  • Interview Summary
    Interview Summary Interviewee: Ronnie Semansha Date: November 4, 2009 Location: Chateh Administration Office Interviewers: Kathrin Janssen, Adena Dinn “This [BC] is our traditional lands” -Ronnie Semansha Hunting and Trapping Ronnie hunts for moose in British Columbia (BC) near Kotcho Lake along the winter access road that spans from Rainbow Lake to Fort Nelson. He once shot a moose adjacent to Cabin Lake. He also uses the Sierra Yoyo Desan road and the winter access road that loops around Kotcho Lake for hunting. He takes this route once a week beginning on Friday afternoons when he is finished work. Ronnie also hunts in the area near Kwokullie Lake; he travels there via the winter access on the 31st baseline. Ronnie strictly hunts for moose in BC, and noted that there are hardly any caribou left. He explained that there used to be lots of caribou in BC but there has been a drop in recent times. Fishing Ronnie noted that there are pickerel in Kotcho Lake and explained that there are all different kinds of fish out there [BC]. Travel Routes Ronnie travels to BC using the winter access roads. He noted that there were two roads that he generally used, one from Rainbow Lake to Fort Nelson and one that cuts North to the Zama area (along the 31st baseline). When he does go out, other community members will often accompany him and everyone chips in a little for gas and supplies. However, he generally goes out for just one day and does not require supplies beyond fuel. Transcript 13 If he cannot travel to a certain area via the winter roads then Ronnie will often use a skidoo and the cutlines to access those areas.

  • Fisheries Barriers in Native Trout Drainages
    Alberta Conservation Association 2018/19 Project Summary Report Project Name: Fisheries Barriers in Native Trout Drainages Fisheries Program Manager: Peter Aku Project Leader: Scott Seward Primary ACA Staff on Project: Jason Blackburn, David Jackson, and Scott Seward Partnerships Alberta Environment and Parks Environment and Climate Change Canada Key Findings • We compiled existing barrier location information within the Peace River, Athabasca River, North Saskatchewan River, and Red Deer River basins into a centralized database. • We catalogued fish habitat and community data for the Narraway River watershed for use in a population restoration feasibility framework. • We identified 107 potential barrier locations within the Narraway River watershed, using Google Earth ©, which will be refined using valley confinement modeling and validated with ground truthing in 2019. Introduction Invasive species pose one of the greatest threats to Alberta native trout species, through hybridization, competition, and displacement. These threats are partially mediated by the presence of natural headwater fish-passage barriers, namely waterfalls, that impede upstream 1 invasions. In Alberta, several sub-populations of native trout remain genetically pure primarily because of waterfalls. Identification and inventory of waterfalls in the Peace River, Athabasca River, North Saskatchewan River, and Red Deer River basins isolating pure populations and their habitats is critical to inform population recovery and build implementation strategies on a stream by stream basis. For example, historical stocking of non-native trout to the Narraway River watershed may be endangering native bull trout and Arctic grayling. Non-native cutthroat trout, rainbow trout, and brook trout have been stocked in the Torrens River, Stetson Creek, and Two Lakes, all of which have connectivity to the Narraway River.

  • Little Red Deer Subwatershed Red Deer River State of the Watershed Report 4.4 Little Red Deer River Subwatershed
    Little Red Deer Subwatershed Red Deer River State of the Watershed Report 4.4 Little Red Deer River Subwatershed 4.4.1 Watershed Characteristics The Little Red Deer River subwatershed encompasses about 397,166 ha and is located in the Counties of Mountain View and Red Deer and the Municipal Districts of Bighorn No. 8 and Rocky View No. 44 (Figure 112). The Little Red Deer River subwatershed is located south of Gleniffer Lake Reservoir and east of the upper reaches of the Red Deer River. The subwatershed lies in the Subalpine, Upper and Lower Foothills, Foothills Parkland, Dry Mixedwood and Central Parkland Subregions (Figure 113). Soils vary widely, reflecting the great diversity in parent materials and ecological conditions. The vegetation consist of lodgepole pine (P. contorta), Engelmann spruce (P. engelmannii), subalpine fir (A. lasiocarpa) and whitebark pine (P. albicaulis). High elevation grasslands also occur in the Subalpine Subregion. The Upper Foothills Subregion occurs on strongly rolling topography along the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. Upland forests are nearly all coniferous and dominated by white spruce (P. glauca), black spruce (P. mariana), lodgepole pine (P. contorta) and subalpine fir (A. lasiocarpa). The Lower Foothills Subregion is dominated by mixed forests of white spruce (P. glauca), black spruce (P. mariana), lodgepole pine (P. contorta), balsam fir (A. balsamea), aspen (Populus spp.), balsam poplar (P. balsamifera) and paper birch (B. papyrifera). The Foothills Parkland is dominated by aspen (Populus spp.), balsam poplar (P. balsamifera) and Bebb willow (S. bebbiana), with a lush understory dominated by a variety of herbaceous plants. Forests in the Dry Mixedwood Subregion are dominated by aspen (Populus spp.), balsam poplar (P.

Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS) has been a commercial recovery process since the mid 1980’s in the Cold Lake area in northeast Alberta. Also, Several Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) projects are in operation in different types of reservoirs in the Cold Lake area. There is a debate over whether CSS is more efficient in the Cold Lake reservoirs or SAGD. It is very important for producers to know broadly about the performance and efficiency of the oil recovery process.
