  • Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation 2017 Report
    Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation 2017 Report Prepared for: Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program, Peace Region 3333 22nd Ave. Prince George, BC V2N 1B4 June 2018 Azimuth Consulting Group Partnership 218-2902 West Broadway Vancouver BC, V6K 2G8 Project No. CO94394 Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation – 2017 Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP) – Peace Region carried out a strategic planning process in 2012-13 to review and identify program priorities in this region. Guided by a Strategic Planning Group (SPG), including First Nations, academia, BC Hydro and the FWCP-Peace Board, a Peace Basin Plan and six Action Plans were finalized in 2014. Objective 3a of the Reservoirs Action Plan is to “Improve understanding of mercury concentrations, contamination pathways and potential effects on human health and the broader ecosystem.” Initial efforts on this objective were commissioned by FWCP Peace in 2014 and identified the need to obtain updated information on fish mercury concentrations and consumption habits. In 2016, the Azimuth Consulting Group (Azimuth) team (including EDI Environmental Dynamics [EDI], Chu Cho Environmental [CCE] and Hagen and Associates) was awarded a multi-year contract to collect fish mercury data from the Parsnip, Peace, Finlay reaches of Williston and Dinosaur reservoirs and reference lakes (i.e., the Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Study). Results of this investigation will assess provide an updated fish mercury database for the Williston-Dinosaur watershed and understanding of how results compare with nearby reference lakes. The long-term goal is to ‘update’ the existing fish consumption advisory, in partnership with provincial health agencies.

Aboriginal Groups Comment Tracking Table Comment AuRico Response Raised By /Comment Source/Date Accidents and Malfunctions Effects of tunneling on The Mines Act (1996) Health, Safety, and Reclamation Code for Mines in British Columbia Takla Lake First Nation (TLFN) mountain stability (2008) requires terrain stability risks and soil types to be characterized. The Project Area • TLFN community meeting (Mar. 16, (including the northern entrance to the tunnel and portal) does not overlap with terrain 2011) classified as unstable (Terrain and Soil Baseline Study, AuRico 2015). As a result of underground tunneling activities associated with the Kemess Underground Project (the KUG Project, the Project), there may be changes in the groundwater table, resulting in drier soil. Additionally, through the dewatering of the tunnels, soil may become drier, which may become erodible and less stable. It is expected that measures related to erosion prevention and sediment control will adequately manage potential risks.

  • Salvelinus Confluentus) and Dolly Varden (S. Malma
    Molecular evidence of current and historical introgressive hybridization between bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) and Dolly Varden (S. malma) by ZOE REDENBACH B.Sc, University of British Columbia, 1997 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of Zoology) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2000 © Zoe Redenbach, 2000 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT Natural hybridization, once thought to be relatively rare, has been widely observed in both plants and animals. Studies of species that hybridize at low rates across wide ranges, however, are still relatively rare. Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) and bull trout (S. confluentus) have widely overlapping ranges and have been shown to hybridize at two localities. This thesis is a molecular analysis of Dolly Varden / bull trout hybridization over a range of spatial scales. Large-scale mtDNA phylogeography revealed that Dolly Varden survived the last glaciation in a previously unsuspected refuge south of the ice sheet, which resulted in continuous sympatry of a Dolly Varden refugial population with bull trout over the last 100,000 years.

  • Mercury Loss from Gold Rush Era Placer Mines in the Fraser Basin
    Mercury Loss from Gold Rush Era Placer Mines in the Fraser Basin by Tara Lamothe Hons. BSc. Biogeography, University of Toronto, 2004 Project Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Resource Management, Planning in the School of Resource and Environmental Management Faculty of Environment © Tara Lamothe 2020 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2020 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. ii Approval Name: Tara Lamothe Degree: Master of Resource Management, Planning Title: Mercury Loss from Gold Rush Era Placer Mines in the Fraser Basin Examining Committee: Chair: Jonathan Boron PhD Candidate Cliff Atleo Senior Supervisor Assistant Professor Frank Gobas 2nd Reader Professor Date Defended/Approved: January 18, 2020 iii Abstract Gold-rush era mercury loss at mine sites in the Fraser Basin was investigated. 109 soil and sediment samples were collected from suspected hotspots on 15 legacy placer mine sites and tested for total mercury. 89% of sites that had clearly discernable signs of mining had at least one test sample that exceeded all control samples taken during the study, suggesting that mercury use was widespread during B.C.’s Fraser and Cariboo gold rushes. An estimated 17,768 to 247,665 kg was lost in the Fraser Basin between 1858 and 1910, calculated by relating mercury loss to different records of gold extraction. Historical records show that 26,749 kg of mercury was shipped to B.C. from California between 1860 and 1883, and mercury imports into Canada between 1882 and 1899 exceeded expected mercury needs for gold amalgamation practices.

  • Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation 2016 – 2018 Final Summary Report
    Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation 2016 – 2018 Final Summary Report Prepared for: Fish & Wildlife Compensation Program, Peace Region 3333 22nd Ave. Prince George, BC V2N 1B4 September 2019 Azimuth Consulting Group Partnership 218-2902 West Broadway Vancouver BC, V6K 2G8 Project No. CO94394 Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation – 2016 – 2018 Summary Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background The Fish & Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP) recognizes that mercury concentrations of fish caught within the Williston and Dinosaur Watershed are a concern for local First Nations and stakeholders. Studies conducted in 1980 and 1988 first identified elevated fish mercury concentrations in Williston Reservoir, which led to the BC Ministry of Health issuing a fish consumption advisory in the 1990s that is still in place today. Few studies of the mercury status in Williston Reservoir have been conducted since implementation of the advisory. FWCP’s 2014 Reservoirs Action Plan identified mercury as a high-priority issue and defined objectives and specific actions to address this in the FWCP Peace Region. FWCP’s major goal is to improve our understanding of mercury in fish throughout the reservoir system and to provide this information to agencies responsible for advising the public on fish consumption. To that end, FWCP’s Peace Region Board selected Azimuth Consulting Group Partnership (Azimuth) through a public competitive bid process. Azimuth teamed with Chu Cho Environmental [CCE, Tsay Key Dene], Environmental Dynamics Inc. [EDI, Prince George] and Hagen and Associates [Prince George]) to conduct a multi-year (2016 to 2018) project to collect fish mercury information from the three major reaches of Williston Reservoir (Parsnip, Peace, Finlay), Dinosaur Reservoir and reference lakes (hereafter referred to as the “Williston-Dinosaur Watershed Fish Mercury Investigation1”).

The Joint Review Panel is please to submit its report for your consideration. Overall, the Panel has concluded that the Project in its current form would not be in the public interest. The Panel is of the view that the economic and social benefits provided by the Project, on balance, are outweighed by the risks of significant adverse environmental, social and cultural effects, some of which may not emerge until many years after mining operations cease. The Panel therefore recommends that the Project not be approved by your respective governments.
