The Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy (CSCS) Is a Technical Document Produced by the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership Working Group
Note to Reader: The Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy (CSCS) is a technical document produced by the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership working group. The CSCS is not a policy statement of CRD Regional Parks, and strategy approval or commitment to implement any of the proposed strategies and actions is not implied by its distribution. For CRD Regional Parks, the intent of the CSCS is to inform decision-making, such as the development of the Island View Beach Regional Park Management Plan, preparation of workplans, and other park management processes. Cordova Shore CONSERVATION STRATEGY August 2010 Prepared for CRD Regional Parks, Tsawout First Nation, and Canadian Wildlife Service Prepared by: Nick Page Raincoast Applied Ecology Vancouver, BC Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy 1 SUMMARY The purpose of the Cordova Shore Conservation Strategy is to improve the management of ecosystems, plant, fish, and wildlife species, and human activities in the Cordova Shore through collaborative conservation actions. This includes actions to restore ecological processes, recover species at risk, reduce recreation impacts, improve access to cultural resources, and celebrate the shore’s unique character. This strategy was developed through the Cordova Shore Conservation Partnership. The partnership is an informal, collaborative initiative between Capital Regional District (CRD) Regional Parks, Tsawout First Nation, and the District of Central Saanich. It is supported by the Canadian Wildlife Service. Five main ecosystems make up the Cordova Shore: (1) marine ecosystems: beach, intertidal and shallow subtidal areas; (2) coastal wetland ecosystems: salt, brackish, and freshwater wetlands; (3) coastal sand ecosystems: sparsely‐vegetated sand spit (T̸IX̱EṈ) and stable and semi‐stable dunes; (4) rock outcrop ecosystems: sparsely‐vegetated rock and forested or shrub‐dominated; and (5) bluff ecosystems: unstable and forested sand bluffs. -

FNESS Strategic Plan
Strategic Plan 2013-2015 At a Glance FNESS evolved from the Society of Native Indian Fire Fighters of BC (SNIFF), which was established in 1986. SNIFF’s initial objectives were to help reduce the number of fire-related deaths on First Nations reserves, but it changed its emphasis to incorporate a greater spectrum of emergency services. In 1994, SNIFF changed its name to First Nations’ Emergency Services Society of BC to reflect the growing diversity of services it provides. Today our organization continues to gain recognition and trust within First Nations communities and within Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) and other organizations. This is reflected in both the growing demand of service requests from First Nations communities and the development of more government-sponsored programs with FNESS. r e v Ri k e s l A Inset 1 Tagish Lake Teslin 1059 Daylu Dena Atlin Lake 501 Taku River Tlingit r e v Liard Atlin Lake i R River ku 504 Dease River K Fort a e Nelson T r t 594 Ts'kw'aylaxw e c iv h R ik River 686 Bonaparte a se a 687 Skeetchestn e D Fort Nelson R i v e First Nations in 543 Fort Nelson Dease r 685 Ashcroft Lake Dease Lake 592 Xaxli'p British Columbia 593 T'it'q'et 544 Prophet River 591 Cayoose Creek 692 Oregon Jack Creek 682 Tahltan er 683 Iskut a Riv kw r s e M u iv R Finlay F R Scale ra e n iv s i er 610 Kwadacha k e i r t 0 75 150 300 Km S 694 Cook's Ferry Thutade R r Tatlatui Lake i e 609 Tsay Keh Dene v Iskut iv 547 Blueberry River e R Lake r 546 Halfway River 548 Doig River 698 Shackan Location -
