Circulation Package __________________________________________________ October 2018 Ministry of Municipal Local Government Infrastructure and Finance Branch CIRCULAR Affairs and Housing PO Box 9838 Stn Prov Govt (4th Floor - 800 Johnson St) Victoria BC V8W 9T1 Circular No. 18:14 ARCS File #: 195-20 October 1, 2018 To: All Chief Administrative Officers Re: Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program: Community, Culture and Recreation Program and Rural and Northern Communities Program - Open for Application The Province of British Columbia and Canada have partnered on the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) to fund Green; Community, Culture and Recreation; Public Transit; and, Rural and Northern Communities Infrastructure. The ICIP provides communities across British Columbia a variety of funding opportunities to build sustainable communities, to help create long term economic growth, and to support a low carbon, green economy. On September 12, 2018 Minister Selina Robinson announced the opening of application intakes for the Community, Culture and Recreation Program and the Rural and Northern Communities Program. The Community, Culture and Recreation Program (CCR) will focus on projects that improve citizen’s access to and quality of cultural, recreational and community spaces, including for Indigenous people and vulnerable populations. The CCR Program provides an opportunity for eligible ultimate recipients that are Local Governments, Indigenous applicants, and not-for- profit organizations to seek funding for eligible infrastructure for public use and benefit. The Rural and Northern Communities Program (RNC) will support infrastructure projects for public use and benefit in communities with a population of 25,000 or less and will provide additional funding towards projects in communities with populations of 5,000 or less. -
Mapping Report
Aquifer Classification Worksheet for Wark-Colquitz Aquifer (680) Aquifer number: 680 Proposed name of aquifer: Wark-Colquitz Aquifer (680). Aquifer Classification: IB (14) Aquifer Priority Ranking for Observation Wells: 68.33 Descriptive location of aquifer: The aquifer is found on south-eastern Vancouver Island, covering a land area that includes much of the municipalities of Colwood, Langford, and all of Esquimalt, Victoria, Oak Bay, Saanich, View Royal and District of Highlands. Date: June 2004. (New well information from 092B053 was included and overall statistics were updated on March 13, 2012 by Margaret Scott) NTS mapsheet: 092B/05, 092B/06, 092B/11, 092B/12. TRIM mapsheets: 092B.043, 092B.044, 092B.053, 092B.054. What geological formation does the aquifer belong to? Four bedrock types are included within this single aquifer: Colquitz gneiss, Wark gneiss, Karmutsen volcanics, and Leech River metavolcanic and metasedimentary bedrock. The majority of the aquifer is made up of Paleozoic crystalline igneous and meta-igneous rocks of the West Coast Crystalline Complex, which includes the Wark-Colquitz Complex. This metamorphic complex has been described by Massey (1994), and includes quartz diorite, tonalite, hornblende-plagioclase gneiss, quartz-feldspar gneiss, amphibolite, diorite, agmatite, gabbro, marble and metasediments. On the eastern area of the aquifer, the rock is mainly the Colquitz gneiss, a quartz-rich, layered, dark to light coloured unit that is thought to have formed from sedimentary protolith1. On the mid- to west area of the aquifer is found the Wark gneiss, a darker, more massive, hornblende-rich meta-igneous to meta-volcanic rock formed from an igneous diorite and volcanic protolith, which is interbedded with the lighter Colquitz gneiss. -
North Saanich Council COVID-19 Message #3
North Saanich Council COVID-19 Message #3 April 15, 2020 Welcome to the third edition of our North Saanich Council communication! Please share this message with your North Saanich contacts. We hope that you were all able to enjoy the sunshine and warm temperatures this past weekend. It sure did wonders for the flowers, which are popping up everywhere. We are excited to share that 230 people have now signed up for the District’s email notification system. The District uses this tool to share updates such as COVID-19 news, active development applications, road closures, flushing of the water main, project updates, road safety updates, and more. Our goal is to increase our subscriptions to 500 people! We encourage you to sign up at: https://northsaanich.ca/register-for/notifications/#. The District’s website is your best source of information on North Saanich related matters. Health & Safety We want to thank you for the sacrifices you are making by staying in our community and not traveling, unless for essential reasons. We encourage everyone to continue to stay home and follow the rules set out by the Provincial government. The beautiful weather certainly gets us thinking about camping and travelling to cottages. While it may seem possible to travel safely, it does put our service providers at a greater risk, whether it be the ferry and gas station attendants, the grocery store clerks, folks responding to vehicle maintenance, first responders, etc. It isn’t forever, but it is for now. There was great interest in the number of people using the ferries this past weekend. -

Aquifers of the Capital Regional District

TD227.B7K46 2004 333.91’04’0971128 C2004-960175-X Executive summary This project focussed on the delineation and classification of developed aquifers within the Capital Regional District of British Columbia (CRD). The goal was to identify and map water-bearing unconsolidated and bedrock aquifers in the region, and to classify the mapped aquifers according to the methodology outlined in the B.C. Aquifer Classification System (Kreye and Wei, 1994). The project began in summer 2003 with the mapping and classification of aquifers in Sooke, and on the Saanich Peninsula. Aquifers in the remaining portion of the CRD including Victoria, Oak Bay, Esquimalt, View Royal, District of Highlands, the Western Communities, Metchosin and Port Renfrew were mapped and classified in summer 2004. The presence of unconsolidated deposits within the CRD is attributed to glacial activity within the region over the last 20,000 years. Glacial and glaciofluvial modification of the landscape has resulted in the presence of significant water bearing deposits, formed from the sands and gravels of Capilano Sediments, Quadra and Cowichan Head Formations. -
Bedrock Geology of the North Saanich-Cobble Hill Area, British Columbia, Canada
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF John Michael Kachelmeyer for the degree ofMaster of Science in Geology presented on May 30, 1978 Title: BEDROCK GEOLOGY OF THE NORTHSAANICH-COBBLE HILL AREAS, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA Abstract approved: Redacted for Privacy Keith F./Oles The bedrock of the North Saanich-Cobble Hill areas consists of igneous and sedimentary rocks of Early Jurassic through Late Cretaceous age.Early Jurassic andesitic Bonanza Volcanics are intruded by Middle Jurassic Saanich Granodiorite plutonic rocksand dikes.Late Cretaceous Nanaimo Group clastic rocksnonconformably overlie these Jurassic units.The four oldest formations of the group (Comox, Has lam, Extension-Protection, and Cedar District) are exposed within the study area. The Nanaimo Group formations were deposited within a subsid- ing marine basin (the Nanaimo Basin) located to the east ofsouthern Vancouver Island.Uplift of pre-Late Cretaceous basement rocks on Vancouver Island to the west and on mainland British Columbia tothe east of the basin created rugged, high-relief source areasthat were chemically weathered in a warm tropical climate and mechanically eroded by high-energy braided stream systems. The Comox and Has lam sediments were deposited in response to a continual transgression of a Late Cretaceous seaway overthis rugged terrain.Braided stream systems trending north-northwest into the basin deposited Comox (Benson Member) gravelsand sands onto a high-energy, cliffed shoreline.Erosion of the highlands and transgression of the marine seaway resulted in subduedtopographic relief and the deposition of sediments by low-energymeandering streams within a river traversed coastal plain, followedby silt and clay deposition in tidal flat and lagoonal environments,and finally by sand deposition in a higher energy barrier bar environment.Contin- ued marine transgression resulted in the depositionof massive marine mudstones and cyclic sandstone to mudstone sequencesof the Has lam Formation.
