Conceptual Fish Habitat Offsetting Plan: Proposed Aurora LNG Project
This Conceptual Fish Habitat Offsetting Plan marks the first step along the path to developing a Final Fish Habitat Offsetting Plan in support of an application for a Fisheries Act Authorization. More immediately, this plan is intended to support Aurora... -
Coalbed Methane & Salmon: Assessing the Risks
This study aims to provide a preliminary assessment of the potential risks and pathways of impacts on salmon and salmon habitat arising from coalbed methane (CBM) development in the Klappan Coalbed Gas Tenure in northwest British Columbia, held by Shell... -

Bulkley Lake Survey 1974
This lake survey evaluates Bulkley Lake. Elements included are the location, physical characteristics, and water quality of the lake, the species present, and the surrounding anthropogenic activities. -
Buck Creek Juvenile Salmonid Emigration Program: Autumn 2000
The Community Futures Development Corporation of Nadina operated a rotary screw trap (RST) on Buck Creek in the upper Bulkley River from August to November, 2000. The purpose of this study was to determine what portion of the coded wire tagged coho salmon... -
Buck Creek Juvenile Salmon Trapping Programs
Juvenile coho, chinook, and rainbow trout/steelhead were sampled for the second and third consecutive years in Buck Creek using a rotary screw trap RST. The RST was sampled nightly to collect data on discharge, water temperature, and trap performance were... -
Biophysical Stream Survey of Fourteen Sockeye Streams Tributary to Babine-Nil...
This stream inventory aims to employ a biophysical method of aquatic systems inventory to the fourteen sockeyes streams, experiment with methodology based on low-level Arial inventory, and provide Fisheries Service personnel with a better data base. -
Biophysical Reconnaissance of the Morice River System, 1978-1980
A bio-manageability study of chinook and coho salmon was carried out on the Morice River near Houston, B.C. from the fall of 1978 to mid-1980. The objective of the program was to code wire tag at least 50,000 chinook fry from the 1978 and 1979 broods and as... -
Biological Assessment of Skeena River Coho Salmon
This paper provides data on juvenile densities throughout the Skeena watershed in the year following record low escapements and documents the responses in escapement to the conservation measures taken in 1998. For the Babine Lake coho aggregate, advice is... -
Bioassessment of Streams in North Central British Columbia Using the Referenc...
In this project, a bioassessment tool known as the Reference Condition Approach (RCA) was developed for north-central British Columbia. In the RCA, benthic invertebrates and habitat descriptors from a large number of reference sites are used to build a... -
Babine Steelhead - A Future
The project was designed to capture wild juveniles of these species during or before their seaward migration, and mark them by inserting a coded wire tag in their snout and removing the adipose fin. The marked fish would then be released. In this manner,... -
Babine Lake: Data From Chemical and Biological Surveys, May 83, May 84, July 84
Water quality data were obtained in May 1983, May 1984, and July 1984 in Babine Lake to determine if there was any impact from the Bell Copper Mine discharges. Physical and chemical water quality data were collected associated with taxonomic and metal... -
