The Plan area’s population and resource base is in a period of transition due to challenges not necessarily related to Plan area activities. Recognizing this transition, the TNRD has developed this OCP to help current residents prepare themselves for both the challenges and opportunities that lay in the future. The Plan is also written as a guide for those who have yet to move to the area. All told, the objectives and policies contained in the OCP are a reflection of research, analysis, current trends and community values. This OCP is not the first long range plan for the North Thompson. In 1979, the TNRD Board of Directors adopted the first Official Regional Plan in the TNRD. The Barriere and Clearwater Official Settlement Plans (OSP), adopted in 1982, represent the first long-range planning initiatives in the North Thompson Valley. The OSPs offered the first area specific objectives and policies to guide decisions on planning and land use. The two OSPs were reviewed in the early 1990s, culminating in the adoption of Barriere and Clearwater OCPs in 1996. Blue River and Avola OCPs were subsequently developed and adopted in 1994. North Thompson Official Community Plan December 12, 2019 Page 1 of 97 Much has changed since these long range plans were adopted. Although the Plan area abounds with opportunities, its communities share common rural development challenges including: a) stagnant or declining populations; b) a demographic profile considerably older than that of urban communities or of BC overall; c) low birth rates and in-migration trends; d) an older housing stock, comprising primarily of detached single family dwellings or manufactured homes; e) job losses in natural resource sectors; f) decreases of government offices, public services and private businesses; g) slower rates of new business creation and/or expansion; and h) limited financial resources and development capacity. These issues form a critical backdrop for this OCP as Plan area communities move forward into the next 25 years. A focus on creative adaptability and resiliency is required to encourage place-based renewal and to manage rural population decline as a result of the area’s weakened commodity- based resource economy. A revamped rural economy will continue to rely on traditional primary resource industries; however, more focus will need to be placed on the Plan area’s natural amenities and social assets present in its communities and settlement areas. The new OCP replaces the existing Blue River, Avola, Clearwater and Barriere OCPs and establishes long-range planning policy for the whole of Electoral Area “A” (Wells Gray Country), Electoral “B” (Thompson Headwaters) and Electoral Area “O” (Lower North Thompson). 1.2 Plan Role, Purpose & Legislative Context The Local Government Act sets out local government authority in British Columbia. The Act defines an OCP as a statement of objectives and policies to guide decisions on planning and land use management, within the area covered by the plan, respecting the purposes of local government. More specifically, the Act states that an OCP must include statements and map designations for the area covered by the plan respecting the following: a) the approximate location, amount, type and density of residential development required

In this study I explore methods for employing LiDAR-derived digital elevation models as a tool for archaeological prospection within the Highland Valley Copper Mine. A review of contemporary and formative LiDAR-analysis archaeological prospection research was conducted to identify the most appropriate visualization techniques and data management workflow. Specific methods for the identification of microtopographic relief with the potential to contain archaeological resources were developed. The efficacy of LiDAR-based topographic analysis using manual feature extraction is validated through comparison with georeferenced survey and ground-truthing data provided by my research partners at the Nlaka’pamux Nation Tribal Council.

  • Adams River As a Heritage River.Pdf
    Draft Nomination Document for the Adams River As a Canadian Heritage River Prepared for B.C. Ministry of Environment By Cal-Eco Consultants Ltd. March 31, 2006 Version 1.2 1 The Canadian Heritage Rivers System The Canadian Heritage Rivers System (CHRS) is Canada's national river conservation system, aimed at promoting, protecting and enhancing Canada's river heritage. The system has been established by the Federal, Provincial and Territorial governments for the purpose of recognizing outstanding rivers of Canada, and ensuring future management which will protect these rivers and enhance their significant heritage values for the long term benefit and enjoyment of Canadians. The CHRS operates under a charter that describes rivers as "0 priceless olld irreplaceoblepart of our 1I0lio1101 heriloge olld idmti!j'. In British Columbia, the Fraser, Kickinghorse and Cowichan Rivers have been designated as Heritage Rivers under the CHRS. To qualify for inclusion in the CHRS, a river (or section of river) must be of outstanding significance in one or more areas: natural heritage, human heritage, or recreational values. The process of nominating a Canadian Heritage River requires an assessment of a river's natural, cultural and recreational values against criteria set out by the CHRS. While the CHRS is administered by the Canadian Heritage Rivers Board, a fundamental ptinciple of the system is that it depends on voluntary participation, parmership, cooperation and community involvement. The CHRS has no legislative authority, and as such, Local, Provincial

  • Eocene Paleo-Physiography and Drainage Directions, Southern Interior Plateau, British Columbia1
    215 Eocene paleo-physiography and drainage directions, southern Interior Plateau, British Columbia1 Selina Tribe Abstract: A map of reconstructed Eocene physiography and drainage directions is presented for the southern Interior Plateau region, British Columbia south of 53°N. Eocene landforms are inferred from the distribution and depositional paleoenvironment of Eocene rocks and from crosscutting relationships between regional-scale geomorphology and bedrock geology of known age. Eocene drainage directions are inferred from physiography, relief, and base level elevations of the sub-Eocene unconformity and the documented distribution, provenance, and paleocurrents of early Cenozoic fluvial sediments. The Eocene landscape of the southern Interior Plateau resembled its modern counterpart, with highlands, plains, and deeply incised drainages, except regional drainage was to the north. An anabranching valley system trending west and northwest from Quesnel and Shuswap Highlands, across the Cariboo Plateau to the Fraser River valley, contained north-flowing streams from Eocene to early Quaternary time. Other valleys dating back at least to Middle Eocene time include the North Thompson valley south of Clearwater, Thompson valley from Kamloops to Spences Bridge, the valley containing Nicola Lake, Bridge River valley, and Okanagan Lake valley. During the early Cenozoic, highlands existed where the Coast Mountains are today. Southward drainage along the modern Fraser, Chilcotin, and Thompson River valleys was established after the Late Miocene. Résumé : Cet article présente une carte reconstituée de la géographie physique et des directions de drainage, à l’Éocène, pour la région du plateau intérieur de la Colombie-Britannique, au sud du 53e parallèle Nord. Les formes de terrain à l’Éocène sont déduites de la distribution et du paléoenvironnement de déposition des roches de l’Éocène et à partir de relations de recoupement entre la géomorphologie à l’échelle régionale et la géologie du socle, d’âge connu.
