Summary: This study is a field assessment which consists of targeted visits to selected sites, identified within the delineated barge landing sites and drilling target areas. Overland access routes will be visited, though these corridors have not been determined at this time. Information collected during the summer studies will be used in planning and determining appropriate locations for winter drilling a...

Summary: Increased industrial development across the Northwest Territories is creating the necessity to reclaim and revegetate the land during and/or after development. Land management policy recognizes the need to maintain ecosystems, biodiversity, and habitat, and is implementing stringent policies for land use. Northern environments are particularly slow to recover from disturbance because of the short ...

Summary: The proposed research program involves terrestrial studies in the Gwich'in Settlement Area to be conducted during 2002. Initial Vegetation investigations were conducted in summer 2001 to classify vegetation along the study corridor. This classification was essentially completed in the Gwich'in Settlement Area. Vegetation studies during 2002 will focus on locating areas of rare or uncommon plants...

Summary: Vegetation communities along the pipeline route and over other parts of the Project area would be provisionally mapped from aerial photographs. A field survey would be undertaken with an emphasis on identifying rare plants. The study area is in the Caribou Hills IBP site 4-9, which was in part proposed because of its rare flora. July is an optimum time for a single survey. Also transect sampling ...
