Water Quality Effectiveness Evaluations arose out of the Forest and Range Practices Act as a way of measuring the effectiveness of the Act in accomplishing its forest stewardship objectives. The field procedure for Water Quality Effectiveness Evaluation...

These habitat report cards were developed by the Pacific Salmon Foundation with technical support from ESSA Technologies. This project summarizes pressures on habitat used by Skeena salmon for migration, spawning, rearing and incubation, as well as their...

Northern Gateway Pipelines Limited Partnership proposed to design, construct, and operate two pipelines extending from Bruderheim, Alberta, to Kitimat, British Columbia. Field surveys completed included sampling of fish species assemblages and habitat...

Maps of the DFO pacific salmon conservation units by species.

Map series depicting various marine values along the North Coast.

The Northwest pilot has investigated a range of cumulative effect related topics as well as developed methods to assess impacts of industrial development on a selection of values at a broad spatial scale. The goal of the pilot was to improve the consistency...

In 1974 and 1975, the Fish and Wildlife Branch conducted field studies on the fish and wildlife populations in the Nanika-Kidprice system which would be affected by the proposed Kemano II project. The field portion of these studies was funded by B.C. Hydro....

As early as 1970, and continuing into the year 1973, concerned citizens of the Smithers area brought to the attention of the Water Resources Services the fact that nuisance weed growths were occurring (and increasing) in Kathlyn Lake. In response to this...

The purpose of the 2008 Kispiox River Watershed, Forestry Road Crossing Assessment Project was to protect fish habitat by identifying stream crossings within the Cullon, Ironside, and Lower Kispiox Watersheds that are producing road related sediment that...

Intra-regional similarities and inter-regional differences in wild steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) abundance patterns over time throughout British Columbia were identified using Catch-per-Angler-Day (CpAD) as an index of abundance of wild in-river adult...

This dataset contains a link to the Data BC "Forest and Range Evaluation Program Fish/Riparian Monitoring" page. It contains a series of pdf documents associated with the management practices and evaluation of the effectiveness of the management protocols.

Weblink to an interactive map that provides access to the locations of climate research stations in Northern BC and their respective data.

The BC Land Based Investment (LBI) fish passage program is focused on remediating stream crossings that impede freshwater fish migration. The most common barrier to fish is improperly designed and installed closed bottom structures such as culverts....

Exploration during 2015 was designed to located and sample all historic showings and to map the old trenches, shafts and declines within the property. With an estimated 20,000 tons of dump material situated on the Main Zone and another 47 tons on the West...

Studies were undertaken during 1984 to evaluate aquatic resources in the Telkwa Project study area in west-central British Columbia. Stream periphyton, invertebrates and fish populations were assessed in Goathorn and Tenas creeks and the lower Telkwa River....

Juvenile sockeye migration routes and habitat use were explored in this study by examining the abundance of sockeye smolts, the timing of collections, the size of smolts and their diet, and by using microsatellite DNA analysis and mixed stock assignment...

This habitat report card was developed by the Pacific Salmon Foundation with technical support from ESSA Technologies. This project summarizes pressures on habitat used by Skeena sockeye for migration, spawning, and rearing, as well as their relative...

This data report on beach seine samples from the Skeena estuary has information on salmon length/weight relationships, and stomach contents and, results for zooplankton and benthos samples representing the potential prey available for salmon at each beach...
