  • Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes
    Zawadzka Temagami Area Rock Art 159 Beyond the Sacred: Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes Dagmara Zawadzka The rock art of the Temagami area in northeastern Ontario represents one of the largest concentrations of this form of visual expression on the Canadian Shield. Created by Algonquian-speaking peoples, it is an inextricable part of their cultural landscape. An analysis of the distribution of 40 pictograph sites in relation to traditional routes known as nastawgan has revealed that an overwhelming majority are located on these routes, as well as near narrows, portages, or route intersections. Their location seems to point to their role in the navigation of the landscape. It is argued that rock art acted as a wayfinding landmark; as a marker of places linked to travel rituals; and, ultimately, as a sign of human occupation in the landscape. The tangible and intangible resources within which rock art is steeped demonstrate the relationships that exist among people, places, and the cultural landscape, and they point to the importance of this form of visual expression.

  • Marter Township (Blanche River) Hydroelectric Generating Station Project
    DRAFT FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES Environmental Report Marter Township (Blanche River) Hydroelectric Generating Station Project Marter Township Environmental Report August 2012 FOREWORD Xeneca Power Development Inc. (Xeneca) is pleased to provide you a Draft Environmental Report for the proposed Marter Township Hydroelectric Generating Station on the Blanche River. This document represents the culmination of an important and considerable joint effort between Xeneca, regulatory agencies, local residents and public stakeholders and Aboriginal communities. This Draft report is being provided to key regulatory agencies for a thirty day review period which is scheduled to end on October 2, 2012. Xeneca welcomes agency review comments and will incorporate them as best possible into the Final Environmental Report to be issued for the formal thirty day public and agency review as per the Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for Waterpower Projects. Submission of this Draft report under the Waterpower Class EA represents a significant milestone in our obligations to the Province of Ontario under the Feed-In-Tariff (FIT) contract issued to Xeneca for this undertaking. In order to initiate construction, Xeneca is required to successfully satisfy the requirements of the Class EA, and, subsequently, obtain all applicable provincial and federal regulatory permits and approvals, receive approval for final engineering design, obtain plans and specification approval. The terms of Xeneca’s FIT contract (issued in April 2010) require that the facility be constructed and commissioned no later than October 2015. Xeneca has undertaken a multitude of investigations and studies of the project site spanning a three year period, (from 2010 to 2012) including natural habitat studies, archaeological investigations, water quality and fish tissue sampling, geotechnical studies, public and agency consultation, and engagement with Aboriginal communities; the timeline under the FIT contract is nearing the 50% marker.
