  • Mystic Spring"
    THE CONFUSING LEGEND OF THE "MYSTIC SPRING" by Grant Keddie, Royal B.C. Museum, 2003 In the municipality of Oak Bay, above the western side of Cadboro Bay, part of the uplands drain through a deep ravine now referred to as Mystic Vale. The creek that flows through this vale, or valley, has never been given a legal name but is referred to locally as Mystic Creek or Hobbs Creek. Mystic Creek flows north of Vista Bay Road and between Bermuda Street and Killarney road to the north of Cadboro Bay road. South of Cadboro Bay road the creek flows on the east side of Killarney road. Recently its south end was diverted east to Sinclair road. Mystic Vale is located at the far left of this photograph taken in the early 1900s. RBCM A-02978. To the west of Killarney road is Mystic Lane. Artificial duck ponds have been created above and below this lane. The area between Killarney road and the hill slope below Hibbens Close receives its surface and underground water supply from some of the uplands west of Mystic vale. House and yard construction projects in the 1930's and especially the development of the Cadboro Bay Auto court property in the 1940's disrupted the flow and configuration of two small creeks in this area. Three large ponds were dug in the 1940's to contain the flow of one of the creeks. Later, landfill and house construction altered this area substantially. The present artificial duck pond along Waring road is a remnant of one of these earlier water control ponds.

  • Historical Temporal Trends in Groundwater Levels from British Columbia, Canada

Tel.: +1 306 690 0573. E-mail address: [email protected] (S. Rayne). Management of groundwater quantity and quality is an important resource development issue in Canada [1]. Overuse and/or contamination of groundwater supplies has the potential to restrict future use of this resource [2]. In the western Canadian coastal province of British Columbia, increasing attention is being paid to the scientific and legislative/regulatory aspects of surface and groundwaters. Aquifer types in the province have been classified [3] and various investigations have employed case-study type approaches to determine the status of groundwater resources, developed rigorous quantitative models of representative aquifers with predictive capacity, and attempted to assess future changes due to natural and/or anthropogenic forcings (see, e.g., ref. [4-16] and references therein). In our previous work, we examined temporal trends in groundwater monitoring wells for the western Canada prairie province of Saskatchewan [17]. We found that groundwater resources in this region generally appear to be increasing over time and do not appear to be under current threat from depletion. As part of the current study, we have conducted a similar investigation on time trends for groundwater monitoring well levels in British Columbia.

  • Gordon Head Is Bordered on the North and East by Haro Strait, on the West by Blenkinsop Valley and Mount Douglas, and on the South by Mckenzie Avenue
    Geoffrey Vantreight with First Nations workers on the Vantreight strawberry farm, 1910 (1984-012-006) Gordon Head is bordered on the north and east by Haro Strait, on the west by Blenkinsop Valley and Mount Douglas, and on the south by McKenzie Avenue. It was a heavily forested wilderness when it was first settled by farmers, starting with James Tod (Todd) in 1852. By the 1870s, thirteen men, including Charles Dodd, Michael Finnerty, and John Work, owned all of the land identified as Gordon Head. The area became famous for its strawberries, which sold for high prices until 1914 when the dropping value of the crop led to the formation of the Saanich Fruit Growers’ Association. By 1945 the strawberry crop was declining in importance and daffodils became an important cash crop. Starting in 1902, Arbutus Cove was favoured as an area of summer homes for prominent Victoria-area families. In 1921, city water service was brought to Gordon Head leading to a proliferation of greenhouses and vegetable growers. Since the 1950s, the area has gradually been developed with single-family housing, facilitated through the introduction of sewers in the late 1960s. Produced by Saanich Archives, December 2020 Saanich Official Community Plan 2008, Map 22 Local Areas The District of Saanich lies within the traditional territories of the Ləkʷəŋən̓ and SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples. Evidence of First Nations settlement in the area now called Saanich dates back over 4,000 years. The Ləkʷəŋən̓ peoples are made up of two nations, the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations and the W̱ SÁNEĆ peoples are made up of five nations, W̱ JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), SȾÁUTW̱ (Tsawout), W̱ SIḴEM (Tseycum) and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat) Nations.

TD227.B7K46 2004 333.91’04’0971128 C2004-960175-X Executive summary This project focussed on the delineation and classification of developed aquifers within the Capital Regional District of British Columbia (CRD). The goal was to identify and map water-bearing unconsolidated and bedrock aquifers in the region, and to classify the mapped aquifers according to the methodology outlined in the B.C. Aquifer Classification System (Kreye and Wei, 1994). The project began in summer 2003 with the mapping and classification of aquifers in Sooke, and on the Saanich Peninsula. Aquifers in the remaining portion of the CRD including Victoria, Oak Bay, Esquimalt, View Royal, District of Highlands, the Western Communities, Metchosin and Port Renfrew were mapped and classified in summer 2004. The presence of unconsolidated deposits within the CRD is attributed to glacial activity within the region over the last 20,000 years. Glacial and glaciofluvial modification of the landscape has resulted in the presence of significant water bearing deposits, formed from the sands and gravels of Capilano Sediments, Quadra and Cowichan Head Formations.

  • Ships Point Awarded $200K!
    FANNY BAY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION Fannybaycommunity.com September 2015 Newsletter Date Volume 1, Issue 1 Ships Point awarded $200K! Canada will be 150 years old in 2017. In celebration of this momentous occasion, the federal government an- nounced the Canada 150 program. The program will invest $150 million dollars over two years in communi- ty infrastructure. In June, the Ships Point Improvement District board applied to Western Economic Diversifi- cation Canada (WD), who is delivering the program in western Canada, for a $200,000 grant to help towards Phase Two of our water system project. Two weeks ago we got the news that our grant application was ap- proved for the full amount! On July 30, 2015 Minister John Duncan announced five awards for Northern Vancouver Island at a ceremony in front of Courtenay City hall. Gary Patterson, the Chair of the SPID board attended the ceremony: “Ships Point Improvement District is delighted to be one of the recipients under the Canada 150 Community Infra- structure Program. It is great for a small, self- supporting community to be given the recognition and help with replacing our aging water system.” For Ships Point ratepayers, the Canada 150 grant, along with a previous grant for $75,000, will mean a sav- ings of about $1,000 per household. Special congratulations and thank you to Nina LeBlanc, Frank Green, Bill Trussler and Pat Edwards for all their hard work on behalf of Ships Point ratepayers.
