Assessing the Legacy of the Pine Point Mine: Post ASSESSING THE LEGACY OF THE PINE POINT MINE: POST-INDUSTRIAL LAND COVER AND LAND USE by © Emma LeClerc A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography Memorial University of Newfoundland December 2015 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador ABSTRACT While mining is a major component of the northern Canadian economy, including the contemporary mixed economy of Aboriginal communities, it often leaves legacies of environmental and economic transformation that persist after closure. The legacies of historical mines in northern Canada challenge industry claims of sustainability. This thesis addresses how industrial mineral development and closure continue to affect local environments and economies after abandonment. The abandoned Pine Point mine in the Northwest Territories provides a case study for explaining the ongoing relationships among land cover, land use, and the post- industrial landscape. Drawing from landscape ecology and micropolitical ecology, I adopt an interdisciplinary approach to examine environmental and socioeconomic changes in the wake of industrial development and closure at Pine Point. The results show that passive reclamation is not sufficient for restoring ecological function in a subarctic environment. Land use, however, persists as land users adapt to the post-industrial landscape despite grave concern about its environmental condition. If mining is to be considered sustainable, decommissioning and reclamation must explicitly account for long-term environmental transformation as well as ongoing post-industrial land use, particularly in Aboriginal contexts. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to gratefully acknowledge the community of Fort Resolution, especially the individuals who participated in the map-based interviews. The participants were unfailingly generous with their time and knowledge, and I feel privileged to have worked with so many wonderful people. Many thanks to Rosy Bjornson for taking me under her wing, showing me around the community, and helping me feel welcome. To Chaslyn, Bridgette, and Lincon McKay: may you always dream big and smile bigger! My heartfelt thanks also go to Patrick Simon, Rabbit Simon, Lloyd Cardinal, Angus and Dorothy Beaulieu, Christine and Stan Fabian, Gord Beaulieu, DKFN Chief Louis Balsillie, and FRMC President Garey Bailey. To everyone in the warm and welcoming community of Fort Resolution, Marsi Cho! Thanks to my supervisory committee, Dr. Arn Keeling, Dr. Yolanda Wiersma, and Dr. John Sandlos, for their support, guidance, interminable patience, and invaluable feedback. Special thanks to fellow graduate students Vincent Lecours, Robert Way, and Scott Hatcher for patiently fielding my GIS and remote sensing questions, and Tara Cater for thoughtful discussions about the intellectual possibilities and ethical perils of community-based research. Thanks to Peter Armitage and Steve Kilburn for advice on the map biography method, and to Quinn Dekking for preliminary georeferencing and digitizing land use features. I am grateful to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada for funding the Abandoned Mines in Northern Canada Project, whose financial support made this research possible. Finally, I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to my parents and sisters for their unwavering love and support as I uprooted myself (again) and grew new roots in the rocky soils of Newfoundland. iii

    Hydrological Analysis for Great Slave Lake 2020 Dec 15, 2020 ECCC-led Report with modifications by the Government of the Northwest Territories ECCC/GNWT Report on 2020 Water Levels 1 ECCC/GNWT Report on 2020 Water Levels 1. Executive Summary At the request of the Deputy Minister of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources of the Government of the NWT (GNWT) and after consultation with the Governments of Alberta and British Columbia, a decision was made by the Associate Deputy Minister of Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) to create a technical working group to better understand and explain the high-water levels on Great Slave Lake (GSL) in the summer and fall of 2020, as well as the potential for the duration of these high waters. There is a need to understand attribution of the high-water levels so that contributing conditions are understood and that causality is evidence-based. A technical working group was formed on September 15, 2020 to gather information from the ECCC networks, models and production systems that are readily available. This group was comprised of staff from ECCC, and the Governments of Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories, as well as BC Hydro. The current status of the science-based efforts is summarized below. Further to this work, we will collectively develop an agreed upon understanding of the system and communicate these findings between partners. As stated below, we are looking at a suite of methods to gain an understanding of the high water levels on Great Slave Lake this year. Findings to date show the following: 1.

  • 03 Thor Lake Project DAR Description of Local Communities and Socio-Economic Conditions
    May 2011 344 3.0 DESCRIPTION OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITIONS 3.1 LAND USE Avalon‘s Nechalacho Mine site is located at Thor Lake in the Mackenzie Mining District of the Northwest Territories, within the North Slave Region, about 5 km north of the Hearne Channel of Great Slave Lake and approximately 100 km southeast of the City of Yellowknife (Figure 3.1-1). The proposed TLP has two site components: an underground mine and flotation plant (Nechalacho Mine and Flotation Plant site) at the Thor Lake Property; and a hydrometallurgical plant (Hydrometallurgical Plant site) at the brownfields site of the former Pine Point Mine. The former Pine Point Mine site is located 85 km east of Hay River, NWT and 102 km west of Fort Resolution on the south shore of Great Slave Lake, within the South Slave Region. This area comprises the largest brownfields site in the NWT, estimated at approximately 3,425 ha using digital image analysis, of which approximately 1,771 ha are located within the Hydrometallurgical Plant local study area. The two Project sites are within the Akaitcho Dene asserted traditional territory and are subject to the comprehensive land claim negotiation between the Akaitcho Dene First Nations (Yellowknives Dene First Nation (Dettah), Yellowknives Dene First Nation (N‘Dilo), Lutsel K‘e Dene First Nation, and Deninu Ku‘e First Nation) and the federal government. The Akaitcho Dene First Nations (ADFN), the Government of Canada, and the Government of the Northwest Territories are currently working to achieve a lands, resources and governance agreement (INAC 2007a).

  • Review of the Dominion Diamond Ekati Ulc Jay Project Offsetting Plan
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Central and Arctic Region Science Response 2018/029 REVIEW OF THE DOMINION DIAMOND EKATI ULC JAY PROJECT OFFSETTING PLAN, JANUARY 2018 Context Dominion Diamond Ekati ULC (Dominion or the Proponent) is expected to submit an application for a Fisheries Act authorization for the construction of a dyke within, and dewatering a portion of Lac du Sauvage, and diverting a portion of two streams around the pipe area to develop the Jay pipe mining operation (Jay Project). The Proponent has estimated the fish biomass (productivity) that will be lost during the life of the mine operation. To offset this loss, in consultation with Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Fisheries Protection Program (FPP) and local communities, the Proponent has proposed to conduct an egg stocking program for Inconnu (Stenodus leucichthys) in the Yellowknife River, NT. Dominion has described their proposed offsetting plan in the document “Jay Project Final Offsetting Plan, January 2018”. Within this report they present the rationale and describe the proposed offsetting project. On August 18, 2017, DFO Fisheries Management, in consultation with FPP and DFO Science, declined a License to Fish for Scientific Purposes (LFSP) application for an Inconnu stocking pilot program. It was during this process that FPP became aware of the ongoing DFO research projects in Great Slave Lake (GSL), more specifically on mixed-stock genetic fishery analysis of the Great Slave Lake Inconnu populations. The application was rejected for two reasons: (1) further information was required to determine if the pilot study and offsetting plan would interfere with current studies in the lake; and (2) the Slave River (Rapids of the Drowned in Fort Smith) is the proposed source location for eggs, however the Fort Smith Métis Council was not on the list of community engagement sessions in the LFSP.
