  • Water and Effluent Quality Management Policy”
    April 29, 2010 To: the Mackenzie Valley Combined Distribution List (see attached list) Re: Request for review of “Water and Effluent Quality Management Policy” Attached is a draft of the “Water and Effluent Quality Management Policy” (the Policy) for your review and comment. This Policy was developed by one of the Standard Procedures and Consistency Working Groups that were created in 2008 as a joint initiative of the Gwich’in, Sahtu, Wek’èezhìi and Mackenzie Valley Land and Water Boards. Like all the Working Group products, this Policy is intended to provide greater clarity, consistency and certainty to all parties involved in the Boards’ regulatory processes. The purpose of this Policy is to describe the Boards’ approach to setting limits, called effluent quality criteria (EQC), on the amount of waste that can be discharged from a project into the environment. By describing a standard, transparent approach to setting EQC, the Policy will address some of the concerns raised in several audits of the NWT regulatory system including the McCrank Report (2008), the 2005 Auditor General’s Report, and the first NWT Environmental Audit (2005). In addition to the Draft Policy, we have attached an information package containing a one-page Plain Language Introduction to the Policy as well as answers to “Frequently Asked Questions”. The information package is meant to provide context, promote understanding and to aid in the review of the Policy. Comments on the Draft Policy are requested by July 5, 2010. Comments or questions can be sent by email, fax or mail to the Working Group chair, Kathleen Racher, at the addresses listed below.

  • Northwest Territories Housing Corporation Annual Report 2012
    TABLED DOCUMENT 16-17(5) TABLED ON NOVEMBER 7, 2013 Northwest Territories Housing Corporation Annual Report 2012 - 2013 Northern Solutions for Northern Housing MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER The title of this year’s Annual Report of the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation (NWTHC) “Northern Solutions for Northern Housing” is one that clearly encompasses the activities that have been undertaken this past year under the strategic plan Building for the Future – Northern Solutions for Northern Housing. Introduced on April 16, 2012, Building for the Future – Northern Solutions for Northern Housing, is the strategic plan for the NWTHC that resulted from the Shelter Policy Review. The strategic plan provides a long-term strategic framework for housing. This strategic framework renews the NWTHC’s commitment to residents to build and strengthen housing programs and services. Building for the Future is built on the advice and input of Northerners. We were told by residents that they want the NWTHC and the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) to work in partnership with residents where appropriate and to support housing in a way that is fair and sustainable. Thank you to all those residents that provided input. We heard you and your participation helped guide the NWTHC in identifying its priorities. The NWTHC has been hard at work implementing several key initiatives under the strategic plan. In 2012, we saw the implementation of a new Public Housing rent scale. The new rent scale helps address many issues with Public Housing rents such as making rents simpler, increasing fairness, and addressing the disincentive to work. Additionally, the NWTHC introduced the Transitional Rent Supplement Program (TRSP) which is designed to provide supports to people facing affordability problems in private market rentals.

  • Language and Immigration
    December 4, 2007 Language and Immigration — 2006 Census — Statistics Canada today released information on language, immigration and citizenship, and migration and mobility from the 2006 census. The national census is conducted every five years, primarily to count all persons and dwellings in Canada. In the Northwest Territories, the census was undertaken in March and May of 2006. This report presents the fourth in a series of releases based on the 2006 census results. A few of the highlights for the Northwest Territories from the release include: • In 2006, 2,815 persons (6.9% of the population) residing in the NWT were foreign-born, a slight increase from the 6.6% enumerated in 1996 o 76% of the foreign-born population lived in Yellowknife. o Of the foreign-born population, 32.5% are from the Philippines, 16.7% from Ghana, 9.2% from the US, and 7.5% from Vietnam. • During the past five years (2001-2006), 7,045 people reported moving from the NWT to other places in Canada, while 6,360 people reported moving to the NWT, resulting in a net loss of 685 people for the territory o Alberta was the primary destination for people leaving the NWT, accounting for 44.1% of leavers, while BC accounted for 16.5%. • Results for mother tongue show that in 2006 English was represented in 76.8% of the population, and French 2.4%, while those with a mother tongue that was neither English nor French made up 19.9% of the population o Of the 19.9% of the population who indicated their mother tongue was neither English nor French, almost a quarter (24.5%) identified Dogrib as their mother tongue.

  • Wekweeti Wind Energy Pre-Feasibility Analysis Summary
    Wekweeti Wind Energy Pre-feasibility Analysis Summary Summary of Wind Study • Since 2005, the Aurora Research Institute (ARI) has been researching the potential for wind energy project in several communities in the Northwest Territories. • In 2009, ARI chose the community of Wekweeti for a desktop pre-feasibility study to assess the wind climate and the economics of building a wind project in the community. • Wekweeti ’s electrical load is powered by a diesel-electric plant. The community has an average electrical load of 116 kilowatts (kW) and a reported peak load of 137kW. • A hill directly northwest of the hamlet was identified as an ideal location for a wind project if one were to be proposed. • Public wind maps, nearby weather station data, and wind modelling reveal that the wind speeds are around 6 m/s (22 km/h) on the hilltops next to the hamlet. • An economic study of a wind project in Wekweeti found that wind energy would cost about $0.60 to $0.70 per kilowatt hour (kWh) to produce, and that subsidies would be needed to make it competitive with present diesel fuel prices. • When the cost of diesel climbs to over $2/litre the cost of electricity from a wind project will become cheaper than diesel-electric generation. • A two-year wind monitoring program is recommended for Wekweeti. • A meteorological tower with wind sensors are recommended for installation on top of the hill by the hamlet. Assessment of Wind Speed • Two hills near Wekweeti were identified as suitable sites for evaluating wind energy (Figure 1).

  • Interim Report 18 January, 2013
    Northwest Territories Electoral Boundaries Commission Interim Report 18 January, 2013 To the Residents of the Northwest Territories: In Canada, we live in a democracy where citizens elect their representatives. Representation is fundamental to electoral democracy. Citizens elect their representatives from geographic constituencies. The shapes of these constituencies – known as electoral districts or ridings – are determined when electoral boundaries are drawn. The Legislative Assembly appointed us to review the electoral boundaries of the Northwest Territories. This review is to ensure that all northerners are meaningfully represented in the Legislative Assembly. The Legislative Assembly asked the Commission to recommend how the electoral boundaries should be drawn if there are 18, 19, or 21 electoral districts. As part of the review of the electoral boundaries, we have prepared this Interim Report which contains a set of proposals for the electoral boundaries of the Northwest Territories. The Commission wants to know what northerners think about the electoral boundaries proposed in this Interim Report. There are multiple ways for northerners to comment on these proposals. Public Hearings: Speak at a public hearing between February 4th and March 13th in communities across the territory. Online: Submit comment on-line at www.nwtboundaries.ca Letters: Send a letter to the Commission (see page 28 for contact information). Your input is an important part of this process, and we look forward to hearing from you. Hon. Justice Shannon Smallwood

It is located on the shore of Snare Lake and is accessible by winter road or by air. In 2009, the plant supplied about 613 megawatt hours (MWh) of net energy generation to the community. The average load in the community was 116 kilowatts (kW) and the recorded peak load is 137kW. The minimum plant load is 89kW. Costs for fuel delivered to the community have been high historically but have been reduced substantially in the last year, the authors were informed, due to changes in approach to the winter road planning and costing. At the end of 2009, diesel fuel cost about $0.94 per litre delivered or $0.27 per kWh. The wind energy analysis and modeling in this report were based on existing airport meteorological data from the region and the publicly available wind maps.
