This board is a direct outgrowth of the honorary Board of Management established under the federal Minister of Marine and Fisheries in 1898- to encourage and supervise J marine biofogical research. With growth in the scope of responsibilities and I membership, the board became the Biological Board of Canada in 1912 and the ' Fisheries·Research Board of Canada in 1937. Although the honorary board-type of organization is unique among Canadian federal agencies responsible for re­ search on living renewable resources such as agriculture, forestry, and wildlife, it has been followed by two of the largest research organizations, the National Research Council (1917) and the Defence Research Board (1947). Function. Under the control of the Minister of Fisheries, the Board "has charge of all Dominion fishery research stations in Canada, and has the conduct and control of investigations of practical and economic problems connected with marine and freshwater fisheries, flora and fauna, and such other work as may be assigned by the Minister." It is the only organization in the federal government with scientific research responsibilities in this field. Membership. The Board consists of a full-time Chairman, appointed by the Governor-in-Council, and not more than eighteen honorary members, appointed by the Minister of Fisheries. The majority of members must be scientists and the remainder represent the Department of Fisheries and the fishing industry. In 1964 there were ten scientific members from British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, all being distinguished specialists in disciplines related to the Board's work. The seven' industry representatives, from both coasts and the Great Lakes, are prominent business leaders with intimate knowledge of the fishing industry. Representation from the Department of Fish­ eries is at a professional and senior level. Chairman. The first full-time Chairman of the Board was appointed on amendment of the Fisheries Research Board Act in 1953. "The Chairman is the chief executive officer of the Board and has sup~rvision over and direction of the work of the Board and of the persons appointed for the purpose of carrying out the work of the Board." Meetings. At its annual meetings in Ottawa, and at special meetings as necessary, the Board sets objectives and policies, reviews and guides broad research programs, and determines the laboratory and staff organization require­ ments to carry out these programs. Executive Committee. The administrative responsibilities of the Board are delegated to an Executive Committee consisting of the Chairman and four to six elected members, approved by the Minister. The Executive establishes the level . and distribution of capital facilities (such as laboratories and research vessels), operating funds, and research staffs required to carry out the Board's work.

  • Nipigon Bay Area of Concern Status of Beneficial Use Impairments September 2010
    Nipigon Bay Area of Concern Status of Beneficial Use Impairments September 2010 Nipigon Bay is in the most northerly area of Lake Superior. The Area of Concern takes in a large portion of Nipigon Bay and the Nipigon River, the largest tributary to Lake Superior, and the communities of Red Rock and Nipigon. There are Ontario Power Generation dams on the Nipigon River for the generation of hydroelectricity. The area supports a variety of wetlands and bird populations, including one of four known pelican colonies in Ontario. The watershed forests on both sides of the Nipigon River have been allocated for forest harvesting. Environmental concerns in the Nipigon Bay Area of Concern are related to water level and flow fluctuations in Lake Nipigon and the Nipigon River from the generation of hydroelectricity. These fluctuations affect stream bank stability, sediment load and fish and wildlife habitat. Other concerns include the accumulation of wood fibre, bark and other organic material from past log drives, and effluent discharges from a linerboard mill (which closed in 2006) and the municipal sewage treatment plants in Nipigon and Red Rock. PARTNERSHIPS IN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Nipigon Bay was designated an Area of Concern in 1987 under the Canada–United States Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. Areas of Concern are sites on the Great Lakes system where environmental quality is significantly degraded and beneficial uses are impaired. Currently, there are 9 such designated areas on the Canadian side of the Great Lakes, 25 in the United States, and 5 that are shared by both countries. In each Area of Concern, government, community and industry partners are undertaking a coordinated effort to restore environmental quality and beneficial uses through a remedial action plan.

Alternatively, the Center requests that the USFWS define and list distinct population segments of lake sturgeon in the U.S. as threatened or endangered. Lake sturgeon populations in Minnesota, Lake Superior, Missouri River, Ohio River, Arkansas-White River and lower Mississippi River may warrant endangered status. Lake sturgeon populations in Lake Michigan and the upper Mississippi River basin may warrant threatened status. Lake sturgeon in the central and eastern Great Lakes (Lake Huron, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River basin) seem to be part of a larger population that is more widespread.

  • Great Lakes Water Quality Board Position Statement on the Future of Great Lakes Remedial Action Plans
    WQB Position Statement - Future of RAPS Page 1 of 11 GREAT LAKES WATER QUALITY BOARD POSITION STATEMENT ON THE FUTURE OF GREAT LAKES REMEDIAL ACTION PLANS SEPTEMBER 1996 Introduction It has been over ten years since the Parties and Jurisdictions committed to the development and implementation of Remedial Action Plans (RAPs) to restore all uses in Great Lakes Areas of Concern. Recently, federal, state, and provincial budget constraints have resulted in less support for RAPs and public advisory committee (PAC) activities. Further budget cutbacks are anticipated. Numerous RAP stakeholders and many PACs have indicated that further progress will be difficult. In light of the fact that the Great Lakes Water Quality Board (WQB) was the originator of RAPs, that the WQB is the principal advisor to the International Joint Commission (IJC) on water quality matters, that the WQB is charged with assessing the adequacy and effectiveness of Great Lakes programs, and in response to concern for recent government cutbacks in RAP funding, the WQB has prepared this position statement on the future of RAPs based on its practical experiences over the last 11 years. This WQB position statement will review the history of RAPs, address current RAP funding concerns, and provide practical advice on sustaining RAP processes and ensuring continued progress toward the goal of restoring all uses in Areas of Concern. Water Quality Board Historical Perspective on RAPs The concept of RAPs originated from a 1985 recommendation of the WQB (WQB 1985). The WQB found that despite implementation of regulatory pollution control programs, a number of beneficial uses (e.g., unrestricted human consumption of fish, successful reproduction of certain sentinel wildlife species, fish and wildlife habitat) were not being restored, and recommended that comprehensive and systematic RAPs be developed and implemented to restore all beneficial uses in Areas of Concern.
