    2016 Yellowknife Geoscience Forum Abstract and Summary Volume Cover photograph Mackenzie Mountains foothills, NWT; Viktor Terlaky, Senior Petroleum Geologist at the Northwest Territories Geological Survey The picture was taken near the Arctic Red River and shows river cuts and thaw slumps in the Peel Plateau area. Old meets new: the river cuts expose Devonian and Cretaceous strata, some of which are the target of investigation as potential unconventional hydrocarbon plays; thaw slumps are caused by permafrost melting and are interpreted to be the consequence of climate change.

Dear Ms. Fairbairn, The Deninu Kue First Nation (DKFN) is pleased to provide the following response to the Mackenzie Valley Review Board’s information requests to parties regarding the proposal by Diavik Diamond Mine Inc. (Diavik) to put and store processed kimberlite in pits and underground mine workings and its potential adverse impact on people and the environment. Should you require any clarification on our response please contact our technical advisor, Dr. Marc d’Entremont, at [email protected] or 250-656-0127. Sincerely, Chief Louis Balsillie cc. Richard Simon, DKFN Resource Management Coordinator Dr. Marc d’Entremont, LGL Limited (DKFN Technical Advisor) DKFN Response to MVRB IRs (EA1819-01) Information Request No. 1 Source: Mackenzie Valley Review Board Subject: Potential impacts to cultural use of Lac de Gras Area Preamble: As described in the 1999 Comprehensive Study Report for the Diavik Mine, "(t)here is wide- spread concern that traditions and customs are not practiced as they once were, contributing to a lack of common understanding and connection, of shared beliefs and values" (PR#29)3. The Comprehensive Study Report also states "[t]he land gives a sense of place and identity, provides the context for expression, shapes values and beliefs, and influences customs and practices".

Project Title: Cambridge Bay Arctic Char Research: Intra-System Assessment of Genetic Population Structure, Migration and Habitat Use Among Spawning Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus) from the Cambridge Bay Region, NU: Year 2 3. Project Leaders: Les N. Harris Fisheries and Oceans Canada Freshwater Institute 501 University Cres., Winnipeg, MB, R3T 2N6 Ph: (204) 983-5143 Fax: (204) 984-2403 E-mail: [email protected] 4. Summary The culturally important Arctic char is the most harvested species of wildlife in Nunavut and is used by Inuit across the territory for both subsistence and commercial purposes. The Cambridge Bay region of the territory is home to the most important commercial fishery for sea run Arctic char, with annual available quotas totaling 68,000 kg. Effective management of this fishery, however, requires a full understanding of the biological independence of these populations and the degree to which they mix, especially when being targeted in the commercial fisheries. Unfortunately, there are many knowledge gaps with respect to these aspects char biology in the region. Given these questions that still remain, in 2016 we aimed to acoustically tag spawning Arctic char in the Cambridge Bay region while also collecting genetic samples in order to better resolve stock structure (independence of populations) and stock mixing in the region. In 2016 we were successful in finding and tagging Arctic char at three discrete

Distribu- tion is restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. However, no restriction is placed on subject matter, and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, namely, fisheries and aquatic sciences. Manuscript reports may be cited as full-publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report is abstracted in Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts and,indexed in the Department's annual index to scientific and technical publications. Numbers 1-900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Numbers 901-1425 were issued as Manuscript Reports of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada.
