Three small streams north of Fort Liard will be surveyed to determine if fish are present or absent and to assess the fish habitat in each creek. Two of these creeks are tributaries to the Liard River and are located near the P66 well site. Fisherman Creek, the tributary draining into Fisherman Lake from the Liard Range will also be surv...
