Part 4: Floodplain, Riparian, & Lakeshore Regulations The following additional definitions apply only to Part 4.1 of this Bylaw: DESIGNATED FLOOD means a flood as determined in this Bylaw based on the probability that it may occur in any given year of such magnitude as to equal a flood having a 200-year recurrence interval; OR based on a frequency analysis of historic flood records; OR by regional analysis where no adequate stream flow data is available. DESIGNATED FLOOD LEVEL means the observed or calculated elevation for the designated flood, which is used in the calculation of the flood construction level. FLOOD CONSTRUCTION LEVEL means the designated flood level plus 0.6 metres freeboard; OR where a designated flood level cannot be determined, a specified height above a natural boundary, used to establish the elevation of the underside of a floor system of any area used for habitation, business or storage of goods damageable by floodwaters or in the case of a manufactured home, the ground level or top of the concrete or asphalt pad upon which a manufactured home rests. FLOODPLAIN SETBACK means the required minimum horizontal distance from the natural boundary of a watercourse, lake, or other body of water to any fill or structural support required to elevate a floor system supporting habitable space or pad above the flood construction level, so as to maintain a floodway and allow for potential land erosion. STANDARD DYKE means a dyke built to minimum crest elevation equal to the Flood Construction Level and meeting standards of design and construction approved by the Ministry of Environment and maintained by an ongoing authority such as a local government body. 4.1 Floodplain Regulations 4.1.1 Pursuant to s. 524 of the Local Government Act, land lower in elevation than the flood construction level specified in s.4.1.4 and land within the floodplain setback specified in s.4.1.9 is designated as Floodplain. 4.1.2 The underside of any floor system used for dwelling purposes, business, or the storage of goods susceptible to damage by floodwater or top of pad of a manufactured home must be above the applicable flood construction level specified herein. 4.1.3 By the enactment, administration or enforcement of s.4.1, the TNRD does not represent that any building, including a manufactured home, located, constructed, sited or used in accordance with the provisions of this Bylaw, or in accordance with any advice, information, direction or guidance provided by the TNRD in the administration of this Bylaw, will not be damaged by flooding or erosion. Thompson-Nicola Regional District Zoning Bylaw No. 2400 Consolidated for Convenience Only to November 19, 2020 Page 30 of 118 4.1.4 Flood Construction Level The following elevations are specified as flood construction levels, except that where more than one flood construction level is applicable, the higher elevation is deemed the flood construction level: a) in the case of named lakes (Geodetic Survey of Canada cited G.S.C.): Adams Lake 3 metres above the natural boundary of the lake Bonaparte Lake 3 metres above the natural boundary of the lake Kamloops Lake 346.2 metres G.S.C. datum for land adjacent to the lake Little Shuswap Lake 350.2 metres G.S.C. datum for land adjacent to the lake Nicola Lake 627.9 metres G.S.C. datum for land adjacent to the lake Stump Lake 746.5 metres G.S.C. datum for land adjacent to the lake b) 8 metres above the natural boundary of the Fraser River;

BLACKSTOCK RHONDA MCALLISTER Abstract Although the First Nations Elders from the interior of southern British Columbia, Canada, recall times when grass was “belly-high to a horse,” today they worry about the deteriorated state of the grasslands. Using ethnographic and historical research methods, this paper documents recognized First Nations experts’ historical memory of the grasslands. Based on the ethnographic accounts, this paper also attempts to reconstruct the effects of colonization on the grassland ecology and First Nations culture. Secondary sources such as early settlers’ accounts and current grassland ecology research are used to augment the testimony of the experts. Two eras are described: 1) Pre-contact era (the three hundred years prior to contact); and 2) Post-contact era (1846-present).

Department of Zoology The University of British Columbia, Vancouver 3, Canada. ABSTRACT Vertical distribution and onshore movement of maturing kokanee were studied by means of extensive gill net sets in Nicola Lake between 1958 and 1961. In late spring of 1959 maturing kokanee were found largely in the upper 30 feet of the lake but gradually dispersed to occupy all depths to 100 feet by mid-summer. A diel vertical migration occurred in which matur• ing kokanee moved surfaceward during the day and downward at night in 1959. In 1961 the reverse condition was observed wherein kokanee avoided areas of bright illumination during the day but moved surfaceward at night. No effect on vertical distribution of kokanee by extensive and rapid fluctua• tions of the thermocline, initiated by wind induced seiches, was noted in 1959 or 1961.
  • FNESS Strategic Plan

    FNESS Strategic Plan

    Strategic Plan 2013-2015 At a Glance FNESS evolved from the Society of Native Indian Fire Fighters of BC (SNIFF), which was established in 1986. SNIFF’s initial objectives were to help reduce the number of fire-related deaths on First Nations reserves, but it changed its emphasis to incorporate a greater spectrum of emergency services. In 1994, SNIFF changed its name to First Nations’ Emergency Services Society of BC to reflect the growing diversity of services it provides. Today our organization continues to gain recognition and trust within First Nations communities and within Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) and other organizations. This is reflected in both the growing demand of service requests from First Nations communities and the development of more government-sponsored programs with FNESS. r e v Ri k e s l A Inset 1 Tagish Lake Teslin 1059 Daylu Dena Atlin Lake 501 Taku River Tlingit r e v Liard Atlin Lake i R River ku 504 Dease River K Fort a e Nelson T r t 594 Ts'kw'aylaxw e c iv h R ik River 686 Bonaparte a se a 687 Skeetchestn e D Fort Nelson R i v e First Nations in 543 Fort Nelson Dease r 685 Ashcroft Lake Dease Lake 592 Xaxli'p British Columbia 593 T'it'q'et 544 Prophet River 591 Cayoose Creek 692 Oregon Jack Creek 682 Tahltan er 683 Iskut a Riv kw r s e M u iv R Finlay F R Scale ra e n iv s i er 610 Kwadacha k e i r t 0 75 150 300 Km S 694 Cook's Ferry Thutade R r Tatlatui Lake i e 609 Tsay Keh Dene v Iskut iv 547 Blueberry River e R Lake r 546 Halfway River 548 Doig River 698 Shackan Location

Levy and Eric Parkinson Levy Research Services Ltd. 315 Lonsdale Ave. North Vancouver, B.C. Canada V7M 2G3 March 2014 ______________________ Recommended citation for this report: Levy, D.A. and E. Parkinson. 2014. Independent review of the science and management of Thompson River steelhead. Prepared for Thompson Steelhead Technical Subcommittee c/o Cook's Ferry Indian Band, Spences Bridge, BC. 104p. Executive Summary In response to the decline in steelhead productivity that has been occurring since the early 1990's, the Thompson Steelhead Technical Subcommittee commissioned the present report to evaluate steelhead status, causes for the decline, effectiveness of management tools and prospects for recovery. The work was motivated by a strong desire among Thompson River First Nations to develop a sound conservation strategy that ensures long-term sustainability and a recovery of the traditional food, social and ceremonial fishery. Thompson River steelhead support a world-class recreational fishery which is managed by the Province of BC. DFO is intimately involved in the management process by developing salmon harvest regulations to mitigate commercial by-catch mortality. First Nations are largely outside of the management process and meaningful consultations have been absent to date. Science and management tools included harvest analysis, juvenile assessment, forecasting procedures, spawner enumeration and enhancement. Conservation thresholds place steelhead numbers in the conservation concern zone in most years.

    Geological Report on the Stump Lake Property Nicola Mining Division

    Geological Report on the Stump Lake Property Nicola Mining Division British Columbia N.T.S. 921/8W Latitude SO0 20’ N, Longitude 120° 20’ W Braniff Gold Corporation Suite 501- 905 West Pender St. Vancouver, B.C. V6C lL6 by Calvin Church, P.Geo. Vancouver, B.C. June 20,199s Summary The Stump Lake property is a polymetallic precious metal bearing high level epithermal showing located in the Nicola Mining Division (NTS 921/8W) in south central British Columbia. Silver rich veins were also mined for gold, lead and zinc, over short periods, from the Mary Reynolds claim since 1889. Late Triassic volcaniclastic rocks belonging to the Nicola Group underlie the entire property and were accreated as pert of the Quesnelia Terrane which forms part of the Intermontane tectonic belt. The eastern facies of the Nicola group outcrops in the central and northern parts of the property and is represented by augite porphyritic flow and breccias. Mineralized quartz-carbonate sulphide veins in the Stump Lake camp are north trending, dip steeply east and contain abundant pyrite, galena, sphalerite and tetrabedrite. The mineralization on the property is aligned subparallel to north-northeast trending regional structures (Quilchena and Stump Lake Faults) which resulted from Tertiary extentional tectonism. Similar regional tectonic trends prevalent in Tertiary time are the primary cause of other deep-seated epithermal precious metal deposits in British Columbia. Anomalous soil geochemistry and Induced Polarization geophysical surveys have been successful in outlining mineralized veins on the property. Braniff Gold Corpration completed a soil geochemical survey over the centra1 portion of the claims in October 1997.
