Klohn-Crippen Consultants Ltd. was retained by the Fisheries Branch of the BC Ministry of Environment, Lands, and Parks in Smithers, British Columbia, to conduct a reconnaissance survey of Netalzul Meadow Lake (alias) within the Bulkley River watershed. The...

This survey collected information about the fish species that are present in McQuarrie Lake, as well as information about the physical characteristics of the lake. This included oxygen and temperature profiles, water chemistry data, obstructions,...

The field survey was conducted on September 23 and 24, 1996 by G. Scarborough and J. Calvert. This lake is located east of Nilkitkwa Lake, approximately 6.6 km north of Fort Babine, and has not previously been surveyed. The purpose of this survey was to...

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...

Possible causes of low egg-to-fry survival of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Babine Lake artificial spawning channels were studied from November, 1971 to March, 1972. Concurrent studies were conducted on the Fulton River and Pinkut Creek...

This report documents the results of sampling conducted throughout the Skeena River watershed between 10 August and 2 September, 1996. Summary information is presented for physical and chemical characteristics of habitat as well as various estimates of...

The multi-disciplinary Babine Watershed Change Program (1973) was initiated in 1971-1972 by the Department of the Environment to assess effects of environmental change on Babine salmon and trout production. The program includes paleolimnological studies to...

Interactive summary for Tyhee Lake near Telkwa, BC. This resource includes a brief overview of the lake, a summary of current and historical concerns, list of available information and links to original sources, interactive visualization of water quality...

Interactive summary for Lake Kathlyn near Smithers, BC. This resource includes a brief overview of the lake, a summary of current and historical concerns, list of available information and links to original sources, interactive visualization of water...

This report attempts to predict rearing capacity and optimum escapements for ten non-Babine study lakes around the Skeena River. Its main objectives are recognizing the status of juvenile stocks and trophic status of the ten lakes, along with potential...

This report is the result of studies undertaken in 1984 that evaluated 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...

Weblink to the National Atmospheric Deposition Program website. This website holds data and information on acid rain, atmospheric deposition, and precipitation chemistry.

As part of the Kemano II Environmental Study, Environment Canada, Fisheries Service, initiated a program during 1974-75 to inventory existing water chemistry, plankton and benthic fauna of Morice Lake. The main objectives of this study were to provide data...

During 1974, Environment Canada undertook an additional study of the watershed adjacent to Equity Mining Capital Ltd.'s proposed development near Goosly Lake to supplement water quality baselines established in 1973. Chemistry analysis and 96 hour LC50...

This report illustrates and discusses the temporal trends in groundwater and surface water chemistry before, during, and after mining. It is based on empirical and predicted geochemistry and on the latest groundwater modelling using the MODFLOW model.

This interactive maps shows the locations and trends for a network of 42 water quality stations in B.C. rivers operated by the Province of B.C. and Environment Canada. Water samples are collected every two weeks or month are analysed for a range of...

A summary of the studies regarding the Babine Watershed Change Program, with topics ranging from discussion of industrial activities to fisheries and disease outbreaks.

This report addresses the state of the environment in Babine Lake during 1990 after the re-opening of the Bell Mine operations in 1985.

The objectives of this study are determining Babine Lake's current trophic status, plankton community structure, and biomass, and to estimate its current rearing capacity for juvenile sockeye. Furthermore, the study also checks for detectable limnological...
