  • Development of a Geotechnical Asset Management Program for the New Brunswick of Transportation and Infrastructure
    Development of a Geotechnical Asset Management Program for the New Brunswick of Transportation and Infrastructure Jared McGinn, Research Engineer, New Brunswick Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (NBDTI) Serge T. Dupuis, ing., MBA, M.Sc., Professeur, Département de génie civil, Faculté d’ingénierie Université de Moncton Philippe Goguen, Summer Engineering Student NBDTI, Université de Moncton Reilly Parsons, Summer Engineering Student NBDTI, University of New Brunswick Paper prepared for presentation at the Innovations in Asset Management Session of the 2018 Annual Conference of the Transportation Association of Canada Saskatoon, SK ABSTRACT A large portion of highways in New Brunswick are adjacent to streams, rivers, lakes, and ocean waters. Erosion and instability can occur due to shifting water ways, ice scour, and sea level rise. Geotechnical assets affected by these environmental conditions could not be efficiently managed using traditional methods. During the summer of 2017, a Geotechnical Asset Management (GAM) program was developed by the New Brunswick Department of Infrastructure (NBDTI) and the Université de Moncton (UdeM). The purpose of the GAM program is to catalogue the geotechnical assets and their conditions, and prioritize repair efforts. Over 400 km of road within New Brunswick was selected for the trial. All embankments along these routes were evaluated and ranked according to their condition. It was concluded that the GAM method for collecting geotechnical data was effective when comparing conditions of many sections of embankments along roadways that are experiencing erosion or instability of the road embankment. 1 Introduction Asset management is the integration of finance, planning, personnel, and information management, enabling agencies to manage asset cost more effectively.

  • ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN 2008-2012 GULF REGION Adult
    ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN 2008-2012 GULF REGION Adult Smolt Spawning Eggs Parr Eyed Eggs Fry Alevin Did you know that… • Salmon eggs are spawned in freshwater during the fall, incubate during the winter, and hatch in the spring. • Eggs hatch as fry and develop into parr over their first 2-4 years of life in freshwater. • Parr develop into smolts which leave their freshwater environment in the spring and migrate to the ocean. • Smolts that grow in the ocean for 1 year before they return to their native rivers to spawn are called grilse but smolts that grow in the ocean for 2 or more years before returning to spawn are called salmon. • After spawning in the fall, salmon and grilse are called kelts or black salmons and remain in rivers under the cover of ice until spring at which time they return to the ocean environment. • Salmon and grilse can spawn multiple times during their life. ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN GULF REGION PLAN OVERVIEW The future well-being of the Atlantic salmon resource depends upon all parties working together through an integrated approach and in a harmonized manner. The Atlantic Salmon Integrated Management Plan for the Gulf Region is a five-year plan designed to engage the parties interested in the sustainable and orderly management of Atlantic salmon. It aim at strengthening their participation and to improve communications towards this endeavour. Engagement of the public and its community representatives should lead to better predictability and transparency in the decision making process. It is also meant to be an umbrella plan that allows for an adaptive and inclusive management approach based on the stakeholders' capacity.

  • In DFO Gulf Region (New Brunswick Salmon Fishing Areas 15 And
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Gulf Region Science Response 2015/008 UPDATE OF STOCK STATUS OF ATLANTIC SALMON (SALMO SALAR) IN DFO GULF REGION (NEW BRUNSWICK SALMON FISHING AREAS 15 AND 16) FOR 2014 Context The last assessment of stock status of Atlantic salmon for Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Gulf Region was completed after the 2013 return year (DFO 2014). DFO Fisheries and Aquaculture Management (FAM) requested an update of the status of the Atlantic Salmon stocks in DFO Gulf Region for 2014. Indicators for adult and juvenile Atlantic Salmon stocks of the Restigouche River (Salmon Fishing Area 15) and the Miramichi River (SFA 16) are provided in this report. Juvenile indices for the Buctouche River (SFA 16) are also provided. This Science Response Report results from the Science Response Process of December 11, 2014 on Indicators for Atlantic Salmon for Gulf New Brunswick rivers (SFA 15, 16). No additional publications from this process are anticipated. Background All rivers flowing into the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence are included in DFO Gulf Region. Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) management areas in DFO Gulf Region are defined by four salmon fishing areas (SFA 15 to 18) encompassing portions of the three Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island). For management purposes, Atlantic Salmon are categorized as small salmon (grilse; fish with a fork length less than 63 cm) and large salmon (fish with a fork length equal to or greater than 63 cm). Analysis and Response Abundance indices of adult salmon Information on adult salmon abundance is provided for the Restigouche River of SFA 15 and the Miramichi River of SFA 16.

When Dr. Fluck attached band No. 532-23158 to this Starling's leg on November 30,. 1955 he in- itiated a series of events which was to cause the deaths of hundreds of Evening Grosbeaks(Hesperiphona vespertina), the exact total of which can never be known. The Starling in questionfound its way to Lae Humqui in Mata- pedia county of Canada's QuebecProvince. One of the farms sit- uated on the shore of the lake is owned by Monsieur Thomas Brousseauand it was his eat that caught the bird on April 4, 1958. M. Brousseauis one of the very few bilingual residents of that typically French-Canadian parish and he is a man of many interests and capabilities. Respondingto the instructions conveyedby its legend he sent the band with appropriate information to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The subsequentarrival of the explanatory flimsie sufficed to inoculate him with an awareness of the bird-band- ing process. In addition to his functionsas farmer, mayor of his parish, justice of the peace,and gamewarden, M. Brousseau,since 1929, has served from June to Novembe: of eachyear as salmonguardian on the West Branch of the Patapedia River.
