Triton Environmental Consultants Ltd. (Triton) was retained by Northwood Pulp and Timber Ltd. (Northwood) to conduct a Reconnaissance (1:20 000 scale) Fish and Fish Habitat Stream Inventory (inventory) in the Houston Tommy Creek watershed. The project was part of a larger inventory of three areas managed by Northwood in the Morice Timber Supply Area (TSA). The area of inventory included the Houston Tommy Creek watershed and an unnamed Morice River tributary to the west of the Houston Tommy Creek/Morice River confluence.
The project was funded by a Forest Renewal of British Columbia (FRBC) initiative to describe watershed-wide fish distribution and habitat characteristics for major watershed groups within the province of British Columbia.
