(HOI S.) ~- ··- 223870 A GRAVITY SURVEY OF EASTERN NOTRE DAME BAY, NEWFOUNDLAND by @ HUGH G. MILLER, B.Sc. {HCNS.) .. Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science, Memorial University of Newfoundland. July 20, 1970 11 ABSTRACT A gravity survey was undertaken on the archipelago and adjacent coast of eastern Notre Dame Bay, Newfoundland. A total of 308 gravity stations were occupied with a mean station spacing of 2,5 km, and 9 gravity sub-bases were established. Elevations for the survey were determined by barometric and direct altimetry. The densities of rock samples collected from 223 sites were detenmined. A Bouguer anomaly map was obtained and a polynomial fitting technique was employed to determine the regional contribution to the total Bouguer anomaly field. Residual and regional maps based on a fifth order polynomial were obtained. Several programs were written for the IBM 360/40 computer used in this and model work. Three-dimensional model studies were carried out and a satisfactory overall fit to the total Bouguer field was obtained. Several shallow features of the anomaly maps were found to correlate well with surface bodies, i.e. granite or diorite bodies. Sedimentary rocks had little effect on the gravity field. The trace of the Luke's Arm fault was delineated. The following new features we r~ discovered: (1) A major structural discontinuity near Change Islands; (2) A layer of relatively high ·density (probably basic to ultrabasic rock) at 5 - 10 km depth.

Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page.

Number: PL- 557 Date: 20 January 2021 From: Canadian Numbering Administrator (CNA) Subject: NPA 879 to Overlay NPA 709 (Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada) Related Previous Planning Letters: PL-503, PL-514, PL-521 _____________________________________________________________________ This Planning Letter supersedes all previous Planning Letters related to NPA Relief Planning for NPA 709 (Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada). In Telecom Decision CRTC 2021-13, dated 18 January 2021, Indefinite deferral of relief for area code 709 in Newfoundland and Labrador, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) approved an NPA 709 Relief Planning Committee’s report which recommended the indefinite deferral of implementation of overlay area code 879 to provide relief to area code 709 until it re-enters the relief planning window. Accordingly, the relief date of 20 May 2022, which was identified in Planning Letter 521, has been postponed indefinitely. The relief method (Distributed Overlay) and new area code 879 will be implemented when relief is required. Background Information: In Telecom Decision CRTC 2017-35, dated 2 February 2017, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) directed that relief for Newfoundland and Labrador area code 709 be provided through a Distributed Overlay using new area code 879. The new area code 879 has been assigned by the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA) and will be implemented as a Distributed Overlay over the geographic area of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador currently served by the 709 area code. The area code 709 consists of 211 Exchange Areas serving the province of Newfoundland and Labrador which includes the major communities of Corner Brook, Gander, Grand Falls, Happy Valley – Goose Bay, Labrador City – Wabush, Marystown and St.

Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region
Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region May 2013 Prepared by: Janelle Skeard, Jen Daniels, Ryan Gibson and Kelly Vodden Department of Geography, Memorial University Introduction The Kittiwake/Gander – New-Wes-Valley region is located on the north eastern coast of the Island portion of Newfoundland and Labrador. This region is delineated by the Regional Economic Development Zone (Kittiwake) and the provincial Rural Secretariat region (Gander – New-Wes -Valley) (Figure 1), which have closely overlapping jurisdictions. The region consists of approximately 119 communities, spanning west to Lewisporte, east to Charlottetown, and north to Fogo Island (see Figure 1). Most of these communities are located in coastal areas and are considered to be rural in nature. Only six communities within the region have a population of over 2,000, with Gander being the largest community and the primary service centre for the Kittiwake region. Approximately 20 percent of the regional population resides in the Town of Gander (Rural Secretariat, 2013). The region also encompasses three inhabited islands that are accessible only by ferry: Fogo Island, Change Islands, and St. Brendan's (KEDC, 2007, p.2). Figure 1. Map of Kittiwake/Gander-New-Wes-Valley Region Figure 1: Gander – New-Wes Valley (Map Credit: C. Conway 2008) Regional Profile of the Kittiwake Region Page 2 of 14 Brief History The region’s history is vast. Many of its communities have their own diverse histories, which collectively paint a picture of the past. Aboriginal occupation is the first noted settlement in many parts of the region. Research suggests that 5,000 years ago, what we now call Bonavista Bay was inhabited by Aboriginal peoples who benefited from the region’s abundance of resources such as seal, salmon and caribou.

A REPORT ON THE BAXTER ANDREWS ARCHAEOLOGY C O L L E C T I O N F R O M C A P E I S L A N D , N E W F O U N D L A N D John Andrew Campbell Memorial University St. John’s, NL Community Collections Archaeological Research Project Volume 2 March 2016 With support from the Cultural Economic Development Program of the Department of Business, Tourism, Culture and Rural Development, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. Finding new archaeological sites is not always an easy job. In this province, archaeological sites do not always leave obvious traces on the ground surface, and so archaeologists use many different approaches to finding new sites. Our techniques might involve the newest modern technology, but they will also certainly involve good old-fashioned field work, and often, a healthy dose of good luck. One of the most important ways that archaeologists can find new sites, though, is to talk to the people who live in and around the places that we work. Often, the archaeologist’s first approach when visiting a region to look for new sites is to find the nearest community, and ask as many people as possible a simple question: “do you know of any place nearby where old artifacts have been found?” The responses we get often lead to the discovery of undocumented archaeological sites, which we can add to the growing database that tracks this province’s cultural heritage. Documenting new sites means recording them in detail: we record a site’s general location on a map and its exact location with a GPS, its condition, how old we think the site might be, and the cultural group that used the site—which is more complicated than it might seem, given Newfoundland and Labrador’s lengthy and varied human history.
