Burch fonds Summary information Repository: University of British Columbia Library Rare Books and Special Collections Title: W.G. Burch fonds ID: RBSC-ARC-1085 Date: 1924-2011 (date of creation) Physical description: 1.1 m of textual records and other materials Dates of creation, revision and deletion: Administrative history / Biographical sketch Note William Gerald Burch, known as Gerry Burch, was born on August 2, 1923. The son of a forest ranger, he grew up in Moyie, BC, and Trail, BC. After his secondary education, he went to study forestry at the University of British Columbia. His studies were interrupted by conscription into the navy in 1942, when he served as a sub-lieutenant on HMCS Eyebright. In 1945, he was demobilized and returned to his studies at UBC. He spent his university summers working for British Columbia Forest Products, which became his employer for most of his career. Burch was appointed Chief Forester in 1968, and Vice President of Timberlands and Forestry in 1976. He was also active in professional associations, serving for a time as President of the Canadian Institute of Forestry. Burch has been awarded with such distinctions as the Distinguished Forester Award and the Achievement Award from the Canadian Institute of Forestry. After retirement from BC Forest Products in 1988, Burch remained active in forestry as a consultant for Stewart & Ewing Ltd., as an adjunct faculty member at UBC in the faculty of forestry, and by collecting research, writing papers and giving speeches. Burch was the director of The Working Forest of British Columbia, a book published by I.K. Barber in 1995. Burch’s autobiography, Still Counting the Rings, was published in 2006. Custodial history Except for the materials in the Working Forest series, the fonds was donated in several accruals to the Vancouver City Archives between 2001 and 2005 by W.G. Burch, and subsequently transferred to Rare Books and Special Collections at the UBC Library in 2006. The materials in the Working Forest series were held by the Forest Alliance until they were transferred to Vancouver City Archives by Burch in 2001. They were included with the transfer of the rest of the W. G. Burch fonds to Rare Books and Special Collections at the UBC Library in 2006. University of British Columbia Library Rare Books and Special Collections Page 3 RBSC-ARC-1085 W.G. Burch fonds Scope and content Many of the records in this fonds were used in relation to Burch’s autobiography, and therefore pertain to his childhood, education, navy service, and largely to his career as a forester. These records include genealogical research materials, photographs, educational certificates, navy service records, and textual documentation of his career and interests in forestry. It also reflects other projects undertaken by Burch, such as the Working Forest publication, a history of South Vancouver Island, as well as papers, research, correspondence, and speeches. The fonds is divided into four series: Biographical materials; Papers, speeches and correspondence; British Columbia Forest Products; South Vancouver Island history; and The Working Forest project.

  • Fish 2002 Tec Doc Draft3
    BRITISH COLUMBIA MINISTRY OF WATER, LAND AND AIR PROTECTION - 2002 Environmental Indicator: Fish in British Columbia Primary Indicator: Conservation status of Steelhead Trout stocks rated as healthy, of conservation concern, and of extreme conservation concern. Selection of the Indicator: The conservation status of Steelhead Trout stocks is a state or condition indicator. It provides a direct measure of the condition of British Columbia’s Steelhead stocks. Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are highly valued by recreational anglers and play a locally important role in First Nations ceremonial, social and food fisheries. Because Steelhead Trout use both freshwater and marine ecosystems at different periods in their life cycle, it is difficult to separate effects of freshwater and marine habitat quality and freshwater and marine harvest mortality. Recent delcines, however, in southern stocks have been attributed to environmental change, rather than over-fishing because many of these stocks are not significantly harvested by sport or commercial fisheries. With respect to conseration risk, if a stock is over fished, it is designated as being of ‘conservation concern’. The term ‘extreme conservation concern’ is applied to stock if there is a probablity that the stock could be extirpated. Data and Sources: Table 1.

The Commission’s core roles include reviewing and assessing applications for industry activity, consulting with First Nations, ensuring industry complies with provincial legislation and cooperating with partner agencies. The public interest is protected through the objectives of ensuring public safety, protecting the environment, conserving petroleum resources and ensuring equitable participation in production. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Page 2 Processes and Requirements Page 3 Results Page 4 Summary Page 7 Appendix A Page 8 Appendix B Page 9 Appendix C Page 12 1 BC Oil and Gas Commission Quarterly Report on Short-Term Water Approvals and Use Introduction The Oil and Gas Activities Act (OGAA) provides authority to the BC Oil and Gas Commission (Commission) to issue short-term water use approvals under Section 8 of the Water Act to manage short-term water use by the oil and gas industry. Approvals under Section 8 of the Water Act authorize the diversion and use of water for a term not exceeding 12 months. This report details the Commission’s responsibilities and authorities under Section 8 of the Water Act; it does not include the diversion and use of water approved by other agencies (such as the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, which has responsibility for water licensing) or for purposes other than oil and gas activities.

  • West Moberly First Nations
    WEST MOBERLY FIRST NATIONS In reply I have to inform you that this information cannot be located in the files of the Department and it is possible that the documents may be in the Lesser Slave Lake Agency. In letters dated 21st March and 30th March 1914, Indian Agent H. Laird was instructed to admit these bands into treaty when making the annuity payments that year and the first pay list shows Old Man, No.1, as the Chief, and Migsedlean, No.2, and Dogie, No.3, as Headmen of the Hudson’s Hope Band and William Desjarlais, No. 1, as Headman of the Moberly Lake (Saulteaux) band. It is presumed that these Indians signed the treaty for their respective bands, the number admitted in the Hudson’s Hope Band being 116 and in the Saulteaux Band 34” (Parc 1/1 11-5 1933-65). Following the March adhesion at Hudson’s Hope, MacRae noted: “In the summer of 1914, Indian Reserve #172, totalling about 4 000 acres was surveyed... by Donald F. Robertson some 13 kilometres north of the present site of Fort. St. John. For the Beaver at Halfway River, 45 kilometres north of Hudson’s Hope, Robertson also marked out Reserve #168, totalling 9 893 acres. Here he reported that “the land was best suited for grazing,” and that “the hunting is good in the mountains nearby and at some seasons the trout are plentiful in Halfway River. These Indians live by hunting and fishing. At the same time, Reserve #168A, totalling 5 025 acres, was surveyed at the west end of Moberly Lake” (Leonard 1995:81).

  • Ungulate Winter Range Species Accounts Specific to the Peace River
    UNGULATE WINTER RANGE SPECIES ACCOUNTS SPECIFIC TO THE PEACE RIVER REGION 2003 Prepared By: Alicia D. Goddard Woods Environmental Consulting SS#2 Site 13 Comp 17 Fort St. John, BC V1J 4M7 For: Ministry Water, Land and Air Protection Ecosystem Section Rm. 400-10003-110 Avenue Fort St. John, BC V1J 6M7 March 2003 Ungulate Winter Range in the Peace Region 2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this project was to collect and describe winter habitat use for ungulates within the Peace region. Literature and annecdotal information was collected from local biologists and species experts in an attempt to develop stand-alone species accounts for ungulates in the Peace region. In gathering habitat use information, it was determined that the primary source of information pertaining to habitat use is derived from provincial species standards. For many species, these provincial species accounts do not apply to animals and their habitat use within the Peace region. This report outlines how habitat use is different from provincial standards, and describes habitat use specific to the Peace region. Very little reliable, accurate scientific data is available for ungulate winter habitat use in the Peace region. Although numerous projects are currently proceeding, more research projects need to be initiated to produce specific, reliable scienctific data pertaining to winter habitat use by ungulates in the Peace region.
