Thompson-Nicola Regional District Thompson-Nicola Regional District 1 2 Welcome to the Thompson-Nicola Regional District! The Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD) covers an area of approximately 45,279 square kilometres running from the former toll booth on the Coquihalla Highway, Highway 1 south of Lytton through to Big Bar Country west of Clinton, 70 Mile House, Clearwater, Wells Gray Park, Albreda north of Blue River on Highway 5, Chase on Highway 1, east of Westwold on Highway 97c and Douglas Lake Country. The population of the area is 128,475 (2011 Census). Regional districts are local government authorities unique to British Columbia that exist to meet certain local government service needs that neither municipalities nor the province are well-suited to address. Every regional district is made of municipalities (member municipalities) and unincorporated areas (electoral areas). Member municipalities and electoral areas work together to enable regional districts to fulfill their primary purposes, to: · Provide services such as community planning, solid waste management, water and sewer, 911, fire protection, and regulatory services in the region · Manage administration functions, for example: 1. Borrowing from the Municipal Finance Authority, the central borrowing agency for municipalities and regional districts in British Columbia, and 2. Raising capital funds for hospital facilities in regional district boundaries in the role of a Regional Hospital Districts, · Provide the political and administrative frameworks necessary for member municipalities and electoral areas to collaborate in the provision of regional and sub-regional services. At present, the Thompson-Nicola Regional District has 25 Directors, comprised of 10 Electoral Area Directors and 15 Directors representing member municipalities. Each Electoral Area Director appoints an alternate to provide voting representation at Board and Committee meetings in their absence.

  • The Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality!
    Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality & Area 1 2 Welcome to the Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality! Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality is one of British Columbia’s newest municipalities. We were incorporated in June 2010. We are one of British Columbia’s premier mountain resort destinations. With some 340,000 skier visits during the popular winter season and some 35,000 room night summer visits, the municipality supports Tourism Sun Peaks, the community’s marketing and promotion association who sell Sun Peaks Resort to national and international markets. Municipal support has been primarily funding for the non-winter attractions, the summer concerts and events aimed at expanding summer visits to the resort. The municipality’s initial focus is ‘community building’. In addition to traditional community services, local education has been the first priority for community services. With some 45 students in the elementary grades and nearly 20 students in the senior grades, we have grown considerably from our first year with a total of 22 students. We are presently making improvements to our local parks such as the playfield and tennis courts. Plans are well underway to improving the ice skating rink with full NHL sized ice surface and boards. Hopefully, an ice- making plant will be added in the near future. Planning is also underway for future soccer and baseball fields, fitness trails and a new school location. Planning is also underway for local health and medical services. We truly believe that our goal to be one of Canada’s best mountain resorts is directly related to the strength and spirit of our community.

  • Cataloguing in Situ Protection of Genetic Resources for Major Commercial Forest Trees in British Columbia
    Cataloguing in situ protection of genetic resources for major commercial forest trees in British Columbia a,* a b A. Hamann , S. N. Aitken , A. D. Yanchuk Extended manuscript, cite as: Conference Proceedings, Dynamics and Conservation of Genetic Diversity in Forest nd th Ecosystems, Strassbourg, December 2 to 5 , 2002. Forest Ecology and Management (special issue) 197: 295-305. _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract Loss of genetic diversity can be due to a variety of causes and might take place unnoticed even in widespread and frequent species. In situ reserves can be a very efficient method of protecting genetic diversity in tree species if they are sufficiently large to sustain adequate populations and spatially well distributed to protect populations adapted to a range of environmental conditions. We use a geographical information system (GIS) based approach to assess the level of in situ protection using forest inventory data. Recently revised maps of seed planning units used for management of genetic resources for 11 major commercial conifer species reflect geographic variation as observed in genetic tests. On this basis we investigate how well populations are represented in protected areas. Due to a systematic expansion of protected areas in the 1990s, it appears that conifer genetic resources are now well represented in protected areas. In this study we identify the remaining gaps for in situ protection and discuss implications for genetic resource management. Further, we evaluate protected areas for their importance with respect to gene conservation, and determine whether ground truthing is necessary to confirm that populations in protected areas are sufficiently large. Keywords: gene conservation, conifers, gap analysis, GIS, British Columbia _________________________________________________________________________________ ab1.
