Telkwa Coal Project: Aquatic Resource Assessment 1985

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. As well potential impacts associated with the proposed coal mine and rail access, and means of mitigating impacts or enhancing fish populations in the area were evaluated.
