For this project, existing fish passage information in the Bulkley River watershed located near Smithers, British Columbia, was reviewed in order to prioritize and rank culverts for further assessment and/or rehabilitation. A detailed review and...

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...

This report has been prepared primarily to describe the fisheries problems associated with a large scale logging operation proposed for the system and to outline certain proposals which are considered necessary for the protection of the salmon resource of...

The purpose of this report is to present background information and survey results for fish passage assessments conducted at Kispiox forestry road stream crossings. The Kispiox fish passage assessment is part of a larger regional effort to improve fish...

This report profiles the current status and trends of 10 examples of salmon stocks in British Columbia that are considered to be in a severe state of decline. (There are many others.) These stocks were selected because they are geographically located within...

This report compiles and summarizes knowledge on the Skeena River Estuary, providing useful background information for those concerned with environmental impacts of these and other contemplated developments.

The Sustut River, situated approximately 200 km north of Smithers, remains as the last major tributary of the Skeena to be investigated. It supports significant populations of summer steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha),...

This study provides a listing of individual stocks and their status classification for the entire Skeena system.

Key points on population and habitat of Skeena salmon conservation units.

This dataset provides a link to a report from the Pacific Salmon Foundation describing the methods and results of a synoptic regional-scale overview of habitat pressures and vulnerabilities for 11 Chinook, 3 coho, 3 chum, 4 pink, and 2 river sockeye...

In 2005, the Skeena Fisheries Commission was retained by the Pacific Salmon Commission to conduct a Fish Passage and Culvert Inspection (FPCI) on all non-bridged stream crossings distinguished with fish presence along Highway #16 between Terrace and Prince...

This document provides a basis for the design phase of an environmental effects monitoring program (EEM) for Repap's pulp and paper mill, Skeena Cellulose Inc., located near Prince Rupert, British Columbia. The pre-design document is essentially a "State of...

Review of the hydrology, geomorphology, ecology and management of the Skeena River floodplain. This review of the natural and human history of the floodplain of the lower Skeena River was initiated to provide background information to support future...

Historical water quality data presented for the Skeena River watershed are divided into nine subsequent sections, corresponding to the nine major watershed reaches. Each section is divided into 6 subsections: hydrology, land use history, water withdrawals,...

The objective of this study was to quantify juvenile steelhead abundance and estimate values for habitat capacity thresholds. In 2005, the Ministry of Environment (MoE) began investigating the potential of using the Kloiya as an index stream for monitoring...

Forest Renewal BC is implementing fish and fish habitat inventories to provide information required for resource planning. Triton's goals were to describe fish distributions and habitat characteristics, and to provide stream classifications according to the...

This fish and fish habitat inventory provides information regarding fish species presence, distribution, and relative abundance, as well as stream reach biophysical data, for use in interpretation of habitat sensitivity and capability for fish production.

This report provides provisional abundance estimates for pink, chum, and sockeye salmon in major regions of the North Pacific from 1952 through 2015 in terms of: numbers of natural- origin and hatchery-origin salmon returns (i.e., catch plus escapement),...

This report documents the leachate and creek water chemistry findings and remove all doubt that the creek is adversely affected.

This Application for an Environmental Assessment Certificate for the KSL Project has been prepared pursuant to Section 16(1) of the B.C. Environmental Assessment Act. The Application includes a description of the project, an outline of the Public and First...
