The 2012 RPIC Federal Contaminated Sites National Workshop RPIC FCS NATIONAL WORKSHOP WELCOME WELCOME TO THE 2012 RPIC FEDERAL CONTAMINATED SITES NATIONAL WORKSHOP On behalf of the Real Property Institute of Canada (RPIC) and the Workshop Organizing Committee, we are really pleased to welcome all delegates, exhibitors and event partners to the fourth RPIC Federal Contaminated Sites National Workshop being held at the Allstream Center in Toronto. Through the hard work and dedication of the Organizing Committee and The Willow Group, we have again assembled a high quality program that we hope you will find stimulating and informative. Since the early 1990’s, federal environmental specialists have worked to develop a nation-wide strategy to address federal contaminated sites. The combination of the government’s 2004 commitment of long-term funding and the establishment of the Federal Contaminated Sites Action Plan (FCSAP) program has made it possible for federal custodians and the environmental industry to undertake a collaborative effort for effective and responsible management of federal contaminated sites. The first three National Workshops, held in Ottawa in March 2006, in Vancouver in April 2008 and in Montreal in May 2010, provided a unique forum for federal public servants engaged in environmental management and remediation, industry representatives and academics to share experiences and learn from one another. Building on this foundation, the 2012 plenary sessions, poster displays, trade show and numerous networking opportunities provide a venue to discuss technical, scientific and management strategies for addressing federal sites with colleagues from across the country, and allow for the building of partnerships that are critical to our collective success. Our program begins with the popular pre-workshop professional development day which offers intensive sessions for those seeking a more in- depth look at environmental due diligence, environmental statistics, ecological risk assessment guidance, cost estimation and cost management, managing aquatic contaminated sites, selection of environmental quality guidelines, assessment validation and site closure or at stakeholder engagement including aboriginal cultural awareness and social media. A site tour is also offered that day to visit a major project dealing with contaminated radioactive material. The next two days of the Workshop will feature concurrent streams covering the topics of managing environmental projects, remediation case studies, sustainable remediation, human and ecological risk assessment, risk management, site management objectives and guidance, innovative assessment, and innovative remediation. This will be followed by a plenary session on Thursday morning showcasing the achievements of the FCSAP program and a site tour in the afternoon providing delegates with an opportunity to see remedial technologies and site management strategies in action in the Toronto area. Our technical program will be complemented by a keynote presenter roster that includes: Dr. Leonard Ritter, University of Guelph; David Cushman, Conestoga-Rovers and Associates; Ronald W. Brecher, MTE Consultants Inc., and Trevor Smith Diggins, SmithDiggins.com; and, Jeff Westeinde, Windmill Development Group. Our special thanks go out to the 2012 Organizing and Technical Review Committees for the time and effort taken to review and select papers and to the staff of The Willow Group, without whom it would have been impossible to hold a Workshop of this size and scope. We look forward to meeting you at the Workshop and hope that our program will provide you with the tools and information you require as you undertake the challenges of addressing federal contaminated sites.

  • Tourism Resource Analysis Report Includes an Analysis of Visual Quality and THLB Data As It Specifically Impacts the Tourism Resource
    Analysis Report Tourism Prepared by North Coast Government Technical Team Executive Summary Tourism is a growing industry in the North Coast, provincially; and indeed tourism is recognized as having significant growth potential around the world. With its spectacular scenery, rich cultural history, and diversity of landforms, the North Coast has the attributes and appeal to draw visitors seeking wilderness and adventure experiences from around the world. Over 2 million travellers visited Northwest B.C. in 1995/6 generating some $425 million in revenues. Eco-tourism and adventure travel (such as wildlife viewing and kayaking) are among the fastest-growing segments of the tourism industry; averaging 10-12% growth per year. In 2000 there were over 1100 Adventure Tourism establishments in British Columbia. The analysis is presented in two parts. Part 1 presents summarized information on the following key components of tourism in North Coast (existing and potential): Visual Quality, Fishing, Hunting and Guide-Outfitting, Kayaking, Wildlife Viewing, Small Boating, Touring, Cruise Ships and Cultural/Heritage Tourism. Part 2 provides an analysis of the visually sensitive areas along the coastline, in comparison with key tourism components identified in the recent tourism opportunity study and also in comparison with other resource values such as visual quality objectives and the timber harvesting landbase. In addition, this part of the report contains a list of fishing guide rod days by lake/stream for the past 10 years. The North Coast Tourism Opportunity Study identified 140 tourism operators currently in the North Coast. The Inside Passage and Highway 16 Corridor have particularly high visual values.

  • 2.0 PARTICIPANTS in ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 2.1 Potentially Affected and Interested Stakeholders Rainy River Resources
    2.0 PARTICIPANTS IN ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 2.1 Potentially Affected and Interested Stakeholders Rainy River Resources (RRR) has informed and involved the stakeholders in a variety of ways (Appendix D). The focus of early consultation was to introduce RRR, to inform citizens of the status of the exploration and potential mining-related activities, and to provide information regarding future consultation and engagement opportunities. Consultation activities then focused on gathering input for the Provincial and Federal Environmental Assessment (EA) process, and engaging stakeholders in the environmental baseline data collection as appropriate. Subsequent engagement was conducted to support the EA process and obtain feedback on the Rainy River Project (RRP) design and environmental mitigation strategies. The main stakeholders involved to date in the RRP include those with a direct interest in the RRP, and those who provided data for baseline environmental reports such as Municipal and Provincial government department representatives, community–based service providers, economic development agencies and other similar groups. The Provincial and Federal government representatives have been actively involved in the EA process to date. The range of stakeholders is expected to grow and will continue to evolve throughout RRP development to reflect varying levels of interest and opportunities over time. Stakeholders engaged by RRR to date include: Business, Community Groups and Environmental Organizations Ainsworth Lumber; Borderland Snowmobile

  • INUIT CARIBOU HARVESTING on SOUTHERN BAFFIN ISLAND By
    Tuktu and Environmental Change: INUIT CARIBOU HARVESTING ON SOUTHERN BAFFIN ISLAND By: Knut Tjensvoll Kitching A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of M.A. in Geography Department of Geography McGill University Montreal (Quebec) Canada Oct 2016 © 2016 Knut Tjensvoll Kitching 2 Abstract: Up to this point there has been relatively little research that has examined human- caribou interactions in the context of multiple natural and human stresses. Previously the focus of management studies has been on the co-management structures and their function. By addressing community interactions with caribou on Southern Baffin Island in the context of changing access, climate-driven caribou population changes, and evolving management frameworks and institutions, this study aims to develop a baseline understanding of the sustainability of caribou harvesting in the Iqaluit region. Drawing attention to caribou as a major source of country food, and a species that is sensitive to climate change impacts, the study will be a resource for land-use planners and policy-makers on the importance of preserving biodiversity and sustainable northern ecosystems from ecological, cultural and food security perspectives. The work helps to refocus attention on sustainable harvesting and co-management as a key adaptation and resiliency strategy in the face of a rapidly changing Arctic. Working closely with community members, and building upon over 6-years of previous research in Iqaluit, the thesis examines how hunters are adapting their behaviors to changing access to harvest areas and variations in caribou populations. This is considered against the backdrop of adaptive changes within the territorial institutions and organizations that are engaged in wildlife management.
