CARTOGRAPHY AND CONTESTED OCEAN SPACE: AN ANALYSIS OF INTERTIDAL SHELLFISH HARVEST SPACES IN THE TERRITORY OF THE HEILTSUK FIRST NATION

Katrina Stephany Advisor: University of Guelph, 2015 Dr. Jennifer Silver

Where many Settler societies tend to view oceans as asocial spaces distinct from land and separate from human culture and relationships, many coastal Indigenous peoples do not perceive home lands and oceans as materially or conceptually discrete. A small body of research that contextualizes these differences and explores their implications exists, but more is needed as marine development is set to expand worldwide. The premise of this thesis is that cartography can be used to document Indigenous ocean territories and help to clarify the contemporary use and governance of contested ocean spaces. The research, undertaken in the territory of the

Heiltsuk First Nation located in the Canadian Province of , identifies and enumerates overlap between Indigenous sites of marine cultivation and harvest called ‘clam gardens’ and state-identified sites for shellfish aquaculture.

Three primary tasks were completed in this thesis. First, GIS base-maps were produced that synthesize locational and qualitative data regarding documented Heiltsuk clam gardens (i.e., sites built by Heiltsuk ancestors for shellfish cultivation) and contemporary intertidal shellfish harvest sites. Second, the base maps were overlaid with polygons denoting areas identified in

Federal and Provincial reports as open to future development for shellfish aquaculture. Finally, instances of spatial overlap between clam gardens, contemporary harvest sites, and areas identified as open to privatization for shellfish aquaculture were enumerated and critically evaluated, particularly in terms of the potential they create for future resource conflict. Data sources included Heiltsuk marine resource harvest and use surveys, transcripts of key informant interviews housed in HIRMD, coordinates of clam gardens documented by Heiltsuk and academic archaeologists and re-confirmed with GPS during fieldwork, and two key government documents regarding shellfish aquaculture expansion.

Findings reveal at least 348 instances of overlap between Heiltsuk intertidal harvest sites and areas identified for shellfish aquaculture expansion. Eighteen of 27 identified clam gardens located in the study area were adjacent to spaces identified in Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans maps as ‘green’, a signal meant to communicate their potential as possible sites for future private geoduck aquaculture tenures. Three key arguments emerge from this research.

First, that ocean space is contested and competing Heiltsuk and Settler Government territorialities are at play in the study area. Second, that shellfish aquaculture expansion has the potential to reduce coastal First Nations’ present-day access to important harvest sites. Finally, that scholarly and public discussion needs to shift away from presenting clam gardens as

‘ancient’ archaeological sites and towards a perspective that acknowledges them as active territorial spaces. In sum, this thesis demonstrates overlapping Indigenous and State territorialities in contested ocean space and contributes a case study to growing literature on the implications of clam gardens to contemporary oceans governance in BC.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scholarly Context and Research Aim

Globally, conflicts over ocean space and marine resource management are increasing between State Governments and Indigenous Peoples (Valencia and Vanderzwaag, 1989;

Mulrennan and Scott 2000; Erueti and Charters, eds. 2007). Questions of sovereignty and best economic practices, as well as differing opinions toward how to utilize and conserve space and resources, often ignite these conflicts. Foundational to these conflicts is the fact that settler societies tend to view oceans as asocial spaces distinct from land and separate from human culture and relationships (Jackson 1995; Steinburg 1999). For many Indigenous peoples, particularly those whose home territories are coastal, land and ocean spaces are not conceptually distinct. In fact, many Indigenous communities view ocean space as integral to territory, central to culture, and foundational to key governance practices, life experiences, and even personal identity (Jackson 1995; Mulrennan and Scott 2000).

Clam gardens are a method of shellfish cultivation and management used for generations by Indigenous First Nations in the Canadian Province known today as British Columbia (BC)

(Williams 2006; Lepofsky and Caldwell 2013; Lepofsky et al. 2015). Specifically, they are human-constructed rock-faced terraces built in the lower intertidal zone designed to increase clam productivity (Groesbeck et al. 2014). Through a variety of mechanisms, these terraces, in combination with other bivalve management techniques, enhance clam production (Williams

2006; Lepofsky and Caldwell 2013:7; Groesbeck et al. 2014; Lepofsky et al. 2015). In some instances, clam gardens appear to be part of larger coastal management complexes that also

1 include features such as fish traps and weirs, as well as stream modification (Caldwell et al.

2012).1

In the past, researchers and state natural resource managers have failed to recognize the role of cultivation in Indigenous harvest and consumptive activities on the Northwest Coast.

That is, they assumed that Northwest Coast peoples ‘hunted and gathered’, rather than actively managing and cultivating the spaces and resources around them (Turner and Berkes 2006;

Turner et al. 2013). Clam gardens offer an illustrative example that, like landscapes, seascapes had been intentionally managed to nutritionally and economically support First Nations (Turner and Berkes 2006; Cannon and Burchell 2009; Turner et al. 2011; Lepofsky and Caldwell 2013).

Researching clam gardens can help us to better understand Indigenous ocean territories and

Settler-Indigenous resource conflicts on Canada’s West Coast. Therefore, they are the focus of growing research attention (Caldwell et al. 2012; Lepofsky and Caldwell 2013; Augustine and

Dearden 2014; Groesbeck et al. 2014; Berkes 2015; Deur et al. 2015; Lepofsky et al. 2015).

Interest in clam gardens comes after several decades during which the Federal and

Provincial Governments prioritized the development of industrial invertebrate fisheries and shellfish aquaculture expansion in intertidal and nearshore spaces (Silver 2013, 2014; Klain et al.

2014). In the 1970s, the Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans initiated what are now two profitable commercial invertebrate fisheries managed today using private licenses: one for sea cucumbers; and one for large clams called geoduck (Klain et al. 2014). During roughly the same period, the Provincial Government made almost four thousand hectares of intertidal and nearshore space available to shellfish aquaculture in the form of private leases for marine tenures

(Silver 2013, 2014). Within leased shellfish tenures, shellfish farmers adopt intensive cultivation

1 See Appendix 1 for a detailed background on clam garden morphology and on the importance of clam gardens to coastal First Nations communities. 2 The EEZ is a recognized jurisdictional marine area, extending from the coastline to a distance of 200 nautical miles 2 and husbandry techniques for growing one or more of a variety of permitted shellfish species, including Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas), Manilla clams (Venerupis philippinarum), Pacific scallops (Chlamys rubida) and geoduck (Panopea generosa). First Nations representation and participation in these fishing and aquaculture activities remains minimal, although a few success stories exist and some government efforts have been made to address this disparity (Klain et al.

2014; Silver 2014).

While Federal and Provincial governments assert sovereignty over waters and resources within the Canadian exclusive economic zone (EEZ)2 on the BC coast, many coastal First

Nations hold a different perception regarding governance authority and sovereignty in marine waters (Atleo 2004; Menzies 2010; Ayers et al. 2012). For example, within their home lands and oceans, the Heiltsuk First Nation recognizes Gvi’ilas, the guiding law that consists of principles that inform Heiltsuk understanding of place (Harkin 1996; White 2006; Housty et al. 2014).

Recognizing that Gvi’ilas guides the Heiltsuk to pursue a collective “power of place” helps to better contextualize Harris’ (2001) observation that Heiltsuk assertions regarding their territorial boundaries and governance authority do not align, and often conflict with, Federally delineated and regulated fishing management areas. As Harris (2001) writes, government fisheries management regimes “assume the territoriality of the Canadian state” with the effect of

“diminishing Heiltsuk efforts to be recognized as a political community with the authority to govern resource use in their traditional territory” (p.196).

On land, GIS has long been employed to document Indigenous territorial boundaries and synthesize data regarding significant resource sites and cultural uses (Chapin et al. 2005; Egan

2012; Palmer and Rundstrom 2013; Blomely 2014). Indigenous-initiated mapping, particularly

2 The EEZ is a recognized jurisdictional marine area, extending from the coastline to a distance of 200 nautical miles (nmi). This region provides for sovereign jurisdictions which include establishing artificial islands and barriers, marine scientific research, and conservation/preservation measures within the country’s boundaries (www.un.org).

3 that which demonstrates continuous use and management, has been central to First Nations’ resource management and planning, court cases, and treaty negotiations (Tobias 2000, 2009;

Freeman 2011; Gilmore and Young 2012). Because clam gardens are marine harvest sites initiated and cultivated by Heiltsuk ancestors, identifying how they overlap with contemporary

Heiltsuk harvest sites, as well as Federally and Provincially identified areas open to shellfish aquaculture, offers a tangible and timely opportunity to explore overlapping territorialities and changing access in contested ocean space (e.g., Brown et al. 2008; Harris and Millerd 2010).

1.2 Project Impetus and Research Objectives

The aim of this research was to gather and synthesize data regarding the location of clam gardens and other activities within the marine territory of the Heiltsuk First Nation on the central coast of BC. This aim was conceived in an effort to document, enumerate, and further examine instances of overlap between clam gardens and present-day activities related specifically to shellfish. The project was developed iteratively with and approved by the Heiltsuk Integrated

Management Department (HIRMD). A research protocol for work with human subjects was also approved by the University of Guelph Research Ethics Office. The final GIS database and maps have been returned to and will remain the sole property of HIRMD.

The thesis research itself consisted of three objectives. First, create a data base and base map which identified documented Heiltsuk clam gardens and contemporary intertidal harvest sites. Second, overlay the base map with polygons representing areas identified in Provincial and

Federal documents as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases. Third, enumerate and discuss overlaps between clam gardens, Heiltsuk shellfish harvest and use sites, and areas identified as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases. Data

4 sources for this work included Heiltsuk marine resource harvest and use surveys, transcripts of key informant interviews housed in HIRMD, coordinates of clam gardens documented by

Heiltsuk and academic archaeologists and re-confirmed with GPS during fieldwork, and two key government documents regarding shellfish aquaculture expansion.

As will be elaborated in the next two chapters, research findings demonstrate that overlapping marine territorialities are at play in Heiltsuk territory. This creates the potential for conflict, especially should government-initiated shellfish aquaculture expansion impact Heiltsuk access to intertidal spaces. While several researchers have examined spatial ocean resource conflicts on the BC coast qualitatively (Deur et al. 2013, 2015; Harris 2001, 2002, 2008; Harris and Millerd 2010), quantitative support for these arguments remains limited in the literature

(Joyce and Cannessa 2009; Joyce and Satterfield 2010). This thesis contributes a case study that illustrates overlapping Heiltsuk and State territorialities in contested ocean space and contributes to growing literature on the implications of clam gardens to contemporary oceans governance in

BC.

Cartography and contested ocean space: an analysis of intertidal shellfish harvest spaces in the territory of the Heiltsuk First Nation.

Abstract: While GIS has been frequently used in analysis of Indigenous-State conflicts regarding terrestrial spaces, it has not been used to the same extent in contested ocean space. Using digital mapping, this research identifies and enumerates instances of spatial overlap between Heiltsuk-modified intertidal sites for shellfish cultivation and harvest (i.e., ‘clam gardens’) and ocean spaces identified in Federal and Provincial documents as open for private shellfish aquaculture tenures. The overlaps identified in this project quantitatively illustrate overlapping territorialities and suggest the potential for future marine resource conflicts. The paper demonstrates that cartography attentive to modified and cultivated ocean spaces may be an important tool for coastal First Nations as they continue to identify priority areas for planning and negotiation, as well as engage larger questions about rights and title in marine spaces.

2.1 Introduction

Conflicts over ocean space and marine resource use between national governments and

Indigenous nations and communities occur around the globe (Valencia and Vanderzwaag, 1989;

Mulrennan and Scott 2000; Dorsett 2007; Erueti and Charters, eds. 2007; McCormack 2013).

Questions of sovereignty and best economic practices, as well as differing opinions toward how to utilize and conserve space and resources, often ignite these conflicts. Also at play in these conflicts is the fact that settler societies tend to view oceans as asocial spaces, distinct from land and separate from human culture and relationships (Jackson 1995; Steinburg 1999).

The origins, politics, and impacts of Indigenous-Settler contestations over land and sea space have been addressed by Indigenous scholars, geographers, and historians (C. Harris 2002;

Murton 2007; D. Harris 2008; Coulthard 2014). In BC, Deur et al. (2013) remind us that settlers

7 often claimed traditional Indigenous resources and resource areas (marine and terrestrial) for their own and transformed these places by engaging in their preferred cultural, cultivation, and economic practices (pg. 13). These actions dispossessed First Nations from important territory and harvest areas, and by virtue of the settler legal system that developed, complicate contemporary efforts by nations to reassert rights and title over homeland spaces (Harris 2008;

Deur et al. 2013; Blomley 2014). While work on First Nations’ ocean territoriality and marine resources management in BC exists (Newell 1993; Harris 2001; Atleo 2004), focused attention on the politics of and contestations over ocean space is necessary (Turner et al. 2013; Augustine and Dearden 2014; Silver 2014).

Harris (2008) suggests that “[c]onflict over territory lies at the heart of colonialism” (pg. 9).

This paper, based on research undertaken in the territory of the Heiltsuk First Nation located in the central coast region of BC, identifies, enumerates, and discusses spatial overlaps between

Indigenous sites of marine cultivation (called ‘clam gardens’) and harvest and state-identified sites for shellfish aquaculture. Facilitated by extensive and sophisticated resource use inventories initiated and compiled by Heiltsuk leadership, ArcGIS was used to synthesize and map the physical locations of clam gardens and present-day Heiltsuk intertidal resource harvest sites. The resulting base map was then overlaid with polygons representing areas identified as open to future application and privatization in Federal and Provincial shellfish aquaculture expansion and planning documents. Analysis revealed numerous instances of spatial overlap between mapped features. As will be discussed, these overlaps provide quantitative support for

Harris’ (2008) assertion and demonstrate the potential for future conflict over ocean spaces and marine resources on the BC Central coast.

2.2 Scholarly Context

2.2.1 Contested Ocean Space

In many places, Indigenous peoples seek to retain access to marine resources and to reassert governance authority over territorial ocean spaces. For example, in New Zealand, legislative policies continue to catalyze legal battles between the State and Maori communities regarding ownership and access (Dorsett 2007). In Hawai’i, Indigenous communities and fishers seek to retain opportunities for both commercial and subsistence fishing adjacent to their lands

(McCormack 2013). In Canada, where rights and access to intertidal and foreshore spaces are legally categorized as the jurisdiction of the Provincial Government (often intertidal) and/or

Federal Government (foreshore and Exclusive Economic Zone), First Nations, Inuit, or Métis nations seek greater resource access and recognized governance authority through the courts, by obtaining commercial licenses, by pursuing self-driven management planning, and through protest (Newell 1993; UBCIC 2005; Schreiber 2006; Curry et al. 2014).

For many Indigenous peoples, particularly those whose home territories are coastal, separation between land and ocean is not conceptually distinct; oceans are often understood as integral to territory, central to culture, and as foundational to key governance practices, life experiences, and even personal identity (Jackson 1995; Mulrennan and Scott 2000). British

Columbia (BC) presents an appropriate case study regarding the question of contested space for two reasons. First, original treaties were never established for a majority of First Nations in this province. This meant that dispossession and the creation of a reserve system occurred without any formal negotiation or compensation process (Usher et al. 1992). This is especially important for understanding current contestations over marine harvest rights on the West Coast. Second, although it was recognized that many coastal First Nations relied on marine resources,

9 reservation boundaries ended where the land stopped and the water began (Harris 2008). The access that these communities have to marine resources for commercial use and for food, social, and ceremonial (FSC) purposes has transformed and/or diminished over time (Harris 2008).

As a result, Indigenous peoples, local commercial and local-scale fishers, and resource communities on the West Coast are apprehensive about their futures, as their fisheries face

“uncertainty about resource and markets, unprecedented structural changes in the industry, pressures from tough new environmental laws to protect endangered stocks, and from treaties with First Nations” (McRae and Pearse 2004:1). Government agencies, such as the DFO, are attempting to address these anxieties through governance efforts which include privatized marine tenures for aquaculture, Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) and Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), designed to manage scarce resources and improve collaboration with local communities and

Indigenous groups (Sloan 2004; Ban et al. 2008, 2013; Augustine and Dearden 2014).

2.2.2 Shellfish Governance in BC

In Canada, the Federal government is charged with jurisdiction over commercial fisheries and shipping, as well as power over First Nations’ Reserves, treaty obligations, and land rights

(Howlett and Rayner 2003:174). Within the Federal government, there are three different agencies which hold power over decision making: the DFO, Environment Canada, and the

Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) (Howlett and Rayner 2003). In BC, the Provincial

Government is concerned with property, civil rights, and regulating fluvial, estuary, and tidal areas contained within the province (Howlett and Rayner 2003:174). Finally, First Nations are granted rights to undertake and manage FSC resource harvests within their communities – but their management rights can often be overseen, regulated, and even infringed by both Federal and Provincial authorities (Howlett and Rayner 2003).

10

Howlett and Rayner (2003) suggest that shellfish aquaculture planning in Canada is complicated by differing laws and jurisdictions between involved regulatory bodies (pg. 174). In terms of Heiltsuk management of shellfish resources, this complexity is illustrated through conflicting management policies between the Province of BC, the Federal government, and the

Heiltsuk nation. For example, the Provincial Government began the Shellfish Development

Initiative (SDI) to increase the total space under private ocean tenure for shellfish aquaculture and the profitability of the shellfish aquaculture sector (Silver, 2014:430). Advocates of the SDI claimed that this strategy would serve to offer greater economic development opportunity in remote coastal First Nations communities (Silver, 2014:430). However, several communities have experienced less-than-anticipated economic benefits to date. Part of this discrepancy has resulted from differing needs, expectations, and capacities of the communities involved and tensions between private and communal marine property regimes (Silver 2014).

In 2010, the DFO assumed the responsibility for licensing aquaculture operations from the Province of BC, as part of the Federal Aquaculture Development Strategy which began in

1995 (IMFP 2013:7). This strategy was designed to expand geoduck (Panopea generosa) harvests on the West coast. In BC, complex management decisions are enhanced by questions of

Aboriginal Rights and Title over ocean space which remain unresolved through treaties and the courts. Ancient mariculture sites on the Northwest Coast of North America (clam gardens) are an example of Indigenous resource management features which not only demonstrate difference in management practices between the Canadian government and First Nations’ communities, but could generate future potential conflicts in the DFO’s efforts to expand privatized aquaculture on the West Coast. As I will discuss next, clam gardens raise questions about oceans governance authority and territorial sovereignty.

11

2.2.3 Clam gardens

The term ‘clam garden’ refers to a form of shellfish cultivation and management developed by coastal First Nations well before the first European settlers arrived (Fowler and

Lepofsky 2011; Groesbeck et al. 2014; Deur et al. 2015; Lepofsky et al. 2015). These features have distinctive morphologies, which include a constructed rock wall at the low tide line and evidence of beach clearing and deliberate management (Harper 1995:2; Lepofsky et al. 2015).

The concept of clam gardens, or “clam terraces” was first introduced when John Harper noticed these features during aerial surveys along the Broughton Archipelago in 1995 (Harper 1995).

Harper noticed a large number of walled clam beaches which had become visible at low tide in

Johnstone Strait. These observations were important, because they forced researchers and resource planners to acknowledge that First Nations communities engaged in mariculture activities long before settler society began controlling shellfish harvests along the West coast.

Because clam gardens are human-constructed spaces that improve shellfish productivity, they raise pressing questions about ocean territory and governance authority in the context of changing marine property regimes for shellfish aquaculture and enclosure for marine conservation and management. Specifically, shellfish aquaculture expansion necessitates converting common property intertidal spaces into private tenure leases while MSP and MPAs involve the delineation of new boundaries and rules regarding human activity (Ayers et al. 2012;

Silver 2014). As a result, many coastal First Nations are grappling with whether to pursue shellfish aquaculture and how best to participate in MSP/MPA processes relevant to their territorial waters. While shellfish aquaculture may offer economic development opportunities, marine tenures must be leased from government agencies (Joyce and Satterfield 2010).

Moreover, while MSP and MPAs processes are increasingly inclusive and seek to address valid

12 conservation concerns, some Indigenous scholars and leaders see these sorts of processes as tied to the ongoing politics of settler colonialism (Alfred 2001; Coulthard 2014).

2.3 Study Area and Methods

This project was developed iteratively with, and approved by, the Heiltsuk Integrated

Management Department (HIRMD). A research protocol for work with human subjects was also approved by the University of Guelph Research Ethics Office. Three research objectives were pursued. The first objective was to create a database and base map containing Heiltsuk clam garden locations and contemporary intertidal harvest sites. The second objective was to overlay the base map with polygons representing areas identified in Provincial and Federal documents as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases. The third objective was to enumerate and discuss overlaps between clam gardens, Heiltsuk shellfish harvest and use sites, and areas identified as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases. Data sources for this project include Heiltsuk marine resource harvest and use surveys, information from transcripts of key informant interviews housed in HIRMD, the physical locations of

Heiltsuk clam gardens shared by other researchers and re-confirmed using GPS during my field stay, one Federal report that identifies areas open to potential geoduck aquaculture expansion

(IGMF 2013), and one Provincial report that identifies areas open to potential oyster, clam, and scallop aquaculture expansion (SCCA 1997). With the exception of the Federal and Provincial shellfish aquaculture reports, data was searched and collected during fieldwork conducted in

Bella Bella, BC between May-August 2014. The final GIS database and maps have been returned to, and will remain the sole property of, HIRMD. Software package ArcGIS 10.2.1 was used throughout the project.

13

Shown in Figure 1, the study area extends from Goose Island to King Island (west to east) and Yeo Island to the southern end of Hunter Island (north to south). The study area was narrowed to cover only a portion of Heiltsuk territory for two key reasons. First, the study area included only those areas within Heiltsuk territory where extensive clam garden surveys by members of HIRMD and archaeologists have been completed, where locational data regarding

Heiltsuk intertidal harvest sites had been gathered, and where Provincial and Federal maps showing potential shellfish aquaculture tenure sites existed (SCCA 1997; IGMF 2013). Second, I sought to exclude territorial areas immediately adjacent to, or which overlapped with, boundaries shared or contested by neighbouring First Nations. Goose Island was an exception to this exclusion, as the land mass falls within Area 7, which is established by the DFO for the purposes of regulating seafood harvests on the Central coast.

Research objective one was pursued during my stay in Bella Bella. Over the last several decades, the resource harvest sites used by Heiltsuk peoples for commercial, food, social, and ceremonial purposes have been pinpointed and documented through Heiltsuk-lead ‘Traditional

Use Studies’ (i.e., HTUS 2014). For this research, HIRMD gave permission to digitize all intertidal and nearshore locations from HTUS (2014) that fell in the study area. In addition, I was granted permission to include locational data recorded during twelve semi-structured interviews on clam harvesting, management, and use conducted by members of the larger ‘Clam Garden

15 Network’ (transcripts now housed at HIRMD).3 Finally, the geo-referenced locations of twenty- seven known clam gardens in the study area were shared by Heiltsuk leadership and/or Clam

Garden Network archaeologists. During my field stay I confirmed clam garden locations by visiting sites and recording them with a Garmin GPSmap 60Cx hand-held GPS unit.

To complete research objective two, I obtained and assessed Provincial and Federal reports which identified intertidal and nearshore areas with the potential for private shellfish aquaculture tenures. Spaces identified in these documents were digitized as polygons and used to create a layer in the ArcGIS database. First, I acquired a publically-available BC Government

Shellfish Culture Capability Appraisal drafted in 1997 that delineated possible tenure sites for clam, oyster, and scallop aquaculture (SCCA 1997). This report evaluated sites and mapped and labelled spaces as ‘Not Advisable’, ‘Medium’, or ‘Good’ based on biophysical criteria including salinity, temperature, and tidal height (SCCA 1997, 1-2). For this research, only those areas with a rating of medium and good, and that fell within the study area, were included. Next, I obtained a publically-available Federal Draft Integrated Geoduck Aquaculture Management Framework

(IGMF 2013) and assessed corresponding online maps that delineated ocean spaces throughout coastal BC to a depth of 30m and indicated, by colour, how applications for geoduck aquaculture tenures would be considered.4

Whereas SCCA (1997) inventoried and mapped potential tenure areas based largely on biophysical characteristics, IGMF (2013) delineated areas by distinguishing whether they had been previously harvested in recent wild geoduck fishery openings: spaces were either ‘green’

3 See more on the Clam Garden Network here: http://clamgarden.com/ 4 The Federal Government has kept geoduck aquaculture to a limited number of sites in the region between and the Southern Mainland Coast. However, IGMF (2013) is a draft framework that seeks to guide “coast-wide opportunities for geoduck aquaculture” (pg. 4). It was circulated for public review and consultation purposes during late 2013 and into 2014. The consultation period on this draft has concluded, but a final framework has not yet been released. At last check, the corresponding maps no longer appear to be online, but were originally saved from: www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/consultation/aquaculture/index-eng.html

(no documented geoduck fishery), ‘yellow’ (harvested 1 to 3 times in the last four wild geoduck fishery openings), ‘red’ (harvested 4 of 4 times during last four wild geoduck fishery openings), or ‘no-go’ (due to water quality concerns or sanitation closures) (IGMF 2013:12). The draft framework document noted that applications to any space (no matter the colour) would be subject to review by regulatory agencies and considered for approval relative to: adjacent land- use activities; First Nations Food, Social, and Ceremonial (FSC) use; impacts to other fisheries and habitats; species listed under the Federal Species at Risk Act; intertidal stream channels and fish spawning areas; sanitation/water quality requirements; size and density of proposed tenures; proximity to research and development areas; and, considerations of tenure transfer (IGMF 2013,

11).5 Yellow areas would be considered against the extent of their potential impacts on wild fishery harvests and be limited to 20 hectares, while red areas would generally not be considered unless made by a First Nation. First Nation applications for tenure within red areas would be limited to 5 hectares and any granted tenures would be non-transferrable. All coloured areas identified in the online maps that fell within the study area were included as polygons in the top map layer.

To complete research objective three, I overlaid the base map with the polygons that outlined spaces delineated in SCCA (1997) and IGMF (2013). Figure 2 shows an example of one resulting layered map. For reasons of privacy and confidentiality, HTUS harvest sites and sites derived from the key informant interviews are not visible in this map and will not be released publically. As will be discussed for the remainder of the paper, the enumeration of overlap between Heiltsuk shellfish harvest sites, clam gardens, and areas open to possible shellfish aquaculture reveal some important trends and suggest the potential for future conflict.

5 As this was a ‘framework’ document, details regarding specific review procedures, timelines, and impact indicators were limited.

2.4 Findings

Table 1 enumerates spatial overlap present between Heiltsuk and government aquaculture features mapped for this project. The table shows that there are important overlaps between

DFO-proposed geoduck tenure sites, SCCA locations, and traditional Heiltsuk harvest areas. In this section I present and discuss four key findings that, as I will come back to later in the paper, support three broader arguments. These three arguments include discussions of the ways current

DFO aquaculture expansion proposals may serve to increase resource conflicts, reduce access to

18 important cultural/harvest areas for First Nations, and potentially limit research understandings for the significance of clam gardens as sites of active territoriality.

Total 118 27 10 348

2.4.1 Finding one: spatial overlap between DFO planned aquaculture tenures and Heiltsuk intertidal harvest sites.

Within the study area, the DFO evaluated approximately 118 km2 of foreshore and intertidal space for its geoduck aquaculture potential. Zones coded as ‘green’ (i.e., areas with no known wild geoduck fisheries, and therefore, no stated limit tenure size in proposals) constitute

58.5% of the total area evaluated. However, eighteen of 27 clam gardens also fall into green coded areas. Here we see the possibility that shellfish aquaculture expansion in Heiltsuk territory could physically damage clam gardens. Moreover, having identified specific locations where very different governance and property regimes (i.e., Heiltsuk, communal and state, private) have been enacted and/or could be in the future, this finding quantitatively supports Harris’

(2001) observation that competing (indeed, overlapping) territorialities are at play on the central coast of BC.

19

2.4.2 Finding Two: spatial overlap between 1997 BC SCCA Study and clam garden sites

The second key finding is that 9 of 10 sites within the study area identified by the

Provincial Government in SCCA (1997) as viable for clam, oyster, and/or scallop aquaculture fall within spaces subsequently delineated as ‘green’ for geoduck aquaculture applications. This finding suggests potential for conflict even amongst different participants in shellfish aquaculture, and may place HIRMD’s interest in locally-owned shellfish aquaculture businesses

(see HIRMD 2011, and more to come in discussion) in tension with external applicants who may wish to grow different species and/or obtain different leases in the same places. It also reminds that Provincial and Federal government visions for shellfish aquaculture expansion in BC might differ, or perhaps, that Provincial priorities have shifted towards Federal interests in geoduck aquaculture expansion over time. Finally, cause for concern is once again raised here that shellfish aquaculture tenures and shellfish farming activities (like beach leveling, or the use of

PVC tubing to protect juvenile geoduck) that take place on or adjacent to clam gardens could damage their rock wall terraces. Surveys to locate clam gardens and risk assessments regarding potential damage from a range of activities should take place throughout coastal BC.

2.4.3 Finding Three: Overlap between DFO geoduck aquaculture tenures and total Heiltsuk shellfish harvest/cultural use patterns.

Within the study area, 294 of the 348 (84.4%) Heiltsuk harvest features (clam gardens and HTUS sites) mapped for the project fall within ‘green’ and ‘yellow’ DFO geoduck tenure sites. This high occurrence of spatial overlap is likely related to the large area covered by both green and yellow polygons (81 km²). However, it is interesting to note that only 54 (15.5%) of the study area features fall within the 37 km² area covered by ‘red’ and ‘no-go’ polygons

20 together. In addition to raising questions about whether spaces with clam gardens may also be attractive for shellfish aquaculture, this finding suggests significant potential for Heiltsuk access to contemporary shellfish harvest sites to be affected should expansion occur. Ideally, the final version of the DFO Integrated Geoduck Aquaculture Management Framework will further clarify just how First Nations’ intertidal and nearshore harvest areas (for FSC, as well as commercial) are to be considered and weighted in the geoduck aquaculture application review process. First Nation-driven research that assesses and categorizes the economic, cultural and food security implications of geoduck aquaculture expansion may also be appropriate.

2.4.4 Finding Four: Existing spatial overlap between identified clam garden sites and HTUS locations.

Although privacy and confidentiality restrictions mean that the specific locations of clam gardens cannot be shown on publically-circulated maps, the digitized maps of HTUS (2013) data and locations discussed the interview transcripts suggest that intertidal harvesting for clams, cockles, and other species has occurred on or adjacent to all 27 clam gardens identified within the study area, and that some clam gardens remain particularly important sources of commercial and/or food, social, and ceremonial resources today. This suggests that clam gardens constructed and cultivated by Heiltsuk ancestors have been harvested by multiple generations of Heiltsuk and could indicate that clam garden management served to increase shellfish productivity and frequency.

2.5 Discussion and Conclusions

I have now presented four key findings that emerged through the research. Notably, clam garden sites in the study area often fall within spaces identified in government classification and

21 mapping studies as open for possible shellfish aquaculture expansion. Moreover, HIRMD- gathered data (HTUS 2013) indicate that clam gardens constructed by Heiltsuk ancestors were cultivated and/or harvested over multiple generations, and suggest that several clam garden spaces continue to be regularly harvested by Heiltsuk members today. These findings show that, just as on land, GIS is well-suited to organize, synthesize, and represent quantitative and qualitative information in ways that engage spatially with territorial ocean spaces. With the remainder of the paper, I will make three broader arguments supported by the findings.

First, the research identified and enumerated overlap amongst DFO-delineated polygons coloured to identify spaces and signify review procedure for geoduck aquaculture applications;

Heiltsuk clam gardens and intertidal/nearshore harvest areas; and, Provincially-identified sites for possible clam, oyster, and scallop tenures. This demonstrates that there are competing interests in ocean spaces within the study area and raises the possibility of Heiltsuk resistance to shellfish aquaculture expansion if tenures were granted or developed without the explicit approval of Heiltsuk leadership. However, HIRMD suggests that Heiltsuk leadership may well choose to pursue or permit shellfish aquaculture operations within their territory for the economic benefit of Heiltsuk members (HIRMD 2011). More fundamental than competing interests, then, is the issue of ‘competing territorialities’ as outlined by Harris (2001) and quantitatively reconfirmed by this research. Specifically, shellfish aquaculture operates under a property model wherein private access rights to specific ocean spaces are leased by sector participants (including participating First Nations) from issuing government departments (Silver

2013, 2014). This reaffirms the sovereign authority of the state in oceans governance and brings in steady revenue to government from annual tenure fees. First Nations in other parts of the province have suggested frustration with these contradictions (Joyce and Cannessa 2009; Joyce

22 and Satterfield 2010). The state-led private marine tenure model for shellfish aquaculture stands to be perceived all the more inflammatory with clam gardens now the focus of significant academic attention and public interest.

Second, the area covered by DFO-delineated ‘green’ and ‘yellow’ polygons in the study area, and the number of HTUS (2013) harvest sites that fall within them, indicate that shellfish aquaculture expansion could reduce the access that Heiltsuk members have to harvest and has the potential to physically damage identified and yet-to-be identified clam garden structures. Both opportunities and limitations of MSPs and MPAs come into view here. While each might help to identify and protect clam gardens, defray specific instances of conflict, or improve Heiltsuk access to specific sites, these management initiatives are not poised to resolve deeper legal and constitutional questions about Indigenous ocean spaces. This is important in the context of

Brown et al.’s (2008) observation that “jurisprudence on Aboriginal rights and title” and

“evidence of extensive occupation, management and use of these [foreshore] areas by First

Nations for fish weirs and clam gardens” (pg. 2) may open the door to future First Nation legal cases and claims to ocean territory. Moreover, it is also conceivable that some First Nation community-members and leaders will remain suspicious of the potential for MSP or MPA processes to complicate or contradict their pursuit of territorial claims, or to reinforce the governance authority of non-Indigenous governments and organizations. Indeed, Ayers et al.

(2010) note that the BC Aboriginal Fisheries Commission has raised concerns with the implications of MPA establishment for future treaty negotiations (pg. 262), and found in their own study that various Hul’qumi’num participants perceived MPA no take zones as a potential violation of Aboriginal Rights or as another way that the government might limit Indigenous fishing opportunities (pg. 270).

23

Finally, recalling that settler societies have tended to treat oceans as asocial spaces distinct from land and, as such, ‘empty’ spaces open to colonialized resource development

(Jackson 1995), research and public discussion of clam gardens needs to move away from a dialogue of ‘ancient’ archaeological features (e.g., Groesbeck et al. 2014; Jackley et al. 2015;

Lepofsky et al. 2015) and towards framing them as active territorial spaces. To be clear, many traditional knowledge holders and researchers have been instrumental in documenting and surveying clam gardens in order to better understand their importance culturally, economically, and ecologically to First Nations communities. Nevertheless, an opportunity to connect historic clam garden management with current harvest and governance practices may be lost if research trajectories and terminology remain focused on ‘ancient’ origins. Research that synthesizes and enumerates data about how clam garden spaces have been used by First Nations over time may help to remedy this, as might emerging efforts to reconstruct terraced walls and revitalize the cultural, management, and economic practices associated with clam garden spaces.6

As is true in many places, different understandings of ocean space are foundational to disagreements about marine resource management in BC that occur between Indigenous First

Nations and Settler governments. Mapping contested ocean space can serve to ‘bridge’ these differing understandings by documenting an array of activities and interests. However, as this research also reminds, tensions are deeply rooted in the fact that overlapping ocean territorialities exist and have yet to be reconciled legally or through a functioning ‘Nation-to-Nation’ governance relationship. From this perspective we can see that controversy stands to emerge if

State-administered property and access regimes change. While MSP and MPAs may help to improve consensus around particular issues, it seems likely that contestation will continue to

6 For example, see the e.g., the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve Clam Garden Restoration project: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/bc/gulf/natcul/natcul6/natcul6b.aspx.

24 simmer so long as First Nations’ ocean territories remain broadly unacknowledged and legally unaddressed.

3 THESIS CONCLUSIONS

Indigenous peoples have a long history of active territorial management on the Northwest

Coast of North America (Turner and Berkes 2006; Turner et al. 2013). Clam gardens illustrate that, like landscapes, seascapes have been intentionally cultivated and have economically and nutritionally supported Nations for millennia (Turner and Berkes 2006; Cannon and Burchell

2009; Turner et al. 2011; Lepofsky and Caldwell 2013). Using GIS mapping, this thesis has enumerated and examined the location of clam gardens and shellfish harvest sites. It reveals spatial overlap, competing territorialities, and raises questions about contemporary oceans governance processes. The remainder of this chapter will summarize findings, contributions, and future research opportunities.

3.1 Key Findings and Arguments

This research sought to better understand interrelationships amongst clam gardens, contemporary Heiltsuk shellfish harvest sites, and ocean spaces identified for potential shellfish aquaculture development via private marine tenure. The research objectives were to: create a GIS data base and base map which identified documented Heiltsuk clam gardens and contemporary intertidal harvest sites; overlay the base map with polygons representing areas identified in

Provincial and Federal documents as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases; and, enumerate and discuss overlaps between clam gardens, Heiltsuk shellfish harvest and use sites, and areas identified as open to application for private shellfish aquaculture tenure leases. The analysis presented in this thesis focused on enumerating and critically discussing overlaps between clam gardens, contemporary shellfish harvesting, and possible shellfish aquaculture expansion sites. The full GIS database and maps have been returned to Heiltsuk leadership.

26

The total space in the study area delineated as open to consideration for geoduck tenure by DFO in IGMF (2013) is 118km2. Of the 27 identified clam gardens in the study area, 18 fall within ‘green’ identified areas, one falls within ‘yellow’ identified areas, four fall within ‘red’ identified areas, and four fall within ‘no-go’ areas. This is important for two reasons. First, 19 identified clam gardens fall within spaces that, with final approval of the draft IGMF (2013) document, will be open to application for geoduck aquaculture (18 of these are within green spaces where proposed tenure size is not limited). Second, commercial geoduck fisheries

(described by Klain et al. 2014) have been occurring in close proximity to another 4 clam gardens. Having identified specific locations where very different governance and property regimes (i.e., Heiltsuk, communal and state, private) have been enacted and/or could be in the future, this key finding quantitatively supports Harris’ (2001) observation that competing

(indeed, overlapping) territorialities are at play on the central coast of BC.

In addition to overlap with clam gardens, areas delineated as ‘green’ and ‘yellow’ overlap with 280 of the 348 (80.5%) of the Heiltsuk shellfish harvest areas. This raises cause for concern that shellfish aquaculture tenures and shellfish farming activities (like beach leveling, or the use of PVC tubing to protect juvenile geoduck) that take place on or adjacent to clam gardens could damage their rock wall terraces. It also suggests the potential that Heiltsuk shellfish harvesters could be displaced should geoduck aquaculture expansion proceed and new private marine tenures become formalized. Ideally, the final version of the DFO Integrated Geoduck

Aquaculture Management Framework will further clarify just how First Nations’ intertidal and nearshore harvest areas (for FSC, as well as commercial) are to be considered and weighted in the geoduck aquaculture application review process.

27

Finally, the digitized maps of HTUS (2013) data and the interview transcripts suggest that intertidal harvesting for clams, cockles, and other species has occurred on or adjacent to all

27 clam gardens identified within the study area, and that some clam gardens remain particularly important sources of commercial and/or food, social, and ceremonial resources today. This suggests that clam gardens constructed and cultivated by Heiltsuk ancestors have been harvested by multiple generations of Heiltsuk and could indicate that clam garden management served to increase shellfish productivity and frequency. Particularly productive or frequently-harvested clam garden spaces identified through this project could be internally considered by HIRMD as candidates for focused study regarding continuity of use, traditional ownership, and governance regimes and/or for community reconstruction and management. Archaeologists, ethnographers, and HIRMD will no doubt continue to explore these avenues.

These key findings support three broader arguments. First, the findings demonstrated the potential for conflicting sovereign interests within the study area. Heiltsuk resistance and conflict could occur if the community is not explicitly included and collaborated with during the decision making process. The Heiltsuk are not inherently opposed to shellfish aquaculture proposals within their territory, and have expressed interest in the economic benefits to their community which shellfish aquaculture could bring. What is important is that Heiltsuk are consulted during the development phases and implementation of these projects, and have meaningful opportunity to deny, revise, and/or be involved in site-specific development. This is especially important, as clam gardens currently being surveyed in Heiltsuk territory pose new possibilities for Indigenous sovereign claims to marine harvest spaces.

Second, the findings suggest that current DFO shellfish aquaculture expansion efforts have the potential to negatively impact First Nations’ access to intertidal spaces. Researchers,

28 such as Ban et al. (2008), Augustine and Dearden (2014), Bendell (2015), Berkes (2015), Brown et al. (2010), Dumbauld et al. (2009), Jackley et al. (2015), Lepofsky et al. (2015) and Silver

(2014), have argued concerns that failure to include First Nations communities in marine resource planning policies can result in marginalization and loss of access to important harvest areas and economic opportunities. Clam gardens suggest a history of continued use, management and exclusive familial ‘ownership’ within specific intertidal ocean spaces (White

2006; Nefstead 2012). As such, clam gardens remain important to coastal First Nations – not only as cultural sites, but as potentially central to future discussions of marine harvest access rights and Aboriginal title. Rather than risking potential damage to clam garden sites (both identified and not), it remains important that these areas are fully surveyed, and the potential impacts of privatized aquaculture on these important harvest sites are minimized, before further expansion of geoduck tenure locations is established.

Finally, this thesis argues for a perceptual shift towards recognizing clam gardens as active First Nations’ territorial spaces. While there have been important research contributions for producing better understandings of Indigenous mariculture as illustrative of best governance practices and sustainable conservation harvest efforts, a lot of discussion tends to frame these practices as ‘ancient’ mariculture rather than promoting a paradigm shift which fully recognizes these features as relevant and evolving territorial spaces.

3.2 Research Contributions and Future Research Opportunities

As is true in many places, different understandings of ocean space are foundational to disagreements about marine resource management in BC that occur between Indigenous First

Nations and Settler governments. Mapping contested ocean space can serve to ‘bridge’ these differing understandings by documenting an array of activities and interests. This case study

29 supports the arguments of several researchers (Bennett et al. 2015; Joyce and Cannessa 2009;

Paasi 2011; Stelzenmuller et al. 2013) that GIS can be a powerful tool for Indigenous peoples as they assert sovereignty ocean spaces and seek greater authority in governance processes surrounding fisheries management, MPAs, and MSP. Moreover, GIS can be used outside of these State processes to help reveal how tensions that emerge through contemporary oceans governance are actually rooted competing territorialities.

A second contribution this of this research is the GIS database and maps that have now been returned to Heiltsuk leadership. Given colonial histories for appropriation of Indigenous knowledge and territories through cartography and research (Brealey 1995; Tuhiwai-Smith

2012), it is appropriate for the Heiltsuk to retain the rights to control the maps created for this research, and to use the compiled data-bases for means of their choosing. Other project deliverables, also in accordance with the research MoU, included two educational posters for

Heiltsuk use internally. These posters were designed to assist HIRMD in community education regarding clam garden research, in order to aid community members in future identification of these features and to help the community better understand the importance clam gardens have in future resource use planning.

This case study suggests a need for social science research regarding public perceptions of and discourses about clam gardens. As stated previously, it is important to understand clam gardens, not as sites of ‘ancient’ mariculture, but as evidence of current, active Indigenous territorial spaces. This shift, both academically and in public understanding, is necessary for ensuring inclusion and collaboration of First Nations’ knowledge and practice in future marine governance legislation. Inclusion of these systems of knowledge in contemporary governance

30 decisions may serve to increase First Nations community well-being, ensure sustainable marine harvests for the future, and ultimately serve to reduce current sovereign conflicts in ocean space.

Brown et al. (2010) and Nefstead (2012) have suggested that coastal First Nations may consider petitioning Provincial and/or Federal courts with the argument that clam gardens demonstrate their longstanding use, occupancy, and management of territorial ocean waters.

While it is beyond the scope of this research to comment on the likelihood of future actions by the Heiltsuk or any other coastal First Nations, the ongoing cartographic documentation and analysis of Indigenous sites, narratives, and knowledge in ocean space stands to strengthen this possibility. Cartography of this nature serves to conclusively demonstrate that, like Indigenous landscapes, Indigenous seascapes are complex spaces defined by unique socio-political and socio-ecological characteristics. It is precisely this type of understanding that has advanced terrestrial Rights and Title claims.

Finally, the base maps created for this project can be used for future clam garden studies by First Nations leadership as well as archaeologists, ecologists, and social scientists.

Specifically, as greater numbers of clam gardens are identified and, spatial analysis tools available in GIS may allow for statistical analysis that help to predict or quantify clam garden locations. This data base may assist researchers to make more expedient decisions for where clam gardens are most likely to be found and to speak to statistical relationships between clam gardens and other topological, oceanographic, ecological, and human-constructed features.

5 APPENDIXES

Appendix One: Clam Gardens and their Importance to Coastal First Nations Communities

Clam gardens are important to both researchers and Indigenous communities for several reasons. First, they inform archaeological understandings of coastal First Nations’ management and harvest practices. Second, they may inform sustainable resource planning for the future.

Finally, they raise questions regarding First Nations’ rights and title to ocean spaces and marine resources in BC (Brown et al. 2010; Nefstead 2012; Augustine and Dearden 2014). This appendix will highlight these considerations, and reinforce the need for community-based cartography for social science research and resource planning objectives which include clam gardens and Indigenous shellfish harvest locations in governance planning.

The ‘Identification’ and legal significance of Clam Gardens

Clam gardens were identified by settler society when John Harper noticed human-built intertidal walls during aerial surveys along the Broughton Archipelago in 1995 (Harper 1995).

These features were previously undocumented in archaeological literature, and were absent from government-catalogued documents. Harper termed these features “clam terraces”, and identified three distinct morphologies common to all of them. These included: (1) a ridge of boulders and cobbles creating a wall at the lower tide line; (2) a sandflat or bedrock, which was covered with sediments and shell and barnacle fragments; and (3) a veneer of rocks on top of bedrock at the top of the bed (Harper, 1995:2). This definition has since been modified due to further research.

Lepofsky et al. (2015) now suggest that clam garden morphology can vary, depending on

44 cultural and environmental variables (Lepofsky et al. 2015:244). What remains consistent is evidence of built inter-tidal rock walls (Lepofsky 2015) (Figures 1,2,3).

Rock wall, built at low tide line;

Figure 3: Classic morphology of a clam garden feature at low tide in the Broughton Archipelago. Note the built rock wall in the forefront and bedrock bounding either side of the bed. Groesbeck et al (2014) suggest that these rock walls encourage greater shellfish productivity and growth. (Image Source: Harper, 1995).

Figure 5: Diagram of a walled clam garden profile. Current research conducted by Lepofsky et al. (2015) suggests that beach profiles below the rock wall may actually vary, depending on the environment in which the beach was managed. (Source: Augustine and Dearden 2014:308).

More recently, researchers have indicated a potential for clam gardens to better inform planning objectives, both ecologically and in resource management. Groesbeck et al. (2014) suggest that, based on ecological studies, clam gardens were managed to increase productivity and support large populations of coastal First Nations people. The authors conclude their arguments, stating, “ Documenting these traditional practices and their ecological and sociological benefits will help First Nations during a pivotal time, as First Nations continue to assert their rights to access traditional lands and resources and secure sustainable food production into the future” (Groesbeck et al. 2014:11).

Augustine and Dearden (2014) approach the study of clam gardens from a marine conservation and management perspective. They suggest that marine protected areas (MPAs) on the west coast are currently managed in ways that may exclude or marginalize First Nations communities from traditional harvest activities and resource planning (306). Current management strategies for ecosystem conservation and marine harvest governance involve establishing protected areas and exclusionary zones which restrict occupation and use in specific

47 areas (Augustine and Dearden 2014; Berkes 2015). In their case study, Augustine and Dearden suggest that a greater focus on First Nations’ mariculture (e.g., clam garden) activities can not only assist conservation efforts in MPAs, but also reduce conflicts and promote better relations with First Nations through collaborative management practices (Augustine and Dearden 2014).

Coastal First Nations communities often have a vested interest in rights and access to clam garden sites – not only for traditional food harvest reasons – but from the perspective that governance also from local understandings of sovereignty and Aboriginal title to territorial ocean spaces has not been formally resolved with the Canadian state.

In 1973, the Canadian government made a decision to allow First Nations communities to legally negotiate contemporary comprehensive land and resource claims (Usher et al. 1992).

Despite this decision, however, many negotiations remain unresolved today (Usher et al. 1992).

Until 1990, BC refused to participate in many of these discussions, and often claimed Aboriginal title no longer existed (Usher et al. 1992). Today, First Nations must demonstrate Aboriginal title by proving that their claim to land or resources exists through continuous use and occupancy. What makes this burden of proof especially difficult in BC, however, is the absence of established colonial Treaties (Usher et al. 1992). While negotiations and settlements have tended to focus on terrestrial spaces and resources, questions about Aboriginal rights and title to ocean spaces and marine resources are gaining some traction (Brown et al. 2010).

Clam gardens are legally and politically important in this context because they demonstrate longstanding cultivation, occupancy, and use within specific territorial intertidal spaces. Some suggest, therefore, that clam gardens could be engaged as evidence in negotiations or legal processes pursued by First Nations (Brown et al. 2010; Nefstead 2012). While it is not the intent of this thesis to engage closely with legal questions and processes, I do engage with the

48 fact that clam gardens in Heiltsuk territory are often located within the same spaces identified by

Provincial and Federal Government agencies for shellfish aquaculture expansion. This proximity could serve to ignite future conflicts in spaces the Heiltsuk regard as sovereign territory.

HEILTSUK BAND RESEARCH REGISTRATION FORM Name: Katrina Stephany Address: c/o Department of Geography University of Guelph 50 Stone Road East. Guelph, ON N1G 2W1

Telephone, Fax, email: Katrina Stephany: 519-803-1418, [email protected] Graduate Supervisor: Dr. Jennifer Silver: 519-824-4120 (ext. 52176), [email protected]

Title of Research Project: Clam Gardens in Heiltsuk Territory: using GIS to build synthesized maps of intertidal sites, oral histories, and harvest practices.

Detailed project description Summary Using GIS, this proposed project will build multi-layer maps of intertidal clam garden sites, prominent Heiltsuk clam harvest sites, ocean waypoints and places, and proposed shellfish aquaculture tenures. With this data in a GIS database, the research will examine spatial relationships and patterns between clam gardens and other intertidal and nearshore features, spaces and activities in Heiltsuk territory. These objectives have emerged out of several conversations between Jennifer Carpenter of HIRMD and my Graduate supervisor, Jennifer Silver, and they are meant to coordinate with existing HIRMD mapping expertise and projects. This research project will be completed towards my MA degree in Geography at the University of Guelph and falls under the umbrella of the ‘Clam Garden Network’ – coordinated by Dr. Dana Lepofsky of Simon Fraser University (SFU).

92 The proposed GIS analysis, and resulting maps, will be populated with numerous layers to be determined in consultation with HIRMD and any other relevant Heiltsuk organizations or individuals. Examples discussed by Jennifer Carpenter and Jennifer Silver include:

 locations of known clam garden sites;  clam harvest sites frequented both historically and today;  other intertidal and nearshore archaeological features;  Prominent ocean waypoints and places described in Heiltsuk history and oral stories; and,  contemporary shellfish aquaculture sites.

The GIS database and map layers might be used in resource management and economic development planning and/or in scenarios where HIRMD or Band Council wish to provide evidence of diverse intertidal use/occupation. The maps and GIS database will be retained by HIRMD and decisions about what to do with them will be to the discretion of HIRMD.

A wealth of data is housed already by HIRMD and the Cultural Centre. Jennifer Silver has gathered numerous publically available reports detailing potential shellfish aquaculture sites identified by the Provincial and Federal government, and interviews pertinent to shellfish harvest and clam garden management conducted by Nicole Smith and Elroy White are also promising. If data gaps are seen to exist by HIRMD or myself after these data sources have been exhausted, then additional interviews may be sought.

The outcomes of this project will include a GIS database and maps to be retained by HIRMD. My MA thesis will detail the methods through which maps were produced (i.e., the types of data gathered and how analysis was conducted) as well as a discussion of findings from spatial analysis regarding clam garden sites relative to other intertidal and nearshore features, oral histories, and contemporary shellfish aquaculture tenures. This type of analysis can offer insight into the kinds of features (ecological, archaeological, and economic) which clam gardens tend to be found around. Designed this way, the maps (or parts thereof) could be included in my MA thesis, but the thesis will not rest on the inclusion of the maps. Again, decisions about what to do with the maps and GIS database after I complete the project will be left to the discretion of HIRMD.

Additional details I propose to arrive in Bella Bella on approximately May 20, 2014. Recognizing the busy time that Tribal Journeys will be for your community in mid-July, I propose to conclude my stay on July 9. I am hopeful that this May 20 to July 9 stay would provide enough time to meet with officials from HIRMD, gather feedback, collect and synthesize data, and build the maps for spatial analysis. If needed, I could return to Bella Bella for a few weeks late July – early August. During the period of Tribal Journeys I intend to work in the Vancouver and Victoria archives looking for references to shellfish cultivations, as well as journal entries pointing to colonial trade recorded by explorers, ethnographers and traders. To the best of our (myself, Jennifer

93

Silver, and Dana Lepofsky) knowledge, a systematic search through these documents for evidence of shellfish cultivation, use and trade has not been conducted. By way of further introduction, I would like to share a few additional pieces on my background:  B.Sc. in Environmental Studies (U. of Vermont) and B.A. in Geography (U. of Fraser Valley);  Certificate in Indigenous Studies from U. of Fraser Valley (for more info on the certificate, see here: http://www.ufv.ca/geography/programs/landclaims/);  Several years of experience with GIS mapping, and my undergraduate thesis focused on mapping Blackfoot territory in Alberta. Mostly worked with ArcMaps and Arcview, including versions 9.3, 9.3.1, 10, 10.1, 10.2, as well as GoogleEarth; and,  Assisted in data collection and creation of digital maps for a research project on informal settlements in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
