Establishing networks of protected areas and maintaining connectivity between them is the most recommended prescription for minimizing the impacts of these influences. Conservation planning must occur at the scale at which climate and evolutionary changes occur. The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) is one of the world's oldest and most advanced efforts to establish a large-scale network of protected areas and maintain connectivity between them. Working with a network of more than 125 partners, Y2Y promotes the establishment of new protected areas and their management for biodiversity conservation. Programs also support the mitigation of highway and railway impacts on wildlife, provide education and resources for minimizing conflicts between communities and wildlife, restore and remove industrial access roads, protect private lands through purchase or easement, and, when necessary, oppose inappropriate development. -

Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue
1 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue Garibaldi Provincial Park, located in the traditional territory of the Squamish people, forms much of the backdrop to Whistler/ Blackcomb, site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Games. Sitting in the heart of the Coast Mountains, the park takes its name from the towering 2,678 metre peak, Mount Garibaldi. Garibaldi Park is known for its pristine beauty and spectacular natural features. Just 70 km north of Vancouver, the park offers over 90 km of established hiking trails, and is a favourite year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Interesting Garibaldi Park Facts • The southern portion of Garibaldi Park is home to the Garibaldi Volcano, part of the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt and made up of Mount Garibaldi, Atwell Peak, and Dalton Dome. This stratavolcano, so named because of its conelike layers of hardened lava, rock and volcanic ash, last erupted 10,000 to 13,000 years ago under glacial ice. It is this event that is responsible for forming some of the fascinating geological features in the park, such as Opal Cone, the Table and Black Tusk. • The “Barrier” is a natural rock formation created by the volcanic explosion of Mount Price thousands of years ago; the lava created a natural dam for the melt streams from nearby glaciers. As a result Garibaldi Lake formed. The lake reaches depths of up to 300 metres in places and is rich in silt (or ‘rock flour’), which gives the lake its characteristic milky blue colour. www.bcparks.ca 2 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue History In 1860, while surveying Howe Sound on board the Royal Navy ship H.M.S. -

6 Existing Environmental Conditions in the Study Area 6.1 Study Area
Webequie Supply Road Environmental Assessment Draft Terms of Reference 6 Existing Environmental Conditions in the Study Area 6.1 Study Area The Project is located in Northwestern Ontario, with the northern end of the road approximately 525 km northeast of Thunder Bay (refer to Figure 1.1). The Project is located on provincial Crown land, Webequie First Nation Reserve land under federal jurisdiction), and the traditional territories of Indigenous communities (refer also to Section 6.4.6 Land and Resource Use). Figure 6.1 illustrates the location of the alternative routes in relation to project area features and sensitivities. Due to confidentiality constraints (including those imposed by Webequie First Nation and Government of Ontario ministries), and the need to respect the wishes of potentially affected Indigenous communities with respect to divulging certain information on the use of lands in the project area, it is not possible to illustrate the location or bounds of a number of features and sensitivities, including First Nations’ traditional territories, individual camps/cabins, species at risk (e.g., caribou ranges), and government-regulated hunting areas (e.g., trapline licences). However, sensitive features and resources are described in general terms in this section of the ToR. The EA will summarize past investigations and analyses of alternative road alignments between Webequie and the mineral deposit area near McFaulds Lake, and will assess the potential impacts of alternative alignments in the preferred corridor for the Webequie Supply Road. The significance of an environmental impact partially depends on the geographic extent. As such, the impact assessment will be conducted on the basis of specific study areas related to the project development, adopting a multi-scale approach for describing baseline conditions (existing environment) and predicting effects from the Project. -

An Assessment of the Groundwater Resources of Northern Ontario
Hydrogeology of Ontario Series (Report 2) AN ASSESSMENT OF THE GROUNDWATER RESOURCES OF NORTHERN ONTARIO AREAS DRAINING INTO HUDSON BAY, JAMES BAY AND UPPER OTTAWA RIVER BY S. N. SINGER AND C. K. CHENG ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND REPORTING BRANCH MINISTRY OF THE ENVIRONMENT TORONTO ONTARIO 2002 KK PREFACE This report provides a regional assessment of the groundwater resources of areas draining into Hudson Bay, James Bay, and the Upper Ottawa River in northern Ontario in terms of the geologic conditions under which the groundwater flow systems operate. A hydrologic budget approach was used to assess precipitation, streamflow, baseflow, and potential and actual evapotranspiration in seven major basins in the study area on a monthly, annual and long-term basis. The report is intended to provide basic information that can be used for the wise management of the groundwater resources in the study area. Toronto, July 2002.

Kamloops TSA - Forest Health Strategy
Kamloops TSA - Forest Health Strategy Thompson Rivers Forest District April 2017 Executive Summary The Kamloops TSA Forest Health Strategy has for the most part not been changed for this year. There have been minor edits, as well as some additions. It is expected that over the next few years, that there will be more information added with respect to; Stand Establishment Decision Aids, strategies for pests in young stands, stocking standards related to forest health factors and climate change adaptation strategies. The changes of note this year are: • New Root disease guidance Document Update on Bark Beetles in Kamloops TSA: • Areas affected by Western balsam bark beetle have dropped to less than half of 2016 levels resulting in 59,730 hectares infested. The decline is due to lower red attack rates, with stands in the northern portion of the TSA, around Dunn Peak, Trophy Mountain, and Wells gray Park and the upper North Thompson being the most affected. • Spruce beetle – attack levels remain high, with 9,770 hectares identified, the largest new infestation moving into uninfested stands in Wells Gray Park around Kostal Lake, McDougall Lake, and the west arm of Murtle Lake, Angus Horn Creek and the Upper Clearwater River. • Douglas fir beetle – the area affected by Douglas fir beetle more than doubled, to 3,100 hectares in 362 patches and 1,290 smaller spot infestations. The attack is widespread across the southern portion of the TSA with significant red attack in the Wells Gray Park, Barriere River, Adams Lake and Pinantan Lake areas. Douglas fir beetle is anticipated to build in fire damaged trees along the margins of the Elephant Hill, Thuya Lakes and Dunn Lake fires where there is variable burn severity and low intensity ground fires. -
