  • Page 1 of 30 June 02, 2021 Cambridge Bay New Power Plant Project Nunavut Planning Commission ______Is Not a Viable Option
    Cambridge Bay New Power Plant Project Nunavut Planning Commission ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Project Introduction Qulliq Energy Corporation (QEC) is proposing to construct and operate a new power plant in the Hamlet of Cambridge Bay located in the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut (the Project). This will be a multi-year Project that will include the installation of a 90,000-liter capacity horizontal fuel tank and two 2 million-liter capacity vertical fuel tanks and the new power plant will use more fuel-efficient engines. The plant will generate less noise and exhaust gases, due to the availability of equipment like industrial scrubbers and hospital grade silencers which will substantially reduce sound and air pollution. The new plant will have a life cycle of over 40 years and will be capable of integrating renewable energy sources. Proponent Information Qulliq Energy Corporation (QEC) is a Government of Nunavut (GN) territorial corporation. Through the operation of 25 stand-alone diesel power plants with a total installed capacity of approximately 76,000 kilowatts, QEC is the sole provider of electricity to approximately 15,000 customers in the territory. QEC provides mechanical, electrical, and line maintenance services from three regional centers: Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay. QECs administrative activities are carried out at the Head Office in Baker Lake and the Corporate Office in Iqaluit. QEC is committed to planning and developing cost effective and efficient ways to provide a safe, reliable and stable energy supply for all Nunavummiut. Project Background Cambridge Bay is a community with increasing demand for electricity, reflecting its growing population and increasing government and commercial enterprise.

  • MX-10 & MX-13 Muskox Abundance and Management Recommendations
    MX-10 & MX-13 Muskox Abundance and Management Recommendations Consultation With Kivalliq Hunters and Trappers Organizations September 23rd to 26th, 2019 Authors: Keenan Lindell, Kivalliq Regional Wildlife Technician, GNDOE, Arviat, Mitch Campbell, Kivalliq Regional Wildlife Biologist, GNDOE, Arviat, Department of Environment, Government of Nunavut Arviat, Nunavut Executive Summary Representatives of the Government of Nunavut, Department of Environment (DOE) including Mitch Campbell, Kivalliq Region Biologist, and Keenan Lindell, Wildlife Technician, conducted phone call consultations with the Hunters and Trappers Organizations (HTOs) of Rankin Inlet, Naujaat, and Coral Harbour as well as a face to face consultation with the Arviat HTO, between September 23 and September 30th, 2019. The purpose of these consultations was to review the status of the Kivalliq MX-10 and MX-13 muskox subpopulations and request support for the DOE recommendation to increase the Total Allowable Harvest (TAH) of the Northern Kivalliq muskox subpopulation (MX-10) from 90 to 95 muskox, and the recommendation to keep the Central Kivalliq Muskox subpopulation (MX-13) status quo (unchanged) at 182 muskox. Attempts were made to speak with all Kivalliq HTOs, unfortunately our calls with Baker Lake and Whale Cove had to be postponed due to a search and rescue in Baker Lake, and a lack of quorum in Whale Cove. Despite several attempts to reach the Chesterfield Inlet HTO by both phone and e-mail, we did not receive a response back. All calls were preceded by the distribution of all final muskox survey reports four weeks prior to the phone consultation. In the case of Baker Lake and Whale Cove HTOs, both HTOs indicated that the reports were sufficient to finalize their decision to support the GN recommendations for status Quo for MX-13 (Central Kivalliq Muskox Subpopulation), and an increase in the TAH of the northern Kivalliq muskox subpopulation (MX- 10) from 90 to 95 muskox.

  • Nunavut – Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay Government Of
    Nunavut – Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay Government of Nunavut Employment Opportunity Registered Midwives Casual Positions Rankin Inlet is a community on the Western shore of Hudson Bay in the central Arctic. It has a population of 2,800 people. With easy access to both the tundra and the bay, Rankin Inlet provides an excellent opportunity to explore Canada’s unique northern environment. We are host to amazing northern lights, incredible full moon evenings, lots of snow and renowned winter weather. To balance the long winter nights, spring and summer bring almost 24 hours of daylight, migrating birds, caribou and beautiful wildflowers. The Birthing Center has been providing antenatal, intrapartum and postpartum care to women from Rankin Inlet since 1993. Women from the surrounding 6 communities can also choose to give birth in Rankin Inlet, and midwives travel to other communities in the Kivalliq region to provide prenatal care. Consultation and transfer takes place with obstetricians at the St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg. Cambridge Bay, located on southern Victoria Island, is the regional center for the Kitikmeot communities. Its Inuktitut name means, “fair fishing place.” There is an abundance of wild life near the community, including musk oxen, and several roads providing great access for hiking and camping. Midwifery services began in September 2009 and the Birthing Centre opened February 2010, serving low risk women from around the Kitikmeot region. Midwives do outreach services to all the communities and consultation and transfer takes place with obstetricians at the Stanton Hospital in Yellowknife. Registered Midwives have regular clinic hours and a rotating on-call schedule.

  • Community Experiences of Mining in Baker Lake, Nunavut
    Community Experiences of Mining in Baker Lake, Nunavut by Kelsey Peterson A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Geography Guelph, Ontario, Canada ©Kelsey Peterson, April, 2012 ABSTRACT COMMUNITY EXPERIENCES OF MINING IN BAKER LAKE, NUNAVUT Kelsey Peterson Advisor: University of Guelph, 2012 Professor Ben Bradshaw With recent increases in mineral prices, the Canadian Arctic has experienced a dramatic upswing in mining development. With the development of the Meadowbank gold mine, the nearby Hamlet of Baker Lake, Nunavut is experiencing these changes firsthand. In response to an invitation from the Hamlet of Baker Lake, this research document residents’ experiences with the Meadowbank mine. These experiences are not felt homogeneously across the community; indeed, residents’ experiences with mining have been mixed. Beyond this core finding, the research suggests four further notable insights: employment has provided the opportunity for people to elevate themselves out of welfare/social assistance; education has become more common, but some students are leaving high school to pursue mine work; and local businesses are benefiting from mining contracts, but this is limited to those companies pre-existing the mine. Finally, varied individual experiences are in part generated by an individual’s context including personal context and choices. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the support and assistance of several key people. My advisor, Ben Bradshaw, has been instrumental in all stages of pre- research, research and writing. From accepting me to the program and connecting me to Baker Lake to funding my research and reading innumerable drafts of the written thesis, Professor Bradshaw has been critical to this research project.
