Title of Thesis/Project/Extended Essay Basin Architecture Of The North Okanarran Valley Fill, British Columbia Author: (signature) Sandy Vanderburrrh (name) (date) ' ABSTRACT The North Okanagan Valley occupies an elongate basin (-45 km long by -3 km wide) situated in the Cordilleran physiographic region of the southern Interior of British Columbia. Depth to bedrock in the North Okanagan Basin is at least 680 m below the valley floor and 2200 m below the surrounding Thompson Plateau and Shuswap Highlands. The volume of sediment stored within the basin is estimated to be about 49 km3 and the study findings suggest that the basin fill was mainly deposited after -19 ka during late Wisconsin glaciation and deglaciation. Analysis of 16 km of high resolution reflection seismic profiles and 30 lithologic logs was carried out to delineate and interpret the basine'architectureof the valley fill and provide an interpretive framework for basin architectures of other glaciated Cordilleran valleys. The main objective of this study was to establish the three-dimensional basin architecture of the North Okanagan Valley. The seismic and lithologic data were integrated using a depositional systems approach which revealed four distinct depositional systems that characterize the basin architecture: the Fluvio-Glacial, Glaciolacustrine, Alluvial Fan, and Fluvial Systems. The clastic fill of the basin shows an overall fining upward trend from basal, coarse-grained, stratified and poorly stratified sand and gravel of the Fluvio-Glacial System to the Glaciolacustrine System. The Glaciolacustrine System is exposed at the surface and fines upward from glaciolacustrine fine sand to silt and clay. The Alluvial Fan System interfingers the Fluvio-Glacial and Glaciolacustrine Systems and plays an important role in the overall geometry of the basin architecture. Channel sand and silt of the Fluvial System are incised into the upper part of the Glaciolacustrine System. w From this data a three-dimensional model is proposed for the North Okanagan Basin that defines the architecture of the basin fill and highlights the geomorphic environment during deglaciation. The model illustrates that during ice advance and retreat thick sequences of coarse-grained, stratified sediments were deposited adjacent to the glacial ice. Blockage of the Okanagan Valley and formation of Glacial Lake Penticton resulted in thick accumulations of glaciolacustrine silt and clay in a setting which was relatively free of stagnant ice complexes. During, and soon after deglaciation, alluvial fans were deposited into the basin by mass movement processes that redistributed unstable glacigenic sediments. On the valley floor, the Shuswap River is incised into the glaciolacustrine sediments and is representative of contemporary geomorphic processes.

    Appendix 6.7-E Thompson River Hydrologic and Hydraulic Impacts AJAX PROJECT Environmental Assessment Certificate Application / Environmental Impact Statement for a Comprehensive Study www.knightpiesold.com MEMORANDUM To: Stephanie Eagen Date: July 20, 2015 File No.: VA101-246/35-A.01 From: Toby Perkins Cont. No.: VA15-02874 Re: Ajax Project - Thompson River Hydrologic and Hydraulic Impacts The purpose of this memorandum is present the results of assessment of potential changes in hydrology and hydraulics on the Thompson River downstream from the outlet of Kamloops Lake due to the proposed Ajax Project. Flow reductions, particularly during low flow periods, have the potential to impact fish habitat. The Project will affect Thompson River flows due to a water withdrawal of 1505 m3/hr (0.42 m3/s) from Kamloops Lake and flow reductions in Peterson Creek due to mine activities. This memorandum is a revision of the work completed by Knight Piésold Ltd. (KP) on March 18, 2013 (KP cont. no. VA13-00493), which assessed the effects of a Kamloops lake water withdrawal of 2000 m3/hr (0.56 m3/s). Hydrology The Project is located in the Thompson River Valley on the south side of Kamloops Lake. The hydrology of the Thompson River was assessed based on Water Survey of Canada (WSC) data available for the Thompson River. The Project location and the locations of relevant WSC gauging stations are shown on Figure 1. Details of these WSC stations are summarized in Table 1. The WSC operated a gauge on the Thompson River near Savona (08LF033), near the outlet of Kamloops Lake, between 1926 and 1966.

In this study I explore methods for employing LiDAR-derived digital elevation models as a tool for archaeological prospection within the Highland Valley Copper Mine. A review of contemporary and formative LiDAR-analysis archaeological prospection research was conducted to identify the most appropriate visualization techniques and data management workflow. Specific methods for the identification of microtopographic relief with the potential to contain archaeological resources were developed. The efficacy of LiDAR-based topographic analysis using manual feature extraction is validated through comparison with georeferenced survey and ground-truthing data provided by my research partners at the Nlaka’pamux Nation Tribal Council.

  • Rural Food and Wine Tourism in Canada's South Okanagan Valley
    sustainability Article Rural Food and Wine Tourism in Canada’s South Okanagan Valley: Transformations for Food Sovereignty? Danielle Robinson 1,2 1 School of Business, Okanagan College, BC V1Y 4X8, Canada 2 Community, Culture and Global Studies, Irving K. Barber Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of British Columbia Okanagan, Kelowna, V1V 1V7, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: This interdisciplinary research analyses the relationships between food sovereignty prin- ciples and food and wine tourism in rural contexts by asking how rural tourism stakeholders understand these concepts, mobilize the interrelationships, and to what purpose. Wine and food tourism is one of the fastest-growing rural tourism niches, with effects on the orientation of food systems, the livelihoods of producers, the viability of rural communities, and the biophysical environ- ment. Secondary research and semi-structured interviews provide insights into how qualities of food sovereignty transitions are conceptualized, recognized, developed, supported, and promoted in the case of British Columbia’s South Okanagan Valley. An appreciative approach was used because this research aims to understand rural food and wine tourism’s potential contribution to food sovereignty. Although the term ‘food sovereignty’ did not resonate for most participants, qualities of a transition towards food sovereignty such as reorienting agriculture, food processing and consumption to the local region, supporting rural economies and environmental sustainability were considered integral to rural food tourism. Participants saw future opportunities for rural food and wine tourism to serve broader transformative purposes that would benefit locals, visitors, and the environment. Research results could be used to inspire critical academic, community and policy dialogue about food sovereignty in wine and food tourism destinations.

  • The Columbia-Kootenay
    PART 9 – PROPOSED SINGLE MEMBER PLURALITY BOUNDARIES 9 F. The Columbia-Kootenay 1. Evolution of the Columbia- Kootenay electoral districts Immediately prior to the work of the 9 – PART PRO 1966 Angus Commission, there were eight electoral districts in the geograph- ical area we describe as the Columbia- Kootenay (see Kootenays, Map 1). P OSED Moving from east to west, they were: • Columbia S • Fernie INGLE ME • Cranbrook • Revelstoke • Kaslo-Slocan M BER PLURALITY • Nelson-Creston • Rossland-Trail • Grand Forks–Greenwood. B OUNDARIES Kootenays, Map 1 133 9 PART 9 – PROPOSED SINGLE MEMBER PLURALITY BOUNDARIES a. The Angus Commission (1966) The Angus Commission decided to treat the Grand Forks–Greenwood area as part of the Okanagan rather than P ART the Kootenays (where it stayed until 1999), which left seven electoral dis- 9 – PRO tricts in the Kootenays. The commis- sion was satisfied that, due to improved P OSED road access, the East and West Koote- nays should be treated as one region. S Although its population justified only INGLE ME three members in the Legislative Assembly, the commission decided that proper and effective representation M required four members. BER PLURALITY To reduce the number of electoral districts from seven to four (see Kootenays, Map 2), the commission combined the Cranbrook and Fernie B OUNDARIES electoral districts into a new Kootenay district. It also combined the Co- lumbia, Revelstoke and Kaslo-Slocan electoral districts into a new Columbia River district – although there was no great community of interest between the three portions of this new district (to be divided by Rogers Pass), improved transportation now made such a union reasonable.
