Objective(s): To describe the terrestrial and aquatic environment in the Yellowknife River between Prosperous Lake and Bluefish Lake.
Project Description: The objective is to describe the terrestrial and aquatic environment in the Yellowknife River between Prosperous Lake and Bluefish Lake. This may include investigating vegetation, water quality, benthic invertebrate populations, and fish. The results will be used to determine the most suitable means of fish habitat compensation, to guide mitigation during construction of the new dam for Bluefish Hydro, and to monitor water quality during construction. Surveys of the aquatic environment may be required to investigate fish habitat, population, migration and spawning, and water quality and benthic invertebrate populations. Terrestrial surveys may be required to recording local vegetation and wildlife observations. To investigate fish in the affected area, bathymetry, gill netting, minnow trapping and snorkeling may be conducted. Some fish collection may be required to determine age, health and reproductive status of spawni... Show more
