and enhancement of Arctic Grayling and other priority fish species in the upper Peace Basin: 1. Maintain or improve the conservation status of Arctic Grayling populations. 2. Maintain or improve the integrity and productivity of Arctic Grayling habitats. This study was initiated by FWCP to evaluate the existing knowledge base relative to these strategic objectives, and fulfill objective 1b-1 of the Streams Action Plan: Review existing information (including provincial management plan), summarize status and trends of Arctic Graying and its habitats, undertake actions that are within the FWCP scope and lead directly to the development of conservation and enhancement actions, and develop a cost- effective monitoring program to assess status and trends.
