The export value of the 1958 catch was $155 million, about two thirds of which came from the United States and most of the remainder from the United Kingdom, continental Europe and the Caribbean countries. Details of the catch and its disposal are contained in this report, together with an account of the work of the Department of Fisheries in all fields related to the sea and inland fishery resources. On the Pacific coast British Columbia's Centennial Year, 1958, was one of record-breaking proportions in the fishing industry, the highlight being an excep- tionally high return of Adams River sockeye salmon to the Fraser River system. In the Maritime Provinces results were considered satisfactory by comparison with other years both with regard to catch and landed values, although some segments of the industry still suffered from low returns for products in relation to continuing increased costs of production. Overall results of fishing activities in Newfoundland were disappointing. In spite of an increase in numbers of fishermen there, total landings of all species were substantially lower than in the previous year, and the production of salted fish was the lowest on record. The Canada Fisheries Act was proclaimed in Newfoundland to be effective May 1, 1958. This Act is a comprehensive one, the main points covered being the 1 powers of the Minister of Fisheries and fishery officers, the conservation and pro- tection of various species of fish, authority for fishery regulations, the problem of pollution and obstruction of streams and the licensing of fishing vessels and fishermen. On January 28-29, 1959, federal fisheries officials met with representatives of the inland provinces to discuss fisheries matters of mutual interest. This was the first meeting of its kind to be held for several years, and provided a forum for the consideration of common problems in fisheries management. In discharging its responsibilities to the fishermen, the processing industry, the general public and the resource itself, the Department encountered and dealt with new problems, especially in the field of conservation and development, which are outlined in the next chapter. During 1958 agreement was reached with the industry on processing standards to be adopted for fresh and frozen fish, these standards to be issued by the Canadian Government Specifications Board. Develop- mental projects in the interest of the fishing industry were undertaken in several fields, including exploratory fishing and experimental work with new catching devices and processing equipment. The Department continued to utilize press, radio, television, motion pictures, filmstrips, and talks as well as its own publications 7 and pamphlets to inform the public as well as those directly concerned with the fisheries of all new trends and developments, and to acquaint consumers with fishery products so that the industry and individual fishermen might benefit through increased consumption of fish on the home market. During 1958-59 discussions were held between departmental economists and representatives of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, with a view to improving the timeliness and accuracy of statistical services in the Maritime Provinces. As a result of these discussions, a comprehensive survey yielding a quantitative description of the characteristics of the fishing population, with the enterprise as a basic unit, was designed and completed, and a permanent register of this information is planned. In continued co-operation with the International Passamaquoddy Commission, a general survey of the principal fisheries as well as reports on particular aspects of the industry in the Passamaquoddy area were completed. These were necessary because of the proposed tidal power development in the Bay of Fundy. An increased amount of effort over that of previous years was employed in special regional economic studies aimed at the accurate planning and appraisal of public investment. These studies dealt with the Department's bait assistance programme for fishermen, the performance of subsidized fishing vessels and the economic impact on individual communities of public works projects. On the Pacific coast the growing emphasis on development of the fishing industry resuked in an increased number of requests for sta.tistical and economic information. Statistical reports published include monthly and annual catch statis- tics, an annual report on production and investment, and weekly production and market reports. The results of a survey on sport fishing begun in 1957 were published as a supplement to the Sport Fishery Statistical Report for 1958, and the record of fishing licenses in British Columbia was maintained. Special studies were begun on the fisheries of the Northwest Territories and others continued on the British Columbia salmon and halibut fisheries. A dogfish subsidy programme was put into operation to help reduce the predations of this species on valuable commercial stocks. One chapter of this report gives a brief account of the biological, technological and oceanographic work of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, which functions under the authority of the Minister of Fisheries and as such is the scientific arm of the Department. Details of the Board's investigations and experiments connected with practical and economic problems connected with marine and freshwater fisheries, flora and fauna are contained in the Board's own report, published annually. The Fisheries Prices Support Board, which also operates under the Minister of Fisheries, is made up of five representatives from the fishing industry who attend meetings of the Board on call and a permanent chairman. The year 1958-59 was one of comparatively good prices to fishermen in all producing areas and no specific measures of support were necessary. At the request of the Minister the Board met on two occasions to deal with a serious problem of income deficiency over a widespread area of Newfoundland, where failure of the catch resulted in a sharp reduction in the production of salted cod. While the problem could not be alleviated 8 under the provisions of the Fisheries Prices Support Act the Board recommended and the Government approved a programme calling for the construction of 20 "community stages- in the most seriously affected areas. , The year 1958-59 was one of further extension and progress under the Fisher- .1 against loss of or damage 1 men's Indemnity Plan which provides low cost protection I to fishing boats valued under $10,000, and to lobster traps. 1 The growth of the vessel part of the Plan during the year was quite substantial, ', with 785 vessels being added to the insured fleet. All areas in varying degrees : contributed to the growth. The insured value at March 31, 1959, had reached an j all time high of $14.62 million. With a larger insured fleet, it was not surprising j that more claims were paid during 1958-59 than in any previous fiscal year. Despite I that fact, however, only three per cent of the total number of policies underwritten • since the inception of the Plan in mid-1953 had produced claims. ... The programme of insuring lobster traps was continued. There was a slightly : greater acceptance of this phase of the Plan than in previous years, but the increase .. in premiums was insignificant compared to the very substantial increase in claims : resulting from severe ice conditions and storms, particularly in Newfoundland and ; the Maritime Provinces. In Quebec, the opera.tion was reasonably successful , throughout 1958-59. The Department is called upon to see that Canada's responsibi lities under ï treaties with other countries for conservation of the resources of the high seas and international fresh waters are carried out. The work of the seven international commissions on which this country are represented are dealt with in this report. 9 78047-8-2 CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICE HERE is no doubt that during the fiscal year 1958-59, the Conservation and TDevelopment Service of the Department was still being faced with a flood of problems in its efforts to maintain and expand the Canadian fishery resource.

    Singing Waters Unplanned conservation on four northern Maine rivers Lloyd C. Irland 68 Appalachia Appalachia_SF2017_FINAL_4.25.17_REV.indd 68 5/4/17 10:33 AM Perhaps our grandsons, having never seen a wild river, will never miss the chance to set a canoe in singing waters. —Aldo Leopold In summer 1967, I was in high school in Illinois. I planned a trip on the Allagash River with my brother. We didn’t end up going. We didn’t have the time. So we hiked a piece of the Appalachian Trail. Today I ask myself how two Illinois teenagers, in 1967, even knew of the Allagash, an obscure river 1,200 miles away. Somehow the news in 1966, the year Maine created its Allagash Wilderness Waterway, had gotten to us. And it inspired me for a lifetime. I eventually moved to Maine. Over the years, I’ve canoed or fished parts of the Allagash and other Maine rivers. In my professional life as a forestry researcher, I have flown over and studied the entire region. Last year’s 50th anniversary of the waterway designation inspired this reflection on its impor- tance as a wild river and as a force for the value of wildness in our lives. As I consider the hold the Allagash maintains over me and others, I will compare it with three other rivers. The waterways I’ll talk about here are the Allagash, from its source in Churchill Lake, northwest of Baxter State Park, 100 miles to the Saint John River; the Saint John, from the Saint John Ponds (several shallow lakes) 150 miles to the town of Fort Kent; the West Branch of the Penobscot, above Ripogenus Dam; and the rugged East Branch of the Penobscot, which flows more than 75 miles north of Katahdin.

    BIBLIOGRAPHY -ON THE LIMNOLOGY AND FISHERIES. OF CANADIAN FRESHWATERS. NO .''5 (REVISED). by H.F.NICHOLSON Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory, Canada Centre for Inland Waters, 867 Lakeshore Road, Burlington, Ontario. L7R 4A6 PREFACE This is a revised edition of Bibliography No.5, published in 1978 as Fish. Environm.Can., Fish.Mar.Serv., Techn.Rept., (804). Due to budget restrictions and the high cost of printing, combined with an expanding distribution list, it is no longer possible to publish this series as Technical Reports. Instead, each number will be issued in this present looseleaf form as an unpublished report of the Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory. Please note that those from outside Canada requesting copies of this series will be sent the Reference Indexes only. However, the Canadian Freshwater Features Section will be sent if specifically requested. This issue can be referenced as:- Nicholson, H.F. 1982. "Bibliography on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. No.5(revised)". Can.Dept.Fish.Oceans, Pacific & Freshw.Fish., Great Lakes Biolimnol.Lab., Unpubl.Rept. FORMAT The bibliography is divided into two sections:- (1). Reference Index Each of these references contains information on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. They are numbered and appear in numerical order. This enumeration is consecutive and continuous through the bibliography series. (2). Freshwater Feature Index This section is divided into alphabetical order of provinces and within each province the freshwater feature names are in alphabetical order. The coordinates (in minutes and degrees, latitude and longitude) are given for each feature except for British Columbia where, for the most part, the quadrilateral indexing system is used.

Since that time, however, as a result of various agreements, certain provinces have accepted in a greater or lesser degree the administration of the fisheries within their bound­ aries. Thus the Province of Quebec administers all its fisheries both freshwater and marine. The Provinces of Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta 1 assume responsibility for the freshwater species while the Government of Canada handles such marine problems as occur. In British Columbia and Newfoundland the Government of Canada is completely responsible for the marine and anadromous (salmon, smelts, etc.) fish while the provinces take charge of the purely freshwater species. In Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, the Northwest Territories and the Yukon Territory, the Government of Canada carries out its full responsibility in exerting not only legislative but administrative control. It should be stressed that everywhere in Canada, fisheries legislation is federal even though certain provinces may assume enforcement responsibility.
