    SUBMISSION TO THE NUNAVUT WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT BOARD FOR Information: X Decision: Issue: South Baffin Island Caribou Abundance Survey, 2012 and Proposed Management Recommendations Background: Caribou are a critical component of the boreal and arctic ecosystems. They are culturally significant to local communities and provide an important source of food. In some areas, there is still uncertainty on population trends because of the lack of scientific information due to difficult logistics and remoteness. This is particularly true for Baffin Island, where three sub-populations of Barrenground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) are hypothesized, though little is known about their abundance and trends over time (Ferguson and Gauthier 1992). In the past 60 years, only discrete portions of their range have been surveyed and no robust quantitative estimates at the sub-population level were ever derived. For over a decade Inuit from communities on northern Baffin Island, and more recently from across the entire island, have reported declines in caribou numbers, although no quantitative estimates are available. In total 10 communities, representing half of all Nunavummiut, traditionally or currently harvest Baffin Island caribou. At the same time, climate change, including increased arctic temperatures and precipitation, and anthropogenic activities connected to mineral exploration and mining are potentially negatively impacting caribou and their range. Due to the risk of these cumulative negative effects, and the importance of these caribou to communities, the Department of Environment undertook, in 2012, a quantitative caribou abundance aerial survey of South Baffin Island with the support of the NWMB and co- management partners. This area represents the most abundant area of caribou on Baffin Island.

  • Problems with the Environmental Working Groups for the Mary River
    Problems with the environmental working groups for the Mary River mine Report to the Hamlet of Clyde River and Nangmautaq Hunters and Trappers Association January 5, 2021 Dr. Warren Bernauer (Department of Environment and Geography, University of Manitoba) Dr. Glen Hostetler (Natural Resources Institute, University of Manitoba) Rowan Harris (BSc, University of British Columbia) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Baffinland’s Mary River mine uses a flexible approach to mitigating environmental effects. The mitigation measures are not set in stone in the NIRB project certificate. Instead, Baffinland is required to regularly update its management plans, based on advice from working groups. The members of these working groups include Baffinland, government authorities, Inuit organizations, and the Miitimatalik HTO. In some cases, non-government organizations participate as observers. For example, the Marine Environment Working Group (MEWG) includes Baffinland, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Parks Canada, the Qikiqtani Inuit Association, and the Mittimatalik HTO. World Wildlife Fund and Oceans North are observers to the MEWG. The Terrestrial Environment Working Group (TEWG) includes the Government of Nunavut, QIA, and Mittimatalik HTO. When these groups were proposed, they were presented as a way to minimize the negative effects of the Mary River mine. Communities were told they could use the working groups to impose stricter mitigation measures if the mine ended up having more serious environmental impacts than expected. In other words, these working groups were supposed to provide the opportunity for adaptive management. Adaptive management is useful in situations where there is uncertainty about a project’s environmental impacts and the effectiveness of mitigation measures. It requires careful monitoring so participants can learn about the environmental impacts that are actually happening and if environmental management plans are successful in avoiding significant effects.

They are regularly updated at www.jeppesen.com/marinealerts/ Date: October 10 , 2012 Subject: Removal of Canadian charts from C-MAP by Jeppesen products (see Table 1 for a detailed list of charts removed) Affected Products: C-MAP NT, C-MAP NT+, C-MAP (iOS) , C-MAP MAX, C-MAP MAX Pro, C-MAP 4D , C-MAP 4D EMBEDDED, C-MAP MAX EMBEDDED, C-MAP WORLDFOLIO (Passport Charts), C-MAP by Jeppesen MM3D (see Table 2 at the end of this document for a detailed list of affected products) Jeppesen would like to inform its customers operating in Canadian waters that per contractual requirements with the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS), Jeppesen has removed select charts from its products which were derived from official CHS paper charts. The Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) considers these charts inadequate for conversion to digital format, and for use in digital navigation systems (including GPS Chart Plotters). To minimize the impact of this change, areas where charts were removed have been covered with smaller scale charts, whenever possible. As a consequence of removing these charts, Jeppesen has discontinued a number of cartridge codes (see the list of affected cartridges below). Jeppesen customers in possession of the following cartridges won’t be able to update their products until further notice : C-MAP NT+: M-NA-C126.31, M-NA-C152.31, M-NA-C176.31, M-NA-C178.31, M-NA-C179.31, M-NA-C209.31, M-NA-C210.31, M-NA-C217.31, M-NA-C218.31, M-NA-C219.31, M-NA-C221.31, M-NA-C222.31, M-NA-C250.31 C-MAP MAX: M-NA-M048.21, M-NA-M176.21, M-NA-M178.21, M-NA-M179.21, M-NA-M209.21, M-NA-M210.21, M-NA-M217.21, M-NA-M218.21, M-NA-M219.21, M-NA-M250.21, M-NA- M330.21 C-MAP 4D: M-NA-D048.08, M-NA-D176.08, M-NA-D178.08, M-NA-D179.08, M-NA-D209.08, M- NA-D210.08, M-NA-D217.08, M-NA-D218.08, M-NA-D219.08, M-NA-D250.08, M-NA-D330.08 iOS: M-NA-I048.08 Jeppesen will continue to work with CHS to provide high quality chart coverage as soon as possible.

  • Baffinland Provides Update on Mary River Blockades
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Baffinland Provides Update on Mary River Blockades Mary River, NU, February 8, 2021 – The protest at Baffinland Iron Mines Corporation’s (“Baffinland”) Mary River Project is ongoing. There are more than 700 men and women currently at the Mary River Project site in Nunavut who are impacted by the protestors’ blockading of the air strip and the tote road. The Mary River airstrip is currently closed to all regularly scheduled air traffic. Food and supply flights have been suspended, as well as employee and contractor transfers, search and rescue flights, and other North Baffin air traffic support services provided by the Mary River airstrip. Baffinland understands that requests have been made by the organizers to be recognized as a Designated Inuit Organization under the Nunavut Agreement and for a portion of the royalties payable by Baffinland under the Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement to be paid directly to them. Baffinland hears these requests, but has no right or ability to grant them. Baffinland personnel have had numerous meetings with organizers, both at the blockades and in Pond Inlet, imploring the protestors to relocate off the airstrip and allow runway maintenance to take place and flights to resume. So far these discussions have not yielded any progress. On the evening of February 4, 2021, a group of protestors erected two blockades at the Mary River Project, one on the airstrip and one on a section of the tote road. To ensure the safety of every employee, contractor and protestor on site, the majority of operational activities have been suspended until such time as it is considered safe for them to resume.
