Avalanches have been responsible for at least 702 fatalities in Canada since the earliest recorded incident in 1782. Sixty-one percent of these fatalities occurred in British Columbia, with 13% in Alberta, 11% in Quebec and 10% in Newfoundland and Labrador. The remainder occurred in Ontario, Nova Scotia and the Yukon, Northwest and Nunavut Territories. Fifty-three percent of the fatalities were people engaged in recreational activities, while 18% were people in or near buildings, 16% were travelling or working on transportation corridors and 8% were working in resource industries.

    Vol.20 No. 5, 2005 Page 1 ISSN 1712-6843 Judicial Scrutiny of Environmental Assessment in Alberta: Deference is the Measure of the Day By Jason Unger Staff Counsel Environmental Law Centre The scope of discretion given to government decision makers in ordering environmental impact assessments (EIAs) was recently considered by two courts in Alberta. The Court of Appeal case of Castle-Crown Wilderness Coalition v. Alberta (Director of Regulatory Assurance Division, Alberta Environment)1 (Castle Mountain Resort) involved a challenge of the government decision not to order an EIA pursuant to the provincial Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act2 (EPEA) for a proposed expansion of the Castle Mountain Resort. Federally, the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act3(CEAA) were considered in the case of Pembina Institute for Appropriate Development v. Canada (Minister of Fisheries and Oceans)4(Cheviot) dealing with the Cheviot mine outside of Jasper National Park. In both cases the courts were called upon to determine whether the government decision not to order an EIA was lawful. Painted with a broad brush, both decisions indicate that courts will be highly deferential to government decision makers in relation to discretionary decisions dealing with environmental assessments. This deference encompasses the ability of the decision maker to rely on consultations with other government departments and the ability to decide on mitigation measures that may be required. On a more practical level however, the cases raise questions relating to the efficacy of the environmental assessment legislation, both federal and provincial, and how courts view the purpose of such legislation. Castle Mountain Resort and EPEA The Castle Mountain Resort case involved a proposed expansion of existing facilities to accommodate more skiers, residents and visitors to the Castle area of southern Alberta.

  • Notice of Further Assessment
    Public Notice Castle Mountain Resort Development Notice of Further Assessment Castle Mountain Resort is currently a winter ski and snowboard resort in the MD of Pincher Creek #9 on the NE 24-04-04 W5M, which is public land held under a license of occupation (DLO). Castle Mountain Resort Inc. is proposing to add summer activities, increase the winter activities and develop additional base area facilities to accommodate a larger number of visitors. The proposed summer activities would include lift-serviced mountain biking, x-country mountain bike trails, hiking and sightseeing, via ferrata (a defined alpine climbing route equipped with fixed cables) and an aerial adventure park. Additionally, there would also be more programed events and festivals. Increased winter activities would involve additional proposed lifts and ski runs. At buildout, the resort could have a maximum of 156,000 visits in the winter season and 31,000 visits through the summer season, for a total annual visitation of 187,000. This would be a phased development as indicated in the Master Development Plan. This project is subject to regulation under the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act and the Water Act, however it is not a mandatory activity as defined by the Environmental Assessment (Mandatory and Exempted Activities) Regulation. To determine if an environmental impact assessment report should be required for this project, the Director is seeking public input. This public notice is an invitation to any person directly affected by the proposed project to
