Tel.: +1 306 690 0573. E-mail address: [email protected] (S. Rayne). Management of groundwater quantity and quality is an important resource development issue in Canada [1]. Overuse and/or contamination of groundwater supplies has the potential to restrict future use of this resource [2]. In the western Canadian coastal province of British Columbia, increasing attention is being paid to the scientific and legislative/regulatory aspects of surface and groundwaters. Aquifer types in the province have been classified [3] and various investigations have employed case-study type approaches to determine the status of groundwater resources, developed rigorous quantitative models of representative aquifers with predictive capacity, and attempted to assess future changes due to natural and/or anthropogenic forcings (see, e.g., ref. [4-16] and references therein). In our previous work, we examined temporal trends in groundwater monitoring wells for the western Canada prairie province of Saskatchewan [17]. We found that groundwater resources in this region generally appear to be increasing over time and do not appear to be under current threat from depletion. As part of the current study, we have conducted a similar investigation on time trends for groundwater monitoring well levels in British Columbia. -

Regulating and Monitoring British Columbia’s Marine Finfish Aquaculture Facilities 2018 Fisheries and Oceans Pêches et Océans Canada Canada 2 Marine Finfish Aquaculture in BC LOCATIONS OF MARINE FINFISH AQUACULTURE SHARE OF FACILITIES PRODUCTION BIOMASS Marine finfish aquaculture facilities are mainly located around northern and western BY SPECIES Vancouver Island. There are clusters of sites in several areas, such as Clayoquot Sound, the Port Hardy area, the Broughton Archipelago, and the Discovery Islands. All marine Atlantic Salmon finfish aquaculture facilities with a valid licence as of December 31, 2018 are shown 95.7% in the map on the following page. Chinook Salmon 2.7% MARINE FINFISH SPECIES CULTIVATED IN BC Sablefish Most marine finfish aquaculture licences are issued for salmon, with Atlantic Salmon 1.6% (Salmo salar) and Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) being the most commonly farmed fish in BC. Some other species, such as SablefishAnoplopoma ( fimbria), are also cultivated on a smaller scale. Atlantic Salmon is the preferred species for cold water marine finfish cultivation around the world because these fish feed well on pellets, are efficient at converting food to body mass, grow quickly, and are well adapted to the confines of a net pen. HOW FISH FARMING IS REGULATED IN CANADA Fish farming is jointly managed among federal, provincial and territorial governments. How it’s managed varies across provinces and territories. Across Canada, fish farming is managed sustainably under the Fisheries Act. Federal partners -

Ships Point Awarded $200K!
FANNY BAY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION Fannybaycommunity.com September 2015 Newsletter Date Volume 1, Issue 1 Ships Point awarded $200K! Canada will be 150 years old in 2017. In celebration of this momentous occasion, the federal government an- nounced the Canada 150 program. The program will invest $150 million dollars over two years in communi- ty infrastructure. In June, the Ships Point Improvement District board applied to Western Economic Diversifi- cation Canada (WD), who is delivering the program in western Canada, for a $200,000 grant to help towards Phase Two of our water system project. Two weeks ago we got the news that our grant application was ap- proved for the full amount! On July 30, 2015 Minister John Duncan announced five awards for Northern Vancouver Island at a ceremony in front of Courtenay City hall. Gary Patterson, the Chair of the SPID board attended the ceremony: “Ships Point Improvement District is delighted to be one of the recipients under the Canada 150 Community Infra- structure Program. It is great for a small, self- supporting community to be given the recognition and help with replacing our aging water system.” For Ships Point ratepayers, the Canada 150 grant, along with a previous grant for $75,000, will mean a sav- ings of about $1,000 per household. Special congratulations and thank you to Nina LeBlanc, Frank Green, Bill Trussler and Pat Edwards for all their hard work on behalf of Ships Point ratepayers.

Staff Report
STAFF REPORT DATE: September 3, 2021 FILE: 0540-04 EASC TO: Chair and Directors, Electoral Area Services Committee FROM: Dave Leitch Chief Administrative Officer RE: COMMUNITY RESILIENCY INVESTMENT - GRANT OPPORTUNITY PURPOSE To consider an application to the Community Resiliency Investment grant program of the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) to further the Regional District’s efforts to reduce wildfire risks. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Community Resiliency Investment (CRI) grant is a provincial program intended to reduce the risk and impact of wildfires on communities in BC. The general goal of FireSmart is to encourage communities and citizens to adopt and conduct FireSmart practices to mitigate the negative impacts of wildfire to public and private property assets. The program can contribute up to 100% of the cost of eligible activities provided the application has a Council or Board resolution indicating support for the proposed activities and a willingness to provide overall grant management. Regional Districts may submit a single application for eligible, collaborative projects that include multiple electoral areas. The maximum base funding for fuel management is $50,000 plus up to $50,000 for FireSmart activities for each electoral area. All local governments (municipalities and regional districts) and First Nations (bands and Treaty First Nations) in BC are eligible to apply. Eligible applicants may submit one application per intake. The deadline for the next intake of applications is October 8, 2021. It is proposed that an application be submitted by the Regional District to undertake a number of FireSmart activities in each electoral area as outlined below in detail. If approved, it is anticipated that 100% of the total costs of the FireSmart activities would be covered by the grant award.
