The Army Corps of Engineers began arriving in Alaska in the middle of March 1942, approximately a month after Pres. Franklin Roosevelt authorized the highway. For their mission, more than 10,000 soldiers brought 250,000 tons of materials. Surveyors worked about 10 miles ahead of the bulldozers, map out the exact route, and the mend behind them cleared the path. A battalion of bulldozers would knock down trees and clear a path approximately 50 to 90 feet across. A battalion of bulldozers cleared the way by knocking down trees in a path roughly 50 to 90 feet across. In fewer than eight months, the seven regiments of the Army Corps of Engineers worked and layed down an astonishing 1,500 miles of highway. The men who built the highway had overcome environmental, technological and physical hardships to complete what many consider one of America's greatest construction projects. -e 0.7 Point of Information Crossing Albert Creek, Yukon 2.1 Roadside highway turnout With garbage stand.

  • Northwest Transmission Line Project: Skii Km Lax Ha Traditional Use and Knowledge Report
    Northwest Transmission Line Project: Skii km Lax Ha Traditional Use and Knowledge Report Prepared By: Updated December 2009 Rescan™ Environmental Services Ltd. TM Vancouver, British Columbia NORTHWEST TRANSMISSION LINE PROJECT Skii Km Lax Ha Traditional Knowledge and Use Study Executive Summary Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to inventory and describe Skii km Lax Ha Traditional Use (TU) and Traditional Knowledge (TK) related to the proposed Northwest Transmission Line (NTL) Project (the Project). Skii km Lax Ha TU/TK was collected between February and November 2007. Work was then suspended when, on November 26, 2007, NovaGold Resources Inc. and Teck Cominco Limited announced a decision to suspend construction of the Galore Creek mine project. As a result of the loss of this main customer, the Province and British Columbia Transmission Corporation (BCTC) suspended the Project for a year. In November 2008, the Province provided a mandate and additional funding to complete the Environmental Assessment. Work then recommenced and discussions about capacity funding and further data were collected between January and September 2009. A mixed methods approach was used to collect TU/TK information from April to September 2009, including desk-based archival research, direct discussions, and two formal interview sessions and mapping sessions. The key findings are summarized in the report, which indicates that the Project study area was, and to a large extent continues to be, well-travelled and frequently used by the Skii km Lax Ha, whose traditional territories intersect the Project from Cranberry River to Ningunsaw Pass (Laxyiip). Skii km Lax Ha traditional activities involve hunting, trapping, and fishing; important areas include historic and berry/plant/mushroom harvesting sites.

  • THE NISGA'a TREATY: Competing Claims Ignored!
    THE NISGA'A TREATY: Competing Claims Ignored! NEIL STERRITT INTRODUCTION HE LAND AREA CLAIMED BY THE NISGA'A in their treaty was greatly expanded at the expense of their tribal neighbours. TIn the prophetic words of Dr. Peter Williams, President of the Gitanyow, following an important meeting with the Nisga'a in 1984, "this is not an overlap the Nisga'a are talking about, it is an act of aggression." This paper will demonstrate that the Nisga'a violate Nisga'a law by their claim to the entire Nass watershed, based on their own evi­ dence that their uppermost boundary is between the Tchitin and Kinskuch Rivers on the lower Nass River. It will show that the provincial and federal governments have ignored established treaty policy and practice concerning the land, rights, and benefits negotiated in the Nisga'a Treaty. Although the Nisga'a have based their treaty negotiations on a claim to 100 per cent of the Nass watershed, their territory actually extends only to an area near the mouth of the Kinskuch River. In the period from 1968 to the present, the Nisga'a have not presented any credible evidence to support their claim north of the Kinskuch River area. In fact, the record shows that Nisga'a elders early in this century provided contrary evidence that today's Nisga'a leaders have chosen to ignore. A 300-page book lays out the evidence for all Aboriginal territorial holdings in the Nass watershed.1 This paper is based on that book, and sets out the evidence for the legitimate boundaries — and a small 1 Neil J.

Schaft Creek Project: Socio-economic Baseline Study . Prepared for Copper Fox Metals Inc. May 2010. SCHAFT CREEK PROJECT: SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE STUDY Executive Summary Executive Summary The proposed Schaft Creek Project is situated in an area containing primarily small, remote communities. This report represents the baseline socio-economic conditions of primary (Tahltan Nation communities) and secondary (Stewart, Terrace and Highway 37) communities in the region of northwestern B.C., including a summary of current economic conditions, available infrastructure, skills and education levels and social and health issues. Socio-economic issues typically observed in the study communities are characteristic of a region in which the economy is strongly tied to fluctuations of the goods sector, specifically in regards to the forestry and mineral exploration industries. Currently this translates to a lack of employment, job training or education opportunities, as well as strains on community infrastructure. In Tahltan Nation communities, high unemployment and a lack of economic diversity is a consistent problem compounded by their remoteness from major centres in the region. Education levels are typically low, though access to post-secondary education is available, and training in trades is relatively high.
