    September 7, 2018 Alanna Dixon Director, Economic & Corporate Initiatives Design, Coordination & Outreach Branch Technology, Innovation & Economic Development Division Ministry of Jobs, Trade and Technology By email: [email protected] Dear Ms. Dixon: Our municipal council recently became aware of a potential regulation change that may allow other communities to gain support for economic diversification, planning, and revitalization through the Island Coastal Economic Trust (ICET). We understand that Ministry staff have begun engaging with ICET to explore the inclusion of the CRD electoral areas of Juan de Fuca, Salt Spring Island, and the Southern Gulf Islands in the ICET service area. We are requesting that Bowen Island Municipality be considered a stakeholder in any discussion undertaken by your Ministry. As a rural island community, Bowen Island faces challenges for economic development, job creation, and infrastructure development that are similar to those of the Southern Gulf Islands. Attached is related correspondence that explains our situation more fully. As you will see, we have been actively attempting by a variety of means to gain recognition of Bowen Island’s rural status and to secure the funding support for infrastructure projects we require. I can be reached at 604-947-4255 or [email protected] . Sincerely, Mayor Murray Skeels Bowen Island Municipality Attachments (7) Letter from Acting Chair Susan Morrison, Islands Trust, to Premier John Horgan, “Designation of the Islands Trust Area for Rural Dividend Program and Island Coastal Economic Trust (ICET) Funding,” dated July 11, 2018. In reply: Letter from Assistant Deputy Minister Dave Peterson, FLNRORD, dated August 9, 2018.

The proposed moratorium would last until an ecosystem-based management plan is put in place that considers the current and future effects of climate change and the potential impact of the fisheries on predatory species, in particular Chinook salmon and the southern resident killer whales. The Islands Trust has written to all First Nation’s in the Trust Area requesting support by co-signing a letter to the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, Minster of Fisheries, Oceans, and the Canadian Coast Guard. Islands Trust Council is concerned with Pacific herring management issues since the Pacific herring are a keystone species in the food web of the Salish Sea and play a critical role in the functioning of the regions ecosystems. Currently, there is an annual removal of 20% of the Pacific herring population and this action may not support the needs of predator species, especially when populations are trying to recover.
