In British Columbia, the parks and protected areas, recreation sites, reserves and conservation reserves within the PDA and PEAA are managed under the Park Act, the Protected Areas of British Columbia Act, the Forest and Range Practices Act, the Forest Practices Code of British Columbia Act, the Forest Act, the Ecological Reserve Act, the Environment and Land Use Act and the Agricultural Land Commission Act. All parks, protected areas and recreation areas are managed for outdoor recreation and tourism, preservation and protection of natural heritage, scientific research and education, nonconsumptive outdoor recreation and the protection and maintenance of their biological diversity and natural environments. A number of restrictions on motor vehicle use and industrial and construction activities are in place within Forest Recreation Sites in British Columbia. Approval must be obtained from a designated forest official to engage in restricted activities. The following sections provide a summary of the proposed Burnie River Protected Area and the Monkman Provincial Park because these protected areas have special significance to the Project and Monkman Provincial Park is the only park within the PEAA. 8.1.1 Proposed Burnie River Protected Area, British Columbia A notable protected area of special relevance to the Project is the proposed Burnie River Protected Area in British Columbia. This proposed protected area was planned by provincial authorities in consultation with and consideration of the Project, making allowance for the RoW to pass through it. The proposed protected area is delineated under British Columbia’s Environment and Land Use Act and the approval process for the official designation status of the protected area is expected to be completed before the end of 2009, by an order in council (Schultz 2008, pers. comm.).

  • Wapiti River Water Management Plan Summary
    Wapiti River Water Management Plan Summary Wapiti River Water Management Plan Steering Committee February 2020 Summary The Wapiti River basin lies within the larger Smoky/Wapiti basin of the Peace River watershed. Of all basins in the Peace River watershed, the Wapiti basin has the highest concentration and diversity of human water withdrawals and municipal and industrial wastewater discharges. The Wapiti River Water Management Plan (the Plan) was developed to address concerns about water diversions from the Wapiti River, particularly during winter low-flow periods and the potential negative impacts to the aquatic environment. In response, a steering committee of local stakeholders including municipalities, Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation, industry, agriculture, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and the Mighty Peace Watershed Alliance (MPWA), supported by technical experts from Alberta Environment and Parks (AEP), was established. The steering committee initiated the development of a water management plan that includes a Water Conservation Objective (WCO) and management recommendations for the Wapiti River basin from the British Columbia border to its confluence with the Smoky River. A WCO is a limit to the volume of water that can be withdrawn from the Wapiti River, ensuring that water flow remains in the river system to meet ecological objectives. The Plan provides guidance and recommendations on balancing the needs of municipal water supply, industry uses, agriculture and other uses, while maintaining a healthy aquatic ecosystem in the Alberta portion of the Wapiti River basin. Wapiti River Water Management Plan | Summary 2 Purpose and Objectives of the Plan The Plan will be provided as a recommendation to AEP and if adopted, would form policy when making water allocation decisions under the Water Act, and where appropriate, under the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act by establishing a WCO for the Wapiti River.

  • Lessons from Three BC Communities
    Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses: Lessons from Three BC Communities by Dyan Dunsmoor-Farley B.Mus., University of British Columbia, 1990 M.A., Athabasca University, 2013 A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Interdisciplinary Studies © Dyan Leigh Dunsmoor-Farley, 2020, University of Victoria All rights reserved. This dissertation may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or by other means, without the permission of the author. Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses Supervisory Committee Dr. James Lawson, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Pamela Shaw, Co-Supervisor, (Adjunct, Faculty of Geography) Dr. Warren Magnusson, Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Richard Rajala, Outside Member (Department of History) ii Globalization’s Ruptures and Responses Abstract The global economy infuses every aspect of our day to day lives, from the clothes we wear, to the food we eat, to our political choices. And with its ability to “mutate, shudder and shatter” (Dicken et al), the unpredictable ruptures associated with the global economy elude our ability to grasp its impact and to govern its activities. So how, as citizens, do we imagine governing ourselves when ‘nobody appears to be in charge any longer’? How does our understanding of the state apparatuses– the legislation, regulations, policies –speak to people’s day to day experience in their communities? This research addresses two broad questions: how are communities responding to externally generated ruptures and how do they govern themselves in response? I propose that responding coherently to rupture events is inhibited by community members’ lack of awareness of the complex interrelationships of the constituent elements of the economy, and secondarily, a tendency to see the state as the primary site of governance.
