CONNECTORCONNECTOR PRESIDENT’S CORNER No CONNECTORCONNECTOR PRESIDENT’S CORNER No. 118 June 2013 NCLGA CONVENTION 2014 Hello all NCLGA’rs. MAY 7-9, 2014 FORT ST. JOHN Summer has arrived! How nice it is The venue for the 2014 AGM & Convention will be to see all the different shades of the new: green that Mother Nature is showing Pomeroy Hotel & Conference Centre us across the region. We are 11308 Alaska Road certainly blessed to be living in this Telephone: 1.866.618.3233 country. www.pomeroyhotel.com I have just returned from the Resources North To reserve a room at the Pomeroy please quote the Conference in Prince George. It was mainly about room block code when you call in: “North Central the cumulative effects of land management Government Conference – Karin Carlson” practices. The information shared mostly pertained to Central and Northern BC, the same area which is Additional Accommodation: covered by NCLGA. We must understand how economic development of one resource effects the Quality Inn Grande operations of other resources and the communities (1.5 km to convention hotel) that host these resource companies. 9830 100 Avenue I had the opportunity to meet with Mike Morris, the 250.787.0521 or 1.800.663.8312 new MLA representing Prince George – Mackenzie. www.qualityinnnortherngrand.com We spoke about rural issues in general and what he saw as the biggest issue in his riding. It was a good Stonebridge Hotel meeting, and a start to a good relationship with Mike (2.0 km to convention hotel) and the NCLGA. 9223 100 Street 250.263.6880 or 1.888.419.4657 As June comes to a close we say goodbye to our www.stonebridgehotel.ca former Executive Director, Maxine Koppe. She has supported the leadership of NCMA, and then Pomeroy Inn and Suites NCLGA.

She is a very detail oriented 250.262.3030 or 1.888.264.3030 individual and ran our office the same way. We will www.pomeroygroup.ca miss her. I know that all our members join with me in wishing Maxine success in whatever she undertakes in the future. Thank you, Maxine. Super 8 (2.6 km to convention hotel) I would also like to welcome our new Executive 9500 Alaska Road Director, Oliver Ray. His background includes a 250.785.7588 or 1.866.828.8885 healthy mix of business, politics and the arts, and I’m www.super8.com sure he’ll prove to be a valuable member of the NCLGA team as we move forward.

When West Fraser Timber announced the closure of the Eurocan Pulp and Paper mill in the fall of 2009, a feeling of gloom swept across this community. It meant just one major industrial employer in a town built around industrial development. But here we are, three-and-a-half years later, and we’re seeing growth once again. The future has never looked brighter, largely due to the natural advantages that Kitimat has possessed since day one. Our ice-free, deep sea port is integrated with CN’s extensive Northern American rail network. With three liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals proposed for Kitimat – and the companies behind them moving closer to final investment decisions – businesses in the commercial sector are positioning themselves to capitalize. There’s already a new Tim Horton’s in town, retailers are opening up in the City Centre Mall, and there’s interest in developing new hotel accommodation. The turning point came in January 2010, when Apache Canada purchased a majority interest in the Kitimat LNG export project on Haisla Nation reserve land at Bish Cove. Chevron Canada has ~ since come on board to form a 50/50 joint partnership with Apache. Preparatory activities such as ~ site clearing and access road upgrades are ongoing. KITIMAT In December 2011, Rio Tinto Alcan issued notice to proceed with the $3.3 billion Kitimat Modernization Project. This was a significant announcement bolstering not only the local economy but also British Columbia’s economy. Since then, other companies have been moving forward with plans to invest here. The biggest news that followed was the announcement of the LNG Canada project – a $12 billion proposal to develop an LNG export facility on the former Methanex ammonia/methanol plant site through a joint venture involving Shell (40 per cent), Korea Gas, Mitsubishi and PetroChina (each 20 per cent). Meanwhile, TransCanada was chosen to build and operate the $4 billion Coastal GasLink pipeline to transport natural gas from BC’s northeast to the LNG Canada terminal. Project descriptions for both the marine terminal and the pipeline have been submitted to the BC Environmental Assessment Office and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency. There’s also the Douglas Channel Energy Partnership (BC LNG). This barge-based plant is the smallest of the three LNG proposals. It will be fabricated and assembled in a shipyard, then towed to its permanent location on the west side of Douglas Channel. The project is expected to utilize existing capacity in the Pacific Northern Gas pipeline system, thus making it the closest to reality. Emerging opportunities extend beyond LNG. For example, newspaper publisher David Black submitted a proposal last August to construct a large oil refinery half way between Terrace and Kitimat, to process heavy crude oil brought in via pipeline. Mr. Black believes exporting refined products mitigates the threat of damage to the marine environment from a potential spill of raw bitumen. The basis for locating such a facility on the coast as opposed to near the source of oil is due to the cost of transporting refinery modules from overseas. The capital cost for this project is estimated to be around $16 billion. These projects are just a sampling of the interest we’re seeing in Kitimat. Of course, such activity poses challenges for the community.

It has come to the Board’s attention that, due to an oversight in funding allocations, there are no funds available for treatment of invasive plants on public lands by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operation and Resource Development (FLNRORD). These non-funded activities include the ongoing treatment work targeted towards known, existing, high priority areas in our region as well as the rest of the province. This dramatic oversight will result in the spread of invasive plants on FLNRORD lands going unchecked and affecting neighbouring agricultural lands. The PRRD respectfully requests answers to the following questions from each Ministry’s perspective: 1.

I apologize I was not available when you met with Government officials at the Resource Forum in Prince George but understand they were successful meetings in bringing forward the very valid concerns for our Region. I have continued to advocate behind the scenes in Victoria with both my colleagues and the Government decision makers to ensure they realize this is one of the most important issues facing our Region and that to date, the lack of information sharing with and consultation with local Governments and stakeholders has been unacceptable. I am encouraged to hear there will be meetings that have been committed to by Government taking place soon in the South Peace and although this is a positive step, much more work is needed and I expect the Ministers and Government to be open and transparent with you and the public. This issue is one that if not handled properly, could have negative ripple effects on our wildlife, back country, business and families and we all need to be working collectively to ensure the best decision is made for everyone.
