Population estimate samples for creeks in the Bulkley/Morice region from 1987

The Bulkley River and its major tributary, Morice River, support one of the most intense steelhead trout fisheries in British Columbia. Recent mailed questionnaire surveys of steelhead anglers have shown that the Bulkley-Morice system ranked second in...

The setting of water quality objectives in priority basins in British Columbia began in 1982. By the end of 2002, the Ministry of Water, Land, and Air Protection had set water quality objectives in 51 areas or basins and updated them throughout the...

This report includes an assessment of present water quality, a prediction of future water quality, recommended water uses that should be protected, and recommended monitoring to check whether those objectives are being met and to develop future objectives.

Stock monitoring was conducted at several locations in the Bulkley/Morice system by Regional staff in 1984 and 1985. Many areas were sampled for the first time, and others were repeat (annual) sample sites. Stream-specific data are appended to this general...

This report assess present water quality of the mainstem Bulkley and Morice Rivers, to predict future water quality, and to recommend water uses that should be protected, and to recommend provisional water quality objectives to protect those uses.

This historical report includes: (i) an assessment of water quality using available information (up to April, 1984) on waste discharges, water quality, streamflows, and water uses; (ii) a prediction of future water quality, considering future waste...

The purpose of this report is to present a description of the methodologies used and results of the study undertaken to produce the attached floodplain mapping sheets, Drawings 85-14 Sheets 1 to 3. The study area covers six kilometres of the Bulkley River...

The purpose of this report is to outline results of the 1983 steelhead fry recruitment monitoring program in the upper Bulkley system. The conclusion is that a larger fry population existed in 1983 than in 1981 or 1982. This data will serve as valuable...

Summer-run steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) returning to the Skeena River system were radio-tagged to determine their rates of movement through commercial salmon fisheries near the river mouth. The run timing of individual spawning population was also...

Radio tagging studies were carried out on four Skeena River tributaries and one Nass River tributary in order to more fully understand the life history of summer run steelhead trout. This study aimed to monitor movements of steelhead within the tributaries...

This report describes historical uses of waterways in the Bulkley River. It is a narrative outlines of how Indian and non-native populations have used this river, with emphasis on navigability, tidal influence, riparian interests, settlement patterns,...

Sampling at fish index sites was conducted at five locations in Foxy and Buck creeks for Equity Silver Mines Ltd. from September 1988 to 1991.

Approximately 800 000 m3 of acid mine drainage (AMD) is generated per year at the Equity Silver Mine southeast of Houston. This AMD would have devastating effects on the Bulkley River if it was allowed to flow untreated from the property for a prolonged...

Radio transmitters were placed in 102 Skeena River steelhead during the summers of 1978 and 1979 in order to determine time of entry of specific stocks into the estuary and their potential interception by the commercial gillnet fishery.

This resource from Ecocat is a catalogue containing each stream's location, spawning distribution, barriers and points of difficult ascent, escapement records, and other general data pertaining to the stream. The catalogue also includes a topographical map...

The objectives of the project were to determine angler effort, catch and success rate as well as angler origin, distribution of effort by time and space, and tackle preference.

The Bulkley River and its major tributary, Morice River, support one of the most intense steelhead trout fisheries in British Columbia. Although on—river creel surveys have been conducted in recent years on the Morice River, very little creel data had been...

Provisional water quality objectives had been set in 18 water basins up to February, 1987. In 1986, water quality data relevant to objectives were collected in 14 of the water basins and these data are evaluated in this report. Although the quantity of data...

A study to provide more detailed information on the timing and distribution of adult coho salmon spawning in the Telkwa River Basin was conducted between September and December 1982. Five tributary streams and the mainstem Telkwa River were examined for the...
