  • Site Selection and Design Recommendations for Williston Reservoir Tributary Fish Access Mitigation Trial, Northern British Columbia
    Peace Project Water Use Plan Williston Reservoir Trial Tributaries Site Selection Report Reference: GMSWORKS-19 Site Selection and Design Recommendations for Williston Reservoir Tributary Fish Access Mitigation Trial, Northern British Columbia Study Period: 2009 Synergy Applied Ecology January 2010 Normal reservoir operations have the potential to effectively disconnect tributaries from the reservoir and limit fish migration during the low water drawdown period, when streamflow into the reservoir may become shallow and braided across the exposed reservoir floodplain or large woody debris accumulates. This report builds on previous recommendations and proposes an experimental mitigation trial using proven techniques to improve fish access to affected tributary systems. Following aerial reconnaissance, 9 tributary watercourses were assessed for degree of impact on fish access and potential for successful mitigation. Based on biophysical, archaeological and environmental assessments, we selected Six Mile Creek and Chichouyenily Creek as the 2 top-ranked sites for tributary access mitigation trials. We provide mitigation trial design recommendations and considerations for regulatory requirements and performance monitoring. The design recommendations are widely applied stream mitigation techniques that can be implemented at a relatively small scale to test their feasibility and effectiveness in trial projects while moving towards mitigation of more complex sites using an adaptive management approach.

  • Assessing Cumulative Impa Wide-Ranging Species Acro Peace
    Assessing Cumulative Impacts to Wide -Ranging Species Across the Peace Break Region of Northeastern British Columbia Prepared by: Clayton Apps, PhD, RPBio Aspen Wildlife Research Inc. For and in collaboration with: FINAL REPORT Version 3.0 June 2013 This report is formatted for double-sided printing PREFACE This report was prepared under the auspices of the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y). The impetus for the assessment herein was concern regarding contribution of the Site-C dam and hydro-electric development on the Peace River toward adverse regional cumulative effects. Because the underlying mandate of Y2Y pertains to advocacy for ecological connectivity from local to continental scales, my focus in this assessment has been on wide-ranging species potentially sensitive to broad-scale population fragmentation. For these species, assessing cumulative impacts specific to any one development must be considered in the context of regional populations and underlying habitat conditions and influential human activities. Hence, it is in the context of regional- scale assessment that this report considers the impacts of the Site-C development and its constraints to future conservation opportunities. While this report may be submitted by Y2Y for consideration in the environmental assessment process for the Site-C development, it is also intended to inform regional conservation planning through a wider audience that includes resource managers, resource stakeholders, private land stewards, environmental advocates, the general public, and other researchers.

The proposed conditions in this Water Use Plan, for the operation of BC Hydro’s Peace hydroelectric facilities, reflect the December 2003 consensus recommendations of the Peace Water Use Planning Committee. BC Hydro thanks all those who participated in the process that led to the production of this Water Use Plan for their effort and dedication. The proposed conditions for the operation of BC Hydro’s facilities will not come into effect until implemented under the British Columbia Water Act.

Minister of the Environment Minister of Environment Room 458, Confederation Building PO Box 9047 – Stn Prov Govt Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0A6 Room 112 – Parliament Buildings Victoria, BC, V8W 9E2 Dear Ministers: In accordance with the mandate issued on May 19, 2005, the Joint Review Panel has completed its environmental assessment of the Kemess North Copper-Gold Mine Project. 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.

  • Forest Development, First Nations and Distributive Justice in Mackenzie
    FOREST DEVELOPMENT, FIRST NATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIVE JUSTICE IN MACKENZIE FOREST DISTRICT by Stephen Walter Dodds B.A., University of Victoria, 1992 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of Forestry) We accept this thesis as conforming to the reqvnredi^and^rd THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 1999 © Stephen Walter Dodds, 1999 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. 1 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 The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This thesis examines the emotionally charged relationship between First Nation representatives and the licensee and government stewards of forest development. It provides an overview of the Mackenzie Forest District, its communities, its First Nations, and its stewards. It then discusses the institutional arrangements that constitute the planning and decision-making milieu. Next it provides an historical and a local overview of issues and events that concern First Nation representatives. Turning to principles of distributive justice (elements of political theory that prescribe how resources, opportunity, and power should be distributed among persons) it explains Ronald Dworkin's (1978 & 1985) principle of equal concern and respect, and Joseph Raz's (1986) principle of autonomy.

The FWCP Streams Action Plan (FWCP 2014) identifies two over-arching strategic objectives for the conservation and enhancement of Arctic Grayling and other priority fish species in the upper Peace Basin: 1. Maintain or improve the conservation status of Arctic Grayling populations. 2. Maintain or improve the integrity and productivity of Arctic Grayling habitats. This study was initiated by FWCP to evaluate the existing knowledge base relative to these strategic objectives, and fulfill objective 1b-1 of the Streams Action Plan: Review existing information (including provincial management plan), summarize status and trends of Arctic Graying and its habitats, undertake actions that are within the FWCP scope and lead directly to the development of conservation and enhancement actions, and develop a cost- effective monitoring program to assess status and trends.
