Project Authority: Tracey Loewen Fisheries & Oceans Canada 501 University Crescent Winnipeg, MB, CA R3T 2N6 Other Personnel: Heidi Swanson; Rosie Smith; 2-4 Kugluktuk Community members Objectives: Movement and ecology of Chars and Cods in Coronation Gulf The Coppermine River has historically supported an important subsistence fishery that is critical for the health of Inuit living in Kugluktuk, NU. Since 2015, the Kugluktuk Hunters and Trappers Organization (HTO) and community members have observed a sharp decline in the fall run of migratory Char and lower abundance of Greenland Cod in coastal/marine areas. In this project, we will identify streams and lakes used by migratory Chars using satellite and acoustic telemetry techniques and examine Greenland Cod coastal ecology parameters. We will also be dead sampling Chars and Cods captured through subsistence harvester fishing efforts and/or through gillnetting practices to better understand trophic ecology and life history parameters of the species. CONDITIONS Specified Conditions: In addition to the waterbodies listed on this licence, the following waterbodies may also be sampled with the maximum numbers alive and dead for the species listed: Rae River (general location for sites within the river): 67° 53'N, 115° 49'W Richardson River (general location for sites within the river): 67° 51'N, 115° 31'W Napaaktoktok River (general location for sites within the river): 67° 48'N, 114° 44'W Asiak River (general location for sites within the river): 67° 43'N, 114° 31'W Kikerk Lake: 67° 18'N, 113° 10'W (general location) Eokuk Lake: 67° 24'N, 112° 56'W (general location) The licencee is authorized to sample using trammel nets and a plankton tow net within the Coastal Marine Environments of the Coronation Gulf region.
