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...

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...

The objectives of this plan are three-fold. First, the plan describes the methods that will be used to quantify the amount of compensatory fish habitat needed to offset the...

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...

This survey provides an assessment of fish presence/absence in Fenton Creek and its adjacent tributaries. It identifies stream gradients and reasons for obstructed fish passage,...

The survey was conducted on microsatellite variation at 12 loci in approximately 1,360 juvenile Chinook salmon in the Skeena River drainage in northwestern British Columbia;...

During the spring and summer of 1976, two investigations funded through the salmonid enhancement program were conducted on the steelhead trout of the Kispiox River. The first...

This project assessed key pressures on salmon habitat in the Skeena River estuary. The authors used benchmarks to assess the status of salmon habitat indicators and identified...

This report is a follow-up to an earlier volume (Gottesfeld et al. 2002) which was prepared as part of the Skeena Watershed Fish Sustainability Plan process. The earlier report,...

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...

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...

In order to determine the levels of abundance between juvenile and adult salmon, the researchers examine sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, on both groups of salmon from the...

This document presents the available salmonid resource information as well as the status of development activity and physiographic conditions within the Skeena River basin...

In 1997, the British Columbia Conservation Foundation (BCCF) was contracted by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) to produce a map that would allow licensees and...

A collaborative research team of academic and First Nation scientists has been studying the Skeena River estuary ecosystem and its juvenile salmon. After 4 years, 100 boat days,...

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...

In 1966 the Director of the Nanaimo Biological Station was requested by the Fisheries Research Board to prepare a report on research required to provide a basis for the...

This eleventh report of an annual series updates the state of physical, biological, and selected fishery resources of Canadian Pacific marine ecosystems.

The Panel’s report is divided into five major topic areas: (1) the fish and the fisheries, (2) habitat status and protection, (3) critical monitoring needs for future...

This report provides results from Step 3, Identifying Metrics and Benchmarks for habitat indicators being considered by DFO for Strategy 2 of the Wild Salmon Policy.
