C. 1985. The rivers of Labrador. Can. Spec. Publ. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 81: 389 p. Physical and biological data are presented for 120 river systems in Labrador. Based on bio-physical parameters, Labrador has been divided into six regions. A general description of each region is followed by a detailed summary of information from each individual river in that region, proceeding south to north. Past and present developments within the watersheds are documented. Physical data presented include characteristics of each drainage system, and locations and descriptions of obstructions to fish passage. Results of water quality analyses, where available, are also included. The size and location of salmonid rearing and spawning habitat are presented for 82 rivers. The distribution within Labrador of 24 freshwater, anadromous and catadromous fishes is summarized. Emphasis is placed on the production and freshwater exploitation of Atlantic salmon. Production estimates, based on available rearing habitat for salmon parr, are presented for 60 rivers. Data on Atlantic salmon angling are reported from 19 rivers and the biological characteristics of the catch, where available, are included. Data collected at counting fences on five rivers are sum- marized. Catch/effort data from the commercial fishery for Arctic char in northern Labrador are tabulated. Data available from the freshwater exploitation of species other than Atlantic salmon are also included. RÉSUMÉ ANDERSON, T. C. 1985. The rivers of Labrador. Can. Spec. Publ. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 81: 389 p. On présente les données physiques et biologiques pour 120 bassins fluviaux situés au Labrador. À partir de paramètres bio-physiques, le Labrador a été divisé en six régions. Après une description générale de chaque région, vient un résumé détaillé de l'information provenant de chaque cours d'eau dans cette région, en allant du sud vers le nord. Les réalisations actuelles et passées à l'intérieur des bassins-versants sont passées en revue. Les données physiques présentées comprennent les caractéristiques de chaque bassin de drai- nage de même que l'emplacement et la description des obstacles au passage des poissons. Les résultats des analyses de la qualité de l'eau sont mentionnés lorqu'ils sont connus. On donne pour 82 cours d'eau les dimensions et l'emplacement des aires de fraie et de croissance des salmonidés. On résume ensuite la distribution au Labrador de 24 espèces de poissons d'eau douce anadromes et catadromes. L'accent est ibis sur la production et l'exploitation en eau douce du saumon de l'Atlantique. Des estimations de production, basées sur les aires de croissance que peuvent utiliser les tacons de saumon, sont données pour 60 cours d'eau. Les statistiques sur la pêche à la ligne du saumon de l'Atlantique dans 19 cours d'eau sont mentionnées et les caractéristiques biologiques des prises sont incluses lorsqu'elles sont disponibles. On résume les données recueillies à des barrages de dénombrement dans cinq cours d'eau. Les données sur les prises et l'effort de pêche provenant de la pêche commerciale de l'omble chevalier au nord du Labrador sont présentées sous forme de tableaux. On a inclus également les données existantes provenant de l'exploitation en eau douce d'espèces autres que le saumon de l'Atlantique. iv RIVER INDEX River Figure Drainage River name number number area (km2) Page Forteau Brook 1 3 389 13 L'Anse-au-Loup Brook 2 4 130 17 Pinware River 3 5 2 486 20 Temple Brook 4 7 181 29 St. Peters River 5 8 140 31 St. Charles River 6 9 311 33 Mary's Harbour River 7 10 414 38 St. Lewis River 8 11 2 590 41 Notleys Brook 9 12 46 43 Bobbys Brook 10 13 245 45 Alexis River 11 14 3 160 47 Shinneys Waters 12 15 313 50 Gilbert River 13 16 642 53 River 14 (Unnamed) 14 17 98 56 White Bear Arn-i River 15 18 233 58 River 16 (Unnamed) 16 19 45 60 Hawke River 17 20 1 891 62 Caplin Bay Brook 18 21 150 65 Partridge Bay Brook 19 22 70 67 River 20 (Unnamed) 20 23 119 69 Shoal Bay Brook 21 24 18 71 River 22 (Unnamed) 22 25 13 73 Black Bear River 23 26 645 75 Open Bay Brook 24 27 39 77 Porcupine Harbour River 25 28 155 79 River 26 (Unnamed) 26 29 70 81 Reeds Pond Brook 27 30 233 83 Sandhill River 28 31 1 142 85 Dykes River 29 41 337 129 Paradise River 30 42 5 276 131 Eagle River 31 43 10 824 133 White Bear River 32 44 1 075 141 North River 33 45 2 234 144 Flatwater Brook 34 47 299 152 English River 35 48 640 154 Kenemich River 36 49 699 156 Kenamu River 37 50 4 403 158 Traverspine River 38 51 728 161 Churchill River 39 52 93 415 163 Goose River 40 62 3 432 176 Cape Caribou River 41 63 546 180 Beaver River 42 64 1 878 182 Susan River 43 65 363 185 Naskaupi River 44 66 12 691 187 Crooked River 45 67 2 391 195 Sebaskachu River 46 68 580 199 Mulligan River 47 69 1 062 201 Double Mer River 48 70 1 425 203 River 49 (Unnamed) 49 71 855 206 RIVER INDEX (continued) River Figure Drainage River name number number area (km 2) Page Tom Luscombe Brook 50 72 1 010 208 West Brook 51 73 149 210 Middle Brook 52 74 323 213 River 53 (Unnamed) 53 75 135 217 River 54 (Unnamed) 54 76 78 217 River 55 (Unnamed) 55 78 163 224 Michael River 56 79 285 225 Jeanette Bay Brook 57 80 67 228 River 58 (Unnamed) 58 81 13 230 Tukialik River 59 82 47 232 Pamiulik River 60 83 493 234 Stag Bay Brook 61 84 155 236 Rattling Brook 62 85 285 238 Big River 63 86 2 849 240 Adlavik Brook 64 87 233 246 River 65 (Unnamed) 65 88 39 249 River 66 (Unnamed) 66 89 29 251 Makkovik Brook 67 90 111 253 Makkovik River 68 91 259 255 South Brook 69 92 399 258 Kaipokok River 70 93 2 499 260 English River 71 94 326 263 River 72 (Unnamed) 72 95 399 265 Kanairiktok River 73 96 12 274 267 Little Bay River 74 97 244 272 River 75 (Unnamed) 75 98 475 273 Adlatok (Ugjoktok) River 76 99 11 106 274 Hunt River 77 100 1 344 280 River 78 (Unnamed) 78 101 338 285 Flowers River 79 102 1 443 286 River 80 (Unnamed) 80 103 200 291 River 81 (Unnamed) 81 104 310 291 Sango Brook 82 105 806 293 Notakwanon River 83 107 4 999 300 Kogaluk River 84 108 5 434 303 Konrad Brook 85 109 569 306 Toma Brook 86 110 46 308 Kogluktokoluk Brook 87 111 1 095 309 Reid Brook 88 112 171 311 Anaktalik Brook 89 113 1 813 312 Tasiyuyaksuk Brook 90 114 104 315 Fraser River 91 115 1 606 316 Kamanatsuk Brook 92 116 829 322 Kingurutik River 93 117 4 157 325 Webb Brook 94 118 378 328 Avakutalc River 95 119 278 330 Avakutak Brook 96 120 166 332 Puttuaalu Brook 97 121 1 471 334 Nakavik Brook 98 122 113 336 vi RIVER INDEX (concluded) River Figure Drainage River name number number area (km2) Page Ikinet Brook 99 123 872 337 North River 100 124 1 655 338 Sipukat River 101 125 75 341 Siugak Brook 102 126 1 072 342 River 103 (Unnamed) 103 128 790 349 River 104 (Unnamed) 104 129 1 461 351 River 105 (Unnamed) 105 130 1 347 353 Ikarut River 106 131 474 355 Kiyuktok Brook 107 132 86 357 Pangertok Inlet River 108 133 278 358 River 109 (Unnamed) 109 134 212 359 River 110 (Unnamed) 110 135 168 361 Southwest Arm Brook 111 136 707 363 North Arm Brook 112 137 104 365 Nakvak Brook 113 138 844 367 Stecker River 114 139 172 370 Palmer River 115 140 311 371 Nachvak River 116 141 680 373 Kogarsok Brook 117 142 86 376 Komaktorvik River 118 143 699 378 Kangalaksiorvik River 119 144 654 380 Eclipse River 120 145 1 098 382 vii EXPLANATION OF FIGURES Coloured maps are used to illustrate the known accessibility of individual rivers to migrating Atlantic salmon.

For more information on membership levels and benefits, please visit www.mvmuseum.org To Our Readers his issue of the Dukes County Intelligencer is remarkable in its diver- Tsity. Our lead story comes from frequent contributor Chris Baer, who writes a swashbuckling narrative of two of the Vineyard’s most adventur- ous, daring — and quirky — characters, George Cleveland and George Fred Tilton, whose arctic legacies continue to this day. Our second story came about when Florence Obermann Cross suggested to a gathering of old friends that they write down their childhood memories of shared summers on the Lagoon. The result is a collective recollection of cottages without electricity or water; good neighbors; artistic and intellectual inspiration; sailing, swimming and long-gone open views. This is a slice of Oak Bluffs history beyond the more well-known Cottage City and Campground stories. Finally, the Museum’s chief curator, Bonnie Stacy, has reminded us that 75 years ago the ’38 hurricane, the mother of them all, was unannounced and deadly, even here on Martha’s Vineyard. — Susan Wilson, editor THE DUKES COUNTY INTELLIGENCER VOL. 55, NO. 1 © 2013 WINTER 2013 Left Behind: George Cleveland, George Fred Tilton and the Last Whaler to Hudson Bay by Chris Baer ......................................................................................

    5 American Currents Vol. 41, No. 4 IOWA’S CURIOUS RECORD FOR LAKE CHUB (COUESIUS PLUMBEUS) John Olson Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Des Moines The Lake Chub Couesius( plumbeus) is a relatively large, slender-bodied minnow (Family: Cyprinidae) commonly reaching lengths of 4–5 inches and reaching a reported maximum of nearly 9 inches (Figure 1). There is usually a slender barbel near the tip of the maxillary. The Lake Chub is dark olive dorsally and is dusky white ventrally with a dark lateral band extending from the base of the caudal fin to the snout. Although superficially resembling the Creek Chub (Semotilus atromaculatus), the Lake Chub lacks the Figure 1. Lake Chub (Couesius plumbeus).

    Labrador City and Wabush : Resilient Communities Karen Oldford - Mayor Town of Labrador City Ken Anthony – CAO Town of Wabush Benefits of Labrador West Established community = reduced start up costs for industry Suited for operation phase of projects Experience of labour force Resource companies share in the value of creating community through corporate stewardship. Community amenities key for retaining workers. Link to natural environment – recreation amenities. Boom Bust Cycle Last big Bust 1982 Hundreds of homes vacant for approx 8 yrs Homes sold by banks and companies for $5,000- $25,000 Affordable homes and affordable apartment rents until 2005 2010 – same homes sell for $325,000 - $549,000 rental rates now $1,000 per bedroom i.e. 1 bedroom apt 1,200, 2 bedroom $2,000 and house rental $5,000 month! Challenges of Labrador West • Economic dependence on single industry • Growth impaired due to subsurface mineral rights • Transient Workforce Population • Expense of building/operating in remote northern location Challenges: Single Industry Market is volatile Community grows and diminishes in response to the resource Non renewable = finite. Challenges: Growth • Expansion/development encroach on mineral reserves • Land management strongly influenced by Provincial interest and local industry • Growth responds to market conditions – often lags behind needs of community and industry Challenges: Flyin/Flyout Arrangements Necessary for resource projects when workforce needs are high but short lived. I.e. construction phase Transient residents – not fully engaged in community (i.e. lack of community involvement and volunteerism. Often project negative image of the region due to their lived reality.) Negative perception amongst long-term residents of “contractors”.
