Sixty-eight tributaries to the Bulkley River were examined by topographic maps and air photo interpretation to assess the degree and nature of the impacts on these streams by transportation and hydro-electric powerline corridors and...

This report provides the B.C. Ministry of Environment, Lands & Parks (BCE) with a review of cattle farming in the Skeena Region, and a recommendation for monitoring the impact of cattle and other livestock operations on community watersheds, including...

Interactive dashboard showing spawning habitat pressure results published by the Pacific Salmon Foundation. This dashboard integrates results for freshwater assessment units from the Skeena, Nass, and Central Coast regions which area situated within the...

This report provides visual observations and details of sampling locations for the cruises. The detailed information resulting from the work will be presented in future publications and theses.

The Aquatic Ecosystems assessment protocol currently describes the derivation of a core set of watershed indicators that can be calculated consistently across the province using GIS data layers readily available from GeoBC or other ministry providers. The...

The focus of this report is on Goldcorp’s one closed site in Honduras (San Martin), one closed site in Mexico (Nukay in Guerrero), four closed sites in the United States (Dee and Daisy in Nevada, Rand in California, and Golden Reward in South Dakota) and...

The Equity Silver Mine operated between 1980 and 1994, producing silver, gold, and copper from three open pits and a small underground operation. Mine components include a flooded tailings impoundment constructed from till and waste and quarried rock. This...

Sampling at fish index sites was conducted at five locations in Foxy and Buck creeks for Equity Silver Mines Ltd. from September 1988 to 1991.

The Pacific Salmon Foundation's Salmon Explorer includes salmon status and trends by species and region as well as an interactive map of pressures on Skeena salmon habitat.

This habitat report card was developed by the Pacific Salmon Foundation with technical support from ESSA Technologies. This project summarizes pressures on habitat used by Skeena sockeye for migration, spawning, and rearing, as well as their relative...

The overall goal of this scan is to inform a shared vision for water monitoring and reporting in BC. This scan collected information on surface and groundwater quality and quantity monitoring and reporting in British Columbia, providing examples of who is...

The setting of water quality objectives in priority basins in British Columbia began in 1982. By the end of 2002, the Ministry of Water, Land, and Air Protection had set water quality objectives in 51 areas or basins and updated them throughout the...

The 1984 sampling program for Seymour Lake was designed to provide nutrient loading data for the lake such that a management prescription for the lake and watershed management guidelines could be proposed. Water quality sampling of the lake showed that...

This report from the Skeena Fisheries Commission addresses the shortfalls in the Pacific Booker Minerals' Review Response Report from a fisheries perspective.

This study quantifies the inputs of phosphorus from various sources and determines the extent to which additional phosphorus could be tolerated by each lake without a serious decrease in water quality. Based on this information, appropriate land uses and...

This document details an updated groundwater model for the Davidson EA. Key differences between this version of the model and the previous version are a change in the model domain to allow groundwater to flow to Glacier Gulch and Simpson Creek watersheds...

This resource from Ecocat is a catalogue containing each stream's location, spawning distribution, barriers and points of difficult ascent, escapement records, and other general data pertaining to the stream. The catalogue also includes a topographical map...

An assessment of the effects of the mine development on water flow, water quality and fish and aquatic resources has been carried out by the Proponent as part of its application for an Environmental Assessment Certificate. During the course of the Project...

Sheffield studies and office-based reviews for this Bell-Irving Route Study Report were completed in August 2010. This report presents the results of baseline information collected as well as an evaluation of potential project effects on VECs along the...

The Application should be read in the context that it is the basis for the first major stage of the Environmental Assessment Process as it applies to new mine developments proposed for British Columbia. The purpose of the Application is to provide an...
