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...

The goal of this project is to examine the status of riparian forest ecosystems adjacent to fish-bearing and non-fish-bearing streams in the Nichyeskwa Creek watershed. The project estimates the disturbance frequency in natural riparian forests along...

The research outlined in this report answers questions relating to the estuarine environment and ecology of the Skeena River estuary, with a focus on juvenile salmon. Additionally, it includes information on the estuarine fish community, crab ecology, and...

This report by the Wet'suwet'en Nation and Fisheries and Oceans Canada is intended as a framework towards the recovery of sockeye in the Morice Recovery Unit.

The following summary first describes the general research process for the overall project, notes deviations from the project plan, and then summarizes key findings and outcomes from each of the four components of the project. This is followed by a...

The objective of this project was to conduct a Reconnaissance (1:20,000) Fish and Fish Habitat Inventory in several watersheds within the Bulkley River (BULK) watershed group. These inventories have a multi-phased approach with six phases required to...

Surveys of juvenile steelhead fry and parr abundance were conducted on four steelhead systems tributary to the Skeena River in northwestern B.C. for three consecutive years. The four systems assessed were the Kitwanga, Morice, Sustut and Zymoetz (Copper)...

This Bulkley fish passage assessment is part of a larger regional effort to improve fish passage limited by highways and secondary roads throughout the Skeena Basin. The purpose of this report is to present background information and survey results for fish...

Weblink to the STREAM website. STREAM (Sequencing the Rivers for Environmental Assessment and Monitoring) is a new community-based project that involves the collection of benthic macroinvertebrates from rivers across Canada to generate a better...

Klohn-Crippen Consultants Ltd. was retained by the Fisheries Branch of the Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks in Smithers, British Columbia, to conduct a reconnaissance survey of Boucher Lake (alias - Watershed Code unknown), which lies within the...

The study area is located in the Bulkley River drainage (watershed code 460) of the Skeena River watershed in north-central British Columbia (Figure 1). Selected streams in the area were inventoried for stream classification under the Forest Practices Code...

Selected tributaries to the Fulton River, upstream of the falls below Fulton Lake, related to cutting permits were inventoried for fish and fish habitat assessment, and stream classification under the Forest Practices Code (FPC).

Department of Fisheries and Oceans annual reports of salmon streams and spawning populations for the Upper Bulkley River 1945-2004

Watson Lake was surveyed as a part of the Burns Lake-Houston small lakes project in which a total of 10 lakes were examined: Sunset, Gilmore, Swans, Lars, Old Man, McBrierie, Elwin, Watson, Day, and Bulkley lakes. The primary focus of this work was on...

This report summarizes past fish inventory efforts and results in context with data collected during re-sampling to present a comprehensive picture of fish distribution in the upper Peter-Aleck drainage.

This one-page report contains information regarding stream identification, spawning data, and the physical condition of spawning grounds in Buck Creek.

This report provides a protocol for Tier 1 watershed-level fish monitoring based on remote-sensed or broad-scale habitat inventory data available for all watersheds in regularly updated and readily accessible agency GIS Layers. Information from Tier 1...

The Upper Bulkley Fish and Aquatic Review project produced a set of analyses focused on select pressure and quantity indicators as determined by the Wild Salmon Policy Strategy 2. Pressure Indicators included are Road Density, Riparian Disturbance, and...

Points where a fish passage assessment has been performed on a stream crossing structure and found to be a failure. Design points have been identified as a priority for remediation based on a variety of potential criteria: quality of habitat upstream,...
